One of our favorite ways to enjoy candles during the summer is by burning complementary scents together. Layering fragrances throughout your home creates a more custom experience — almost like building the atmosphere of a memory. Some combinations feel bright and energizing, while others feel soft, nostalgic, or relaxing after a long summer day.
This season, we’ve been especially inspired by pairings that feel colorful, fresh, and connected to summer moments. Here are a few of our favorite combinations from the Summer of Color and Signature collections.
Summer Garden + Citrus
Summer Garden is filled with notes inspired by fresh herbs, tomato vines, greenery, and sun-warmed gardens. Pairing it with a bright citrus candle instantly lifts the fragrance and creates something that feels incredibly fresh and alive.
Together, the combination smells like:
-
walking through a thriving garden in the middle of July
-
freshly picked herbs on the kitchen counter
-
lemon slices in sparkling water
-
sunshine pouring through open windows
This pairing feels clean, vibrant, and perfect for kitchens or daytime burning. This is one of my all time favorite pairings!

Summer Garden + Strawberry Rhubarb
This combination feels like summer nostalgia in candle form.
The earthy green notes from Summer Garden balance beautifully with the juicy sweetness of Strawberry Rhubarb. The result is fresh without being overly sweet — like bringing home produce from the farmers market and setting it down beside a bouquet of fresh herbs.
Together, the combination smells like:
-
homemade jam simmering on the stove
-
berry picking on a warm afternoon
-
garden baskets overflowing with fresh produce
-
long summer weekends at home
This pairing feels cozy, cheerful, and effortlessly summery.

Tropical Citrus + Coconut Lime
If summer had an official vacation scent, this would be it.
Tropical Citrus brings bright citrus, agave, and tropical fruit notes while Coconut Lime adds creamy coconut and zesty lime. Burning them together creates a layered fragrance that feels playful, juicy, and instantly transports you somewhere warm.
Together, the combination smells like:
-
beach vacations and pool days
-
frozen drinks and salty air
-
sunscreen, citrus cocktails, and sunshine
-
relaxing on the patio at golden hour
This pairing is bold, refreshing, and made for hot summer evenings.

driving through the countryside in late summer

lavender fields and roadside berry stands

fresh picked berries in the kitchen

cool evenings after a warm day

One of the best things about candles is that there’s no wrong way to enjoy them. Mixing fragrances allows you to create a mood that feels personal to you and your space. Sometimes the best combinations are the unexpected ones.
Summer is colorful, messy, bright, sweet, herbal, nostalgic, and alive — and we wanted these pairings to capture all of those feelings.
