All the Scents of Fall

Stuff We Love
Sept. 30, 2023

With the equinox behind us, it’s time to go all in on autumn. Traverse City Candle Co. has done just that with their 2023 fall candle drop, and we can’t get enough of this seasonal quintet. First up is the Maple Bay (pictured), with notes of oak moss, dried leaves, and warm musk. Then there’s Farmers Market—a perennial favorite—which transports you to the Sara Hardy Downtown Farmers Market with a nose full of apples, cinnamon, and clove. Speaking of being transported, Good Harbor Bonfire blends the lines between summer and fall, reminding you of your favorite Lake Michigan sunset with hints of marshmallows and chocolate. The Petoskey Pumpkin scent is like a pumpkin pie in a jar, and last but not least, the Tunnel of Trees has that woodsy, apple-scented vibe of driving north through Harbor Springs as the leaves are changing. All candles are 100 percent soy, with a burn time of 50+ hours. $28 per candle, or $90 for four. Shop traversecitycandleco.com.
