I'm a prolific candle buyer, and you'll always find me making the most of the sales to stock up my supply. But if your goal is to make your home smell amazing, scented candles aren't the only option. 

So, while you're shopping the candle sales, keep an eye out for these other buys that are just as useful in providing a passive, ambient fragrance for your home. Ask anyone with a great-smelling home and they'll tell you - it's all about layering, and you need more than just candles to do that. 

These are the things I recommend you shop for the best-smelling home, and the best deals you'll find on them right now.

Hugh is Livingetc.com’s editor. With 8 years in the interiors industry under his belt, he has the nose for what people want to know about re-decorating their homes. He prides himself as an expert trend forecaster, visiting design fairs, showrooms and keeping an eye out for emerging designers to hone his eye. He joined Livingetc back in 2022 as a content editor, as a long-time reader of the print magazine, before becoming its online editor. Hugh has previously spent time as an editor for a kitchen and bathroom magazine, and has written for “hands-on” home brands such as Homebuilding & Renovating and Grand Designs magazine, so his knowledge of what it takes to create a home goes beyond the surface, too. Though not a trained interior designer, Hugh has cut his design teeth by managing several major interior design projects to date, each for private clients. He's also a keen DIYer — he's done everything from laying his own patio and building an integrated cooker hood from scratch, to undertaking plenty of creative IKEA hacks to help achieve the luxurious look he loves in design, when his budget doesn't always stretch that far.
