The fragrances we choose for our homes can be just as important and personal as our perfume choices. Certain aromas can trigger familiar senses in your memory – a scent you love personally, a fragrance your mum uses back home, or a perfume from an meaningful holiday, for instance – all of which can settle your mind, giving a physical sensation of the memory.

What is the best brand of scented candles? What are the strongest smelling candles?
There are so many candles to choose from, spanning across a wide range of preferences, scents and budgets. Take Lush's new range of vegan candles, which use rapeseed wax, coconut oil, coconut wax, and castor wax and are available in three, heavenly scents - Orange Blossom, The Olive Branch and Sleepy.
For a budget burn, Aldi rightly holds the top spot. The layered minimalistic glass jars channel high-end scents at a fraction of the price and are a thrifty way to keep your home smelling luxurious. It's worth noting, though, that the scent struggles to fill the room quite as well as higher end scents.
For the strongest scented candles, Jo Malone are incredible. You'll be able to sniff them all the way from the front door and the scent choices are beautiful and unique. Similarly, The White Company's candles easily fill a room with fragrance. Their winter scent - aptly named Winter - is a best-seller for a reason, while Wild Mint is lighter and fresher, and for holiday vibes, Seychelles cannot be beaten.
