I know I'm probably offending many fragrance traditionalists, but I'm just not a fan of rose-scented candles. It's a tad too powdery and almost jam-like for my taste. But that's not to say I don't appreciate floral fragrances in general.
Some of the best candles in my rotation for spring feature bloom-led notes that are a little more luxurious and definitely less on the nose (pardon the pun) for the nose. Rather than flooding your home with notes of this romantic red flower, try introducing scents like lily, freesia, peony, tulip, and honeysuckle instead.
