There’s something magical about summer evenings—the warm breeze, the soft glow of golden hour, and the feeling of unwinding after a long day. With just a few touches, you can recreate that summer magic in your own home. From refreshing scents to cozy lighting, let’s explore how you can craft the perfect summer sanctuary with Petrichor Candles, makers of the best-scented candles in Australia.
1. Set the Mood with Fragrance
Fragrance has the power to transport you to your favorite summer destination. Whether it’s the salty breeze of the coast, the warmth of the Australian bush, or the zest of tropical fruit, our handmade candles capture the essence of summer.
Here are some scents to try:
- Coconut Lime: Imagine sipping a piña colada on a sunny beach. This tropical blend is perfect for adding a holiday vibe to your home.
- Bergamot & Banksia: A fresh, citrusy aroma that energizes your mornings and brightens your space.
- Australian Bush: Evoke the earthy and invigorating scents of a summer bushwalk.
Place these luxurious candles in your living room, bedroom, or outdoor space to let their fragrances set the tone for a relaxing summer.
2. Lighting to Enhance Summer Evenings
Candlelight isn’t just for cozy winters; it’s also perfect for summer. Soft, flickering light creates a tranquil atmosphere that pairs beautifully with the season's warm evenings.
- For indoor spaces, cluster a few Travel Candle Tins together on a shelf or coffee table. These small yet powerful candles are ideal for sampling scents while adding a subtle glow.
- Outdoors, combine candles with fairy lights or lanterns for a magical alfresco setting, perfect for a summer barbecue or a quiet evening under the stars.
3. Decor Tips for a Summery Aesthetic
The way you style your space can amplify those summer vibes. Here are some ideas:
- Pair amber jars from our Original Range with neutral tones like white linens and light woods for a clean, airy look.
- Add natural elements like fresh flowers, seashells, or woven baskets to create a beachy atmosphere.
- Place candles in unexpected spots, like your bathroom or hallway, to spread the summery feel throughout your home.
4. Incorporate Summer Rituals
Summer is the perfect time to slow down and embrace calming rituals. Light a candle and pair it with activities that help you relax:
- Enjoy a quiet moment with a good book and the refreshing scent of Amalfi Coast.
- Wind down after a hot day with a bath, lighting the soothing Lavender & Ylang Ylang candle to help you relax.
- Meditate in the gentle glow of your favorite candle, using aromatherapy to reset and refresh.
