The Evolution of Amber Scented Candles
Amber has long been a beloved note in the world of candles and perfumery; cherished for its warm, resinous, and slightly sweet aroma that evokes a sense of comfort and timelessness. Traditionally, amber scented candles have been rich and heavy, often paired with smoky or woody notes to create a deeply atmospheric experience. However, in 2024 it’s all about a more modern take on a classic. This year's candle trend is less about suave smokiness, and more about a sophisticated sensuality.
As we’re calling it, ‘Seductive Ambers’ capture the romance of the amber we all know and love, but adds a new and alluring twist. Imagine the golden warmth of an amber candle, but more luminous, with the introduction of unexpected notes - think fruity florals and edible gourmands - that elevate the scent from traditional to tantalizing. It’s amber, but sexier, more nuanced, and designed to captivate in a way that feels both intimate and enticing.

Yet, its new modern undertones, lightened and made more seductive, align with today’s aesthetic trends - where there’s a growing appreciation for tactility and authenticity.
