Candle Gifts for Men: Woodsy, Fresh and Spiced Scents

Plenty of men like candles; the trick is matching the scent to what he already likes. Start with the kind of smell, then pick a size.

Woodsy and evergreen

Fir, cedar and the outdoors.

  • Fresh Balsam: fir, balsam and cedar. 4 oz amber jar, 9 oz amber jar, 11 oz glass tumbler and 16 oz glass jar, from $12.
  • White Sage & Lavender: lavender, white sage and cedar. 9 oz amber jar, from $20.

Fresh and clean

For someone who likes a room to smell clear rather than sweet.

  • Sea Breeze: citrus, lavender and cedar. 4 oz amber jar, 9 oz amber jar, 11 oz glass tumbler and 16 oz glass jar, from $12.
  • Eucalyptus Lavender Herb: eucalyptus, lavender and herbs. 4 oz amber jar, 9 oz amber jar, 11 oz glass tumbler and 16 oz glass jar, from $12.
  • Clean Cotton: linen, cotton blossom and lemon. 9 oz amber jar, from $20.

Warm and spiced

Cinnamon, clove and a little sweetness, good for cold evenings.

  • Comfort Spice: cinnamon, brown sugar and praline. 4 oz amber jar, 9 oz amber jar, 11 oz glass tumbler and 16 oz glass jar, from $12.
  • Apple Harvest: apple, cinnamon and clove. 9 oz amber jar, from $20.
  • Cinnamon & Vanilla: cinnamon, cream and vanilla. 9 oz amber jar, from $20.

Deep and smooth

Not every vanilla is sugary.

  • Vanilla Bean: vanilla bean, tonka and cocoa. 4 oz amber jar, 9 oz amber jar, 11 oz glass tumbler and 16 oz glass jar, from $12.

Vanilla Bean has tonka and cocoa under the vanilla, which keeps it warm rather than dessert-sweet.

Not sure what he likes?

Think about what he already uses. Someone with a cedar or pine cologne will likely enjoy Fresh Balsam; someone who keeps the windows open, Sea Breeze. If you really can't tell, build a sampler of four 4 oz amber jars for $44 and let him find a favorite. Or take our scent quiz with him in mind.

Pick a size

The 16 oz glass jar at $26 holds 13.75 oz of wax and burns for about 60–80 hours: a main gift. The 9 oz amber jar at $20 has a black lid and looks finished without wrapping. The 4 oz amber jar at $12 fits in a stocking.

Order in time for Christmas

Every candle is made to order: 2–5 business days to make and ship, then 2–5 business days in the mail. Our production partner expects US orders placed by 10 a.m. Mountain time on December 15 to arrive before Christmas. That's their estimate, not a guarantee, so earlier is safer. Shipping is free on orders of $50 or more.
