Current trends in artisanal candles


Artisanal candles are no longer limited to simple lighting or ambient fragrance: they have become real objects of decoration and personal expression. If you are curious to know what is trending in the world of artisanal candles, I will share with you my current discoveries and inspirations, directly from my experience with Coton Corail.


1. Rechargeable candles: a must for eco-responsibility

Today, consumers are looking for products with a low environmental impact. Refillable candles, like those we offer at Coton Corail, are the perfect answer to this request.

  • Why are they attractive?
    They allow you to reuse a pretty pot instead of throwing it away. With convenient refills, you can extend the pleasure while reducing your waste.

Trendy tip: Choose elegant pots that fit perfectly into your decor, even once the candle is finished.


2. Crackling wooden wicks

Candles with wooden wicks are gaining popularity for their delicate crackle, which evokes the warm ambiance of a fireplace.

  • Why is it trendy?
    They add an additional sensory experience, ideal for cocooning moments or winter evenings.

At Coton Corail, our candles like Charlevoix - Pine Needle + Juniper combine this trend with enveloping scents for maximum effect.


3. Natural and complex fragrances

No more artificial scents that are too intense. Consumers are looking for more subtle and refined fragrances, often inspired by nature.

  • What's going well:
    • Woody notes (like cedar or fir).
    • Sparkling citrus fruits (perfect for a touch of energy).
    • Unique blends like Bali - Sandalwood + Sage, one of our new products.

4. Sculptural candles: art in your home

Candles are no longer hidden, they are exposed. Sculptural shapes, such as twists, spheres or abstract figures, transform the candle into a real decorative object.

  • DIY trend: Many opt for minimalist candles in neutral tones, perfect for integrating into modern interiors.

5. The return to natural and handmade materials

With the rise of artisanal and local values, handmade candles in ceramic or blown glass pots are enjoying real success.

  • Why is it trendy?
    Each piece is unique and tells a story. At Coton Corail, our handmade pots reflect this artisanal spirit, with a clean and elegant design.

6. Candles with multiple uses

Some candles are no longer limited to being decorative. Massage candles, for example, are attractive for their dual use: they perfume your interior and transform into nourishing oil for the skin.

  • Trendy Tip: If you're looking for an original idea for your next candle, consider a massage candle with natural ingredients like soy wax or hemp oil .


Conclusion
Trends in artisanal candles reflect a desire to consume differently: products that are more ethical, more beautiful, and more adapted to individual needs. Whether you are a fan of design, ecology or unique fragrances, there is bound to be an artisanal candle that suits you.
