For a sophisticated lemon scent with the added zing of mint, NEST comes through. The candle vessel is gorgeous and the scent is divine. The fragrance is a bit on the stronger side and carries really well, so you definitely should keep that in mind.

For a different kind of lemony fragrance, DW Home’s Lemon Bergamot is a pure winner. It has the fresh, lemony notes with warm, earthy notes and the citrusy scent of bergamot. The jar is beautiful, too!

Yankee Candle

Sicilian Lemon

Love or hate Yankee Candle, Sicilian Lemon is pretty darn fresh and wonderful. I’ve found it’s best to burn this one in smaller rooms for the best scent throw but oh man…. it’s a winner!

5

NEOM

Feel Refreshed

NEOM Feel Refreshed Candle
This is the fragrance equivalent to a tall glass of ice-cold sparkling tonic water with a twist of citrus peel sipped in a Mediterranean herb garden and is flooded with quenching vitality. Photo credit: NEOM
The candles from NEOM Wellbeing are usually pretty fragrant and Feel Refreshed is no exception. This is a blend of a bright, tart lemon with the earthiness of rosemary. It is really energizing and great for gifting!
