There’s something magical about transforming your home into a cosy sanctuary this time of year. The darker nights, warm, spicy drinks and festivities make autumn the perfect season to light a candle and settle into the warmth. A luxury scented candle doesn’t just add a calming flicker of light to your space, it fills it with fragrance, setting the mood for any autumnal occasion! So, whether you’re planning an autumnal dinner party, a quiet film night with family, or you simply want to enjoy a peaceful evening by yourself, here are four ways to style your Melt candles that will bring that perfect touch of autumnal charm into whatever you have planned!
A stunning table centrepiece
Nothing creates an autumnal dinner party ambience like the soft glow of a candle flickering over your dining table, casting a warm ambience as your guests gather and chatter the night away. Our Nutmeg & Vetiver candle is ideal for this setting; with notes of nutmeg, vetiver, and guaiac wood reminiscent of warm, spicy woodsmoke, it fills the air with a subtle, sweet, woodsy aroma that feels just like a cosy fireside. And when paired with simple glass candle holders and some autumnal decor scattered with pinecones and gourds, these details come together to form a stunning autumnal centrepiece that stands out and complements the warmth of your festive feast.
A welcoming mantelpiece
The mantelpiece serves as a focal point in your living room, making it the perfect spot to create a cosy atmosphere for either a relaxing night alone or a fun board game night with friends. Our Nocturne candle is the ideal addition to this space, infusing it with a sophisticated warmth that sets the mood for any occasion.
Nocturne’s subtle sophistication allows it to blend seamlessly with darker evenings – hence the name! With a delicate blend of amber, patchouli, and sandalwood, Nocturne offers an earthy, aromatic spice that is both soothing and inviting. This candle’s gentle fragrance invites you to unwind after a long day, making it perfect for curling up with a good book or journaling your thoughts. Display it on your mantel with candle holders at different heights, surrounded by seasonal decors like small pumpkins or an autumnal garland for an air of relaxation that fits beautifully with the darker evenings, a plush throw and the crackling of a fireplace!
A fabulous fireplace
If you cherish the cosy ambience of a fire but prefer the charm of candles, an unused fireplace serves as a perfect backdrop for the Autumn candle. This delightful candle encapsulates the essence of all things autumnal. It transports you to crisp autumn days, where leaves crunch underfoot and the air is filled with the promise of festive gatherings and cosy evenings spent wrapped in blankets, sipping warm cider.
You can arrange several of these candles in varying heights within the fireplace, creating a layered glow that emulates a flickering fire. This setup is perfect for cosy nights with a good book or quiet film nights, filling the room with the unmistakable scents of autumn. So, light up this seasonal scent in your fireplace, and let it provide a warm, flickering glow that captures everything we adore about autumn!
A whimsical windowsill display
Windowsills are perfect for smaller moments of light, and the Cashmere candle brings a soft, comforting fragrance that feels just right for this setting. With gentle notes of jasmine, rose, and vanilla on a base of musk, this scent wraps your home in warmth without overwhelming. It’s ideal for early mornings or quiet evenings, with a luxurious aroma that lingers beautifully. Place it in a hurricane glass to keep the flame safe, and enjoy how the candle’s glow enhances the view from your window creating a soft, peaceful vibe.
