4. Best Spa-Like Candle

The notes in this candle are outstanding, with flowering bamboo leading the charge, followed by white florals, sparkling citrus, and fresh green accords. What you're left with is a unique scent that smells like something right out of a spa — fresh, earthy, and completely relaxing.
