Scented Candle Gift Sets

Scented candle gift sets are a popular token of love, thanks, or appreciation. With many sets and gift arrangements to choose from, there is an aromatic candle gift perfect to light up anyone’s day.

There are several ways that scented candles may be packaged together as a coordinated gift set.

• Identical Scents: The same candle scent may be found in different sizes and shapes of candles for a lovely arrangement that is a delight for the nose.
• Related Scents: The most common scented candle gifts include several candles in popular scents that coordinate well with one another, such as baking aromas or floral blends.
• Coordinated Colors: Different scented candles in similar colors – different shades of purple or themed patriotic colors, for example – are often packaged as an attractive gift.

The most popular way to arrange scented candles as gifts is to coordinate pleasing scents. With hundreds of different scents to choose from, there are limitless ways to combine different aromas. Some of the most pleasing options include:

• Fruits: Strawberry, huckleberry, blueberry, apple, pear, and other fruit and berry scents are a sweet treat for the nose.
• Baking: Cakes, frosting, cookies, chocolate, and other homemade desserts are deliciously nostalgic scents to package together.
• Tropical: Whisk your senses to the tropics with pineapple, plumeria, ocean, mango, and other exotic scents.
• Floral: Rose, lavender, lilac, hibiscus, daffodil, hydrangea, and other floral scents are some of the most familiar and most widely available.
• Holiday: Familiar scents such as peppermint, cranberry, and evergreen for Christmas or pumpkin spice, hot cider, and cinnamon for Thanksgiving are always suitable holiday candle gifts.
• Weddings: Light floral scents, buttercream wedding cake icing, and romantic blends are popular for wedding candle gift sets.
• Babies: Fresh cotton, linen, baby powder, and other gentle scents are often used for baby shower gifts.
• Aromatherapy: Green tea, chamomile, ginger, and other therapeutic scents can create a thoughtful aromatherapy gift. Many aromatherapy scented candle gift sets also include specialized blends of popular scents to promote wellness, relaxation, energy, peace, or other desired moods.
• Natural: Ocean, cut grass, snow, water, and other natural scents are refreshing options for any gift.

Scented candles can be packaged in any number of ways to create a stunning gift. Keepsake boxes and gift baskets are especially popular, though less elaborate gift sets may simply come bound together with a ribbon or cord.

Some gift sets may be packaged with a variety of related items, aromatic or not. A baking scented set, for example, may include a themed apron, wooden spoons, or recipe cards. An aromatherapy gift might include a loofah, body lotion, essential oils, and massage stones for the ultimate in pampering.

Most retailers who carry a selection of scented candles will also offer at least basic gift sets. More elaborate themed gift sets can often be found from specialty candle stores and gift boutiques. Online retailers also offer a wide range of gift sets for all occasions. Popular merchants include:

Coordinated sets can cost as little as $10 for a small votive gift or more than $50 for a larger, more elaborate package. Candle sizes and quantities, the types of candles (handmade, soy, etc.), the quality of the scent, and extra gift items all impact the price.

It is easy to make scented candle gifts for any occasion by following these simple steps:

1. Choose the scent(s). Coordinate scents with the purpose of the gift, the holiday, or the recipient’s favorite aromas for the best effect.
2. Choose candle types and sizes. Votive, tea light, and pillar candles are the most popular for gift sets, while adding tapers, tins, or jars can be unusual and distinctive.
3. Arrange candles in a container. Use a wicker basket, fabric bag, quilted box, or other special container to make the gift stand out. Add filler material, such as crinkled crepe or tissue, for color and spacing.
4. Add accessory gifts. Small coordinating items – a rose pin to go with rose scented candles, for example – can make the gift extraordinary. Generic accessories such as a silk flower, matches, or candle holders are also excellent choices.
5. Wrap the package. A finishing bow and card can turn even a simple package into an elegant gift set.

Scented candles are appropriate for many different occasions, including a housewarming, wedding, new baby, birthday, wedding, or holiday. Simple gift sets are also suitable as a hostess or thank you gift, or even just because.

When giving candles as a gift, however, be certain that the candles can be used. Candle gift baskets are not suitable for a high school graduation, for example, since many soon-to-be college students will not be able to light candles in dormitories or other campus housing units. Candles are also inappropriate to give to young children or individuals with allergies to heavy scents or candle fumes.
