"With everything you want and nothing you don’t, this 100 percent soy wax, essential oil-infused non-toxic candle may be the closest you’ll get to an actual love potion. Calming and brightening, it combines notes of jasmine, lavender, and mandarin for a scent profile that will make you feel like you’re nose deep in a bouquet of wildflowers. It'll complement another gift nicely, and pairs especially well with a vase full of fresh blooms."

"I’ve been a fan of Brooklyn Candle Studio for years. Sadly my favorite scent, Tobacco (which smells the way I imagine the man of my dreams smells), was recently discontinued. But they have a wide array of the warm, spicy and smoky scents that I love. They’re richly scented but delicate enough not to aggravate my scent-triggered migraines (and I find the fellas like them, too). My favorites are  Woodsmoke (for those of us with non-working fireplaces); Sunday Morning (the perfect foil for weekend mimosas); Hinoki (the one to take on your ski cabin getaway); Apple Cider (divine on a cold winter’s day); Brooklyn (great for a craft cocktail loving person in your life)."—Laura Sampedro, deputy managing editor

"A candle’s ability to elevate our mood and enliven a room is undeniable. Brooklyn Candle Studio’s mission is to make luxury, minimalist candles using only the best ingredients (100% soy wax, eco-friendly, and vegan). Inspired by nature, travel, and memories, their heavenly scents include Kyoto (smells like a cedar forest after a rain), Santorini (an island orchard of ripe fig trees), Sunday Morning (citrus fruits and fresh flowers), and Love Potion (calming lavender, jasmine, and mandarin). Check out their gift sets, which include a fragrance trio, travel candles, and chic votive holders."

"Brooklyn Candle Studio’s Holiday Edition Noir candles are ultra chic and the perfect companion in a modern minimalist home. Packaged in luxe foil-stamped black textured boxes with gold foil-framed labels for a gilded touch, the limited edition series ushers in the seasonal spirit in four scents of Cassis, Cinder, Cypres and Pepper.

Tip: Burn during those virtual soirées to set the mood for you and your online guests."

"For the person who thinks a candle will fix all their problems: Don’t argue with their logic and just help keep up their ritual with a steady delivery of new candles. Every month, they’ll receive a full-size seasonal candle, a travel candle, and a matchbox."
