The Best Scented Candles for Summer

Summer is a great time to burn candles. Bluecorn’s long-burning, pure beeswax candles bring gorgeous ambiance and illumination to long evenings on the patio, while our clean, potent scented candles help keep things fresh indoors — even if you have to batten down the hatches and throw in the air conditioning. 

Here are a few of our favorite summer candles: 

Aromática Scented Candles

Made with vegan coconut wax and clean fragrance, our Aromática candles burn longer and offer more hot throw (scent while burning) than standard scented candles, without the headache! They’re available in four Colorado-inspired scents and come in gorgeous, recycled glass candle holders.

Our favorite Aromática scent for summer is also our best-seller: La Mesa. This scented candle blends top notes of basil and cannabis with a base of soil and fir for a scent that is freshness itself — it was even featured in Apartment Guide's Ultimate Guide to Summer Scents!

Botanica Scented Beeswax Candles 

For folks who are looking to steer clear of any chemical fragrance at all, our Botanica line is always the way to go. We blend pure essential oils and botanicals with raw beeswax to make scented candles that are subtle, nontoxic and long-burning.

Our Botanica scented beeswax candles are available in a variety of shapes and sizes including pillars and recycled glassware. During the summer months, we like to opt for glassware as it can easily transition outdoors as needed. 

The Eucalyptus and Orange candle offers fabulous clean, juicy fragrance during the summer, while our  Tangerine and Geranium scented candle keeps things floral without becoming too sweet.

Citronella Candles

Made with pure citronella essential oil and vegan wax, these candles are stronger, cleaner and cuter than traditional citronella candles. Available in a rainbow of fun hues for a limited time! 

Pure Beeswax Votives in Recycled Glass Holders 

If you’re looking for versatile, pure beeswax candlelight that transitions effortlessly from indoors to out, then votives in glassware are an awesome choice. Each of these little candles offers about a dozen hours of burn time and their holders are available in numerous colors and styles. 

Thin Beeswax Tapers in Solid Brass Holders 

The newest edition to the Bluecorn family of candles, our thin beeswax tapers are tall and elegant – perfect for light, minimal summer decor and for shorter candle-burning sessions. These gorgeous, hand-dipped tapers are also a fabulous addition to morning meditation rituals!
