18 best WoodWick candles we'd burn for hours at a time
So. Damn. Good
You've probably heard of, or seen, WoodWick candles - the super popular brand owned by Yankee Candle. Thanks to their natural wooden wicks that create sounds of a crackling fire when you burn them, each product is completely unique, and we're *obsessed*. With seemingly endless scents to choose from, the brand has an almost cult-like following, with fans claiming they never need to buy any other brand. Here's everything you need to know about WoodWick...
How long should you burn a WoodWick candle?
This all depends on the size of the WoodWick candle you buy, but for some context:
- Mini hourglass candles can burn for up to 20 hours
- Ellipse candles can burn for up to 50 hours
- Medium hourglass candles can burn for up to 60 hours
- Large hourglass candles can burn for up to 130 hours
That's a lot of hours.
Do WoodWick candles burn clean?
Yes, the candles are made from a soy wax that produces a cleaner, virtually soot-free burn. Burn for enough time to melt the entire top of the wax on your first burn to ensure an even use.
Tempted? These are the 21 best WoodWick candle scents, in our opinion...
Dreaming of warming up by the cabin log fire to escape the cold outside? Make every day feel as cosy as that sounds with this scent.
With notes of cedar leaf, pine needle, amber and embers, this candle is about as cosy as they come. Add in a crackling wick, and you won't want to leave the house all winter.
A linen candle is great for removing food and general living smells from your home, and this one has gorgeous hints of lemon and orange to refresh the entire place.
Um, who doesn't want to be chilling by the coast right now? Granted, we can't spend our lives swimming in the ocean and sunbathing on the sand, but if our house can smell like a beach all year round, surely that's the next best thing, right?
Fresh and clean, with a hint of rose to add to the scent, it's not overpowering or sweet.
Designed to capture the scent of a cosy evening by a warm fire, this candle not only smells great, it looks good too. Almost too good to burn, in fact.
Feel like you're in the midst of a cheesy Christmas rom-com with this cinnamon chai candle.
We can already feel how fresh this WoodWick flavour is going to smell. The colour of the candle is also super cute - bound to look great perched on a windowsill, fireplace or table.
What exactly is Stone Washed Suede, I hear you ask? Well, it's got notes of pepper, jasmine and amber - which is all you need to know. Sounds divine.
This is a pretty sweet and warm scent with toffee undertones and sweet candied orange notes. Honestly, if we could we'd eat it.
We'd all ideally be on the beach sipping a mimosa, however that 9-5 really puts a stop to it most of the time. The next best thing: light this candle with notes of citrus and sparkling wine to be transported to the seaside.
Sweet vanilla is instantly warming and comforting. This vanilla bean scent is a bestseller for the brand, and with good reason.
If you favour fruity scents but want something that works for winter, this spiced blackberry candle is the one for you.
OK, so this flavour is meant to truly capture "the essence of fresh-cut fir on a crisp winter morning." Ooh, it's making us feel all warm and fuzzy inside!
If you love nothing more than the smell of coffee, this candle could be for you. Beware though: it's sweet!
The smell of a calming retreat 24/7? Yes. Please. Sea salt, lavender spa, cotton, white tea and jasmine are all blended together to create an intriguing experience that is designed to - well - calm you.
Live out your Barbiecore dream with this violet coloured candle, perfect to accessorise your home with.
Use WoodWick's petite candle range to experiment with different scents to see what you like, and what floats your boat a little less.
