We are in the age of celebrity brands. From Courteney Cox’s home goods brand Homecourt to Selena Gomez’s beauty brand Rare Beauty, the market is gradually being flooded with celebrity brands trying to penetrate our everyday life, and that isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Take candles, for example; we all love a good, scented candle with health-conscious ingredients, right? Now imagine that your favorite celeb has created candles, whether as a standalone product or as part of a home accessory line-up, that will elevate your mood with calming fragrances. Who would say no to that?
As a candlemaker myself, I know what goes into making a candle. And it is a lot more than just scent. You need to be cautious of each ingredient’s quality, origin, and impact. When you have quality ingredients, you can focus on the place of use and intention of the candle. While you may think that all celebrity brands and candles offered by them are health and environmentally conscious, that’s not always the case. From Courteney Cox to Harry Styles, I have handpicked the best scented candles from celebrity brands that you need to try at least once.
Cece Candle From Homecourt by Courteney Cox
Courteney Cox is one of the best-liked Hollywood celebs of our time. I first saw her in Friends and immediately fell in love. Her hair, wardrobe, and OCD were too real to me. When she launched her home care brand Homecourt in 2022, the range of non-toxic products was alluring. With a handful of offerings in candles from Cox’s brand, I picked the Cece candle. It has an addictive assortment of cedarwood smoke, cinnamon, cardamom, and white leather. The soy wax blend candle has a grounding aroma with a 60-hour burn time, which comes in a ceramic vessel. A treat to the senses.
Bright, Hot Candle From Pleasing by Harry Styles
Harry Styles’ unisex lifestyle brand is one of the hottest celeb brands at the moment. The brand’s Bright, Hot is an eight-ounce candle made from a natural soy wax blend for a lasting and even burn. This candle has woody amber scent with top notes of plum and tobacco leaves balanced by mid notes of orris butter and marine accord, with dry notes of cedarwood, tonka bean absolute, vanilla absolute Madagascar, and crisp amber. But it’s not this mind-blowing blend of fragrances for me. What makes this candle a delight is the keepsake glass bowl with the lid in which the candle comes.
Sassafras Candle From Tsu Lange Yor by Troye Sivan
Australian singer-songwriter and actor Troye Sivan is the creative director of Tsu Lange Yor, a brand dedicated to the timeless exploration of beauty and belonging. The brand name Tsu Lange Yor is Yiddish for ‘to long years’ and ‘to good years,’ signifying the company’s reflection of self, sanctuary, and heritage. One of the favorite offerings from the brand is the Sassafras candle. Infused with intoxicating notes of woodfire, smoke, leather, and warm spices, the soy wax candle is free of paraffin, parabens, phthalates, and lead, and has a burn time of 42 hours.
Sage + Oat Milk Candle From Keys Soulcare by Alicia Keys
I’ll admit that I have a weirdly eclectic taste in music and mostly listen to Sinatra, Clapton, and a few bands (Guns N’ Roses, ABBA, and AC/DC) religiously, but I do have a few Alicia Keys favorites as well. Superwoman and Girl on Fire are among the ones I like by the American singer and pianist. While Keys is widely known for her soulful melodies and power ballads, not many know that she also has a holistic beauty and skincare brand, Keys Soulcare. Keys’ brand has one candle on its thoughtful roster of products. Named Sage + Oat Milk, this scented candle is not too herbal or foodie. It has a creamy, soft scent with a 65-hour burn time. This candle invites you to sit back and relax.
Each of these candles has been created with thoughtfulness and intention so you can enjoy their scents wafting through your home, washing over your senses. When buying candles from any brand, be it a celebrity brand or any other, be sure to check for natural ingredients so you bring only the best into your home.
