Hey everyone, I hope your weekend is going well! It’s supposed to snow again here tonight so I’m not too thrilled with that but we did have a few days of warm weather. My house even heated by a degree on it’s own for once, I was so pleased! Snow may be coming this week but I’m still feeling like Spring is in the air, especially since I’ve been filling our home with fruity and floral candles. Today’s post is my Top 5 Candles for Spring!
#1: Pineapple Mango by Bath & Body Works
This candle has so much throw, it makes our whole main room smell nice. You can really smell both the Pineapple and the Mango, it’s like a tropical vacation! It also has notes of raspberry. I’ve been burning this one a lot in the background when I film for Youtube! 🙂
#2: Belle & Bloom Coconut Milk Mango
I absolutely adore coconut scents. This candle is more subtle than the Pineapple Mango but I’ve been burning it quite a bit lately. I often keep it in the office because it’s potent enough to make a small room smell nice but not enough to fill up our living room. The coconut really comes through! It has notes of “island pineapple, freshly-sliced mango, lush papaya, and coconut milk infused with sugarcane and Tahitian vanilla”.
#3 Illume Melon Crème Sorbet
This candle can be purchased at Chapters. It was on the pricey side at $19CAD but I smelled it in store and absolutely had to take it home. It seems to be very slow burning as well, I’ve burned it for several hours and there isn’t a huge dent in the wax. The scent has notes of “cantaloupe, watermelon, grapefruit, floral accord, red fruits, musk and coconut milk” according to the online product description. I guess I gravitate towards coconut!
#4 Voluspa Amaranth & Jasmine
Voluspa makes some of my favourite candles. Their Ebony & Peach candle is my absolute favourite, I have four of them in case the scent ever gets discontinued! This amaranth & jasmine candle is the perfect Spring frangrance, the floral notes are really pretty and remind me that soon I’ll be able to grow flowers in my backyard again.
#5: Voluspa Apple & Blue Clover
I remember getting this candle as a gift at some point last year, I can’t remember when. These mini voluspa tins have such a great throw, they fill up a room with scent just like the 3 wick Bath & Body Works candles. This candle has notes of apple, magnolia, and oakmoss so of course it makes my Spring Candles list!

I forgot that B&BW has candles 😮 and I’m usually very picky about scents whether they’re candles or incense. So far I haven’t bought any candles that I loved enough to repurchase. I was browsing the candle isle at Ross today and didn’t grab any of them because I didn’t like them lol.

Candles are all I buy there these days! There are only a few that I absolutely repurchase all the time, and everything is seasonal so once I love a scent it’s gone 🙁
They also seem to smell different when burning as opposed to smelling them in store
That’s too bad. That’s probably the only thing I hate about seasonal items, you never know if they will be bringing them back LOL
But that’s good to know. I’ll have to try getting a few from B&BW to try.
I don’t know why, but I can never make candles throw scents, or if I do, it’s very faint – even the 3-wick BBW ones! Like am I doing something wrong or something?? haha. Frustrates the heck out of me so I’ve stopped buying candles. I do like the way they all smell in the jar though, LOL. I love how PRETTY candles are these days, though! All of your picks sound so lovely!

Lol really? I don’t think that’s anything you’re doing wrong, I’ve had a 3 wick candles or two that wasn’t very strong. I also put my candles up high on top of a 5″ book shelf so my cats don’t stick their faces in the flames 😅 So maybe the height helps it waft to the rest of the house 🤔 Candle packaging is getting so good lately, B&BW has been really stepping up their game and voluspa candles are always pretty. The melon sorbet candle also had a version that came in a little pink ice cream dish!
A lot of these candles are making me hungry 😂 The coconut one sounds really nice!
Author
haha all those fruity and coconut scents, I love them!
Oh my gosh, these all sound amazing! I’ve been on such a candle kick lately. I might have to pick up some new ones now! ☺️
Author
It’s always time for more candles! I’m trying not to go crazy with all the new B&BW candles that are out right now, I want them all xD
Right? I might have to go stock up soon! haha
I would love the first 3 scents for sure! I was just in BBW, but I only got their Warm Vanilla sugar spray and body scrub!
Author
Oooh I love the warm vanilla sugar scent. I used to buy that body wash all the time!
I bought it to use so I don’t use up all of my philosophy Fresh Cream Warm Cashmere scent. It doesn’t seem to last long, and I’m constantly spraying it all over myself. (warm vanilla sugar) I wish I could find a scent just like the philosophy one. I go through it too fast! But the body scrub is awesome!
The body butter had a nasty after smell.
Author
Yeah the fragrance mists don’t last the longest. I have the Japanese cherry blossom scent and it’s the same thing. Eww I’ll stay away from the body butter!
Yeah, it’s rather nasty!
I’m loving multi wick candles at the moment! So cute!
Author
Me too! They really fill up a room with fragrance 🙂 Do you have a favourite scent?
I really love like the fresh linen and cotton scents I’m not really a fan of crazy smells as I find them overpowering x
Author
that’s understandable, I love the bath & body works sea island cotton scent, it reminds me of fresh laundry!
Ooo that’s sounds nice!
