The global scented candles market is expected to register an impressive CAGR during the forecast period. Home renovation and home decorating projects have increased along with an increase in disposable money. Since the pandemic has caused individuals to spend more time at home, people have a growing desire to make their homes comfortable places to live. One of the consumer trends is sculpture-scented candles or candles with different shapes.

In essence, scented candles are used not only for their pleasant scents but also for their capacity to elevate moods and promote well-being. Candles with scents can be utilized in both households and businesses. The demand for scented candles in the residential sector has been fueled by increased home remodeling and design projects. Businesses such as spas regularly utilize scented candles because of their therapeutic qualities.


To increase their market shares, market participants provide unique scents that appeal to their customers. Many businesses have also raised their R&D expenditures to produce better products.


Scented candles are utilized in retail establishments to give clients a unique and enjoyable shopping experience. The scent of the candles can cover unpleasant smells, enhance the air quality, and improve the shop’s ambiance. Scented candles can also be used as a marketing tool to advertise goods and services. For example, a retailer might promote its summer sales using a citrus-scented candle.


Online stores utilize scented candles to provide customers with a better shopping experience. Around 6.37 billion people (80.76% of the world’s population) will be using smartphones in 2021, according to Bankmycell. With the help of online shopping, items can be purchased by customers when they are at home or at work. Through the internet, customers may shop more easily and conveniently. The transactions can also be canceled with ease. In addition, it saves time and effort.

Increasing Trend of Eco-Friendly Products Fuels Market Growth
People from all around the world are turning toward the use of eco-friendly candles due to growing environmental concerns. Additionally, there has been a significant increase in the use of candles for house decoration. These elements produce significant sales opportunities for businesses engaged in the global scented candle market. Since organic candles are naturally free of toxins and are made with organic and natural materials, they have replaced mainly paraffin wax candles in recent years. These candles are also well-known as "green candles" since they are made from natural ingredients such as beeswax and soy wax. Both elements are natural, neither polluting the environment nor releasing poisonous gas when lit. Manufacturers of scented candles have outstanding growth potential worldwide due to a significant rise in consumer knowledge of the availability of their products.

Increasing Partnerships Among Companies Propels Market Growth
To create a unique candle with the ideal smell for ice cream enthusiasts, Moose Tracks Ice Cream announced its partnership with Wax Poetic Candle Bar, a Michigan-based candle production firm, in June 2021. The vanilla-scented candle seduces the buyer with hints of peanut butter cups at USD 24.95. Like the ice cream flavor, the candle has a vanilla smell with notes of peanut butter cups and the famous Moose Tracks fudge. It’s the ideal uncommon present for the ice cream enthusiast. It is a premium grade 11 oz candle with a burn period of more than 70 hours that are made of soy wax, wicks made of organic cotton, and clean burning smells. It is manually poured into a substantial glass container with a black lid and rubber seal.

Product Launches Fuel the Market Growth
Companies are launching new products to attract consumers, which fuels the demand for the scented candles market worldwide. For instance, "You, "-a scented candle, was released by Glossier in Nov 2022 for USD 36.22. The new item replaces the tiny "You" candle that was included in the Christmas package from the previous year. The new candles come in glass containers that are red and pink, the brand’s emblematic colors, and are stamped with the initials "G." The top notes of the "You" candle will be the well-known ambrette seeds, ambrox, iris, and musk. Additionally, in 2022, Newell Brands launched a new candle brand Friday Collective. Friday Collective is a new brand that has been introduced by Newell Brands, the company behind Yankee Candle and other home fragrance products. The new line of scented candles is meant to evoke optimism and excitement through their brilliant hues and novel scent pairings.
