Black Friday candle sales are bountiful during this time of year, which is just one thing to thank the retail gods for during a hectic season. No matter which one has your candle loyalty—which, yes, is totally a thing—you’ve got plenty of options. This year, we found an abundance of Black Friday deals that include classic tea lights, votive candles, gift sets, diffusers, single-wick candles, candle holders, ones in large jars, and slim taper styles to set the table with.
From fall fragrances like apple cider and more neutral scents like green tea to jolts of refreshing grapefruit, a single scented candle can really set the mood in any space. So kindly tune out any advice you’ve heard about candles being lazy gifts, because a carefully chosen scent and style can make a special treat for anyone hosting you this year. And don’t forget to indulge on something special for your own home, though you’ll have to go with your gut on that one (or better yet, your nose).
Below, a brief moment of reprieve from all the other holiday sale blasts and the tantalizing pages of deals on Amazon for some light aromatherapy. Here are all the early Black Friday candle sales we’re shopping this year.
Shop by Brand
The internet’s superstore is filled with candles to stock up on for the holiday season. Yankee candle has dozens of three-wick candles on sale to emit a strong fragrance and create an even burn. The balsam fragrance is a best-selling option from the brand to mirror the scent of a Christmas tree (even if yours is artificial this year, the scent can help evoke the same vibes in your space).

Yankee Candle Balsam & Cedar Jar Candle
Yes that’s right, your favorite bedding brand also makes delightful fragrances. And right now, they’re on 15% off with the rest of the brand’s offerings. Basil, eucalyptus, and patchouli make up the scent profile for the brand’s “Good Intentions” fragrance, which we recommend for bringing just that to your space.

It’d be easy to do all your holiday shopping at Nordstrom this year, especially since items are always rotating into the sale section (especially for deals on designer fragrances). We combed the clearance and found this autumnal scent that diffuses notes of fresh apples and spices, like cardamom, to make your space smell like you’re in an orchard.

Thymes Simmered Cider Aromatic Votive Candle Trio
You’ll have to wait for Anthropologie to announce their official Black Friday sale plans, but expect major discounts on selected furniture and decor this holiday (plus possible extra mark downs on already on-sale items). Thankfully for us, that includes the retailer’s impressive candle lineup. We recommend scooping up a pair or two of these tapers that come in a rainbow of pastel hues as well as neutral options that feel more understated.

Anthropologie Taper Candles (Set of 2)
There’s a handful of discounted candles to peruse at Crate & Barrel right now, who also has plenty of early Black Friday furniture deals you should consider adding to cart. This votive is a mix of eucalyptus and sandalwood along with Szechuan pepper and fennel to make your space feel fresh and inviting this season. It’s housed in a minimal vessel with clean lines that will look fashionable in any season.

Eucalyptus Sandalwood Candle by Daniel Humm
Pottery Barn has you covered on great sectional sofas, bed frames built to last, and candles that bring good tidings. The Fern Grove collection will elevate your scentscape with a calming blend of fern, oakmoss, fig, watercress, cedar, vetiver, and sandalwood. Plus, the full scent trio of two candles and a diffuser will run you less than $75 with sale prices.

Pottery Barn Fern Grove Candle
Participating sellers on Etsy are offering early discounts on artisanal wares (no coupon required) for holiday shoppers as an pre-Black Friday sale of sorts. We think this cozy-weather candle made from natural soy wax is a very worthy buy if you or your giftee enjoys eucalyptus.

VivaWorkshop Hand-Poured Soy Wax Candle
If you want a holiday scent that’s fitting for a seaside escape, turn to Serena & Lily. The brand is a favorite of ours for all things coastal design, from bedding to furniture. When it comes to the “Coastal Christmas” home fragrance, you’ll take in notes of pine and fir along with cinnamon that are meant to create a sophisticated yet seasonal atmosphere.
