The best part of autumn is enjoying the special traditions we've counted down to all year. It's the first kettle of homemade apple butter simmering on the stove. The annual trip to the fall festival. Sweaters pulled from the cedar chest. Pumpkin treat recipes passed down through generations. Lanterns glowing on the porch as the evening air turns crisp. These are the familiar moments we wait all year to welcome home.

The October Traditions Collection celebrates those cherished rituals through ten thoughtfully crafted fragrance blends inspired by kitchens filled with baking, quiet woodland walks, family gatherings, crackling fireplaces, and the simple joy of slowing down as autumn settles in.

Hand-poured in small batches using our premium soy wax, each candle is poured into our signature 16 oz amber glass vessel and finished with a gold lid. This candle has a double-wick design for a clean, even burn and exceptional fragrance throw. Our updated permanent wick process helps prevent wick migration while still allowing the jar to be reused with one of our refill kits once your candle has been enjoyed.

The October Traditions Scent Blends

Apple Butter Bakehouse (Gift Gala Original Blend)

Apple butter • Pumpkin purée • Salted honey butter • Baked spice

Before sunrise, the kettle is already bubbling away. Wooden spoons stir slow-simmered apple butter while warm pumpkin, salted honey butter, and treasured baking spices drift through the kitchen. It's the kind of recipe that's never written down quite the same way twice—only lovingly passed from one autumn to the next.

Fireside Marshmallow Pumpkin (Gift Gala Original Blend)

Toasted marshmallow • Roasted pumpkin seeds • Fireside embers • Spiced buttercream

As the fire crackles lower into the evening, marshmallows toast until perfectly golden while laughter carries beneath a blanket of stars. Smoky embers mingle with roasted pumpkin and sweet buttercream to create a fragrance that's equal parts campfire and cozy kitchen.

Autumn Ritual (Gift Gala Original Blend)

Palo santo • Sandalwood • Toasted pumpkin • Whipped buttercream • Autumnal spices

Every season has its rituals. Lighting the first candle. Opening the windows to crisp October air. Wrapping up in your favorite knit blanket as the house grows quiet. Creamy pumpkin, sacred woods, and softly spiced sweetness create a grounding fragrance made for slow, peaceful evenings.

Baked Cinnamon Peaches (Gift Gala Original Blend)

Baked peaches • Buttered cinnamon • Brown sugar • Vanilla cream

Fresh peaches bubble beneath a buttery cinnamon crumble as brown sugar caramelizes around the edges of the baking dish. Finished with silky vanilla cream, this fragrance feels like dessert cooling on Grandma's countertop after Sunday supper.

Fall Festival (Gift Gala Original Blend)

Cranberry • Orchard apple • Crushed clove • Cinnamon stick • Vanilla bean • Balsam fir

The fairgrounds are alive with music, hayrides, cider, and baskets overflowing with fresh-picked apples. Sweet orchard fruit, festive spices, evergreen boughs, and creamy vanilla recreate the unmistakable excitement of an October afternoon spent making memories.

Butternut Pumpkin & Spiced Apple (Gift Gala Original Blend)

Butternut pumpkin purée • Honeycrisp apple • Warm spices • Maple cream

The season's harvest comes together in one unforgettable recipe. Sweet Honeycrisp apples, velvety butternut pumpkin, maple cream, and fragrant baking spices create a rich farmhouse fragrance that feels like gathering around the table after a day spent in the orchard.

Maple Spice Crumble (Gift Gala Original Blend)

Toasted almond • Maple drizzle • Buttery crumble • Cozy baking spices

A bubbling crumble fresh from the oven fills the kitchen with the irresistible aroma of toasted almonds, buttery streusel, maple syrup, and fragrant spices. Sweet without being overpowering, it's the scent of autumn baking at its very best.

Bound in Autumn (Gift Gala Original Blend)

Juicy lychee • Ripe plum • Warm woods • Sweet spice • Amber musk

An old novel rests open beside a softly glowing lamp while cool October rain taps gently against the windows. Dark fruits, polished woods, warm spice, and amber musk create an elegant fragrance inspired by peaceful evenings spent completely lost in a good book.

Painted Woodlands (Gift Gala Original Blend)

Golden nectar • Warm clove • Crisp apple • Evergreen woods

Every October, the countryside transforms into a masterpiece of amber, crimson, and gold. Winding trails, crisp apples, aromatic evergreens, and gentle spice invite you to wander beneath the changing canopy and savor the beauty of the season.

Honey & Hearth (Gift Gala Original Blend)

Golden honey • Amber • Tobacco leaf • Tonka bean • Earthy spices

The last porch light glows as family gathers inside for the evening. Rich honey, warm amber, aged tobacco leaf, creamy tonka bean, and earthy spice create a deeply comforting fragrance inspired by the heart of every home—the place where stories are shared long after sunset.
