As summer draws to an end, the weather gets a frosty edge and the nights grow longer, one of our favourite things to do is invest in scented candles to make our homes into a cosy fragrant haven. Whether we’re hosting an autumnal dinner party or having a Halloween movie night, these scented candle brands can be ordered easily on Amazon.

1. Neom is a natural fragrance brand with a range of reed diffusers, essential oil diffusers and candles with therapeutic scents such as happiness made with neroli, mimosa and lemon, or perfect night’s sleep with English lavender, sweet basil and jasmine from the brand’s sleep range. Every candle contains a blend of essential oils.

2. Everyone’s got a favourite Yankee Candle. We love lemon lavender but as we go into autumn and winter, scents like cinnamon stick, Christmas cookie and evergreen mist are the obvious choice for filling your home with fragrances that evoke the festive season.
