Home / Holidays / The Holidays Here are Bath & Body Works’s 2021 Christmas Candle scents—and what they smell like Honest reviews of the fragrance giant's new holiday scents. By Emily Weaver November 19, 2021 Rectangle While some may view Mariah Carey’s “All I Want For Christmas Is You” as the official kick-off to holiday season, it’s Bath & Body Works’s holiday fragrance capsule for us, specifically the brand’s Christmas candle collection. Every year, Bath & Body Works surprises customers with a new launch of holiday themed scents, and this season’s lineup is giving Santa’s workshop a run for its money. This holiday season, expect to see a lot of outdoorsy and Christmas dessert and beverage inspired fragrances like Fresh Balsam, Cookies with Santa, Hot Cocoa and Cream, and Twisted Peppermint. All Bath & Body Works candles, which are available as single or 3-wick, are made with a soy wax blend and real, natural essential oils. Santa works hard, but Bath & Body Works works harder — good luck not buying one of every scent! Shop Bath & Body Works’s 2021 Christmas Candle Collection below. Single Wick Candles 1.
