How to Choose the Perfect Candle Gift for Any Personality

Candles make timeless gifts; thoughtful, comforting, and personal. Whether it’s for a birthday, Christmas, or a simple gesture of care, a candle says “I thought of you” in the most natural way. But with so many scents to choose from, finding the right one for someone’s personality can make all the difference.

To make your search easier, we’ve matched some of our signature Simpl Candle scents to four distinct personalities - from the minimalist to the creative spirit. Each candle is hand-poured, vegan, and crafted with natural essential oils for an authentic, long-lasting fragrance.

For the Wellness Lover: Peppermint or Tea Tree

For those who live and breathe wellness, quite literally, a refreshing and revitalising scent is key. Peppermint clears the mind and promotes focus, while Tea Tree adds a purifying touch that’s perfect for yoga sessions or peaceful evenings in.

Both scents are known for their cleansing properties and natural clarity. They make wonderful gifts for those who love meditation, self-care rituals, or simply taking a mindful pause during their day.
