After a long day at work, and a cold trudge home there’s nothing better than opening your front door and being greeted by the subtle scent of dried wood and sweet smoke.

Thankfully you can get the wonderful smell without moving house or resorting to some drastic DIY. Here are our top smokey campfire scented candle picks, perfect for bringing the cosy vibes into your home.
