A new season is almost here.
Our Fall Collection arrives September 15.
"Home is not four walls and a roof. It is the laughter that fills the rooms, the quiet prayers said at night, the familiar faces that light up the table. A house is built of timber and stone, but only love can make it a home."
Meet Our Favorites
The scents we keep reaching for
Three of us, three sets of favorites—see what Carol, Marilyn, and April are burning most often at home
Carol
Holidays
O Christmas Tree
O Christmas Tree joins our Evergreen Collection of Snowy Evergreens and Winter’s Night. This brand new fragrance will warm your heart and bring back all the memories of cutting down your very own Christmas tree. It opens with the crisp, earthy scent of a freshly cut Fraser Fir tree, followed by a subtle hint of cypress and cedar. Lighting O Christmas Tree and letting the aroma fill your home will inevitably remind you of walking through a tree farm, searching for the ‘perfect one’ for your Classic Christmas Holiday.
FRUIT
PERFECTLY PEAR
A sweet, ripe, juicy pear with a touch of lemon and warm spices come together in this classic fragrance. It’s the perfect candle scent for every season.
Floral
Moonlit Garden
Garden flowers always smell incredible, but there’s something slightly intoxicating about them when the night air is mixed in with the blooms. Moonlit Garden is a gorgeous blend of night blooming flowers plus a touch of citrus and sultry musk to round it out. We are so happy with this unique floral scent and we know you will, too! It’s unlike anything you’ve smelled before!
Marilyn
Masculine
BOURBON ROOM
The fireplace is roaring, the leather club chairs are worn and plush, the lights are dimmed and there’s a sweet smoky aroma filling the air. Bourbon Room evokes all the warmth you’d imagine it would. Oak-aged bourbon, spicy cardamom and brown sugar along with a little touch of sage, clove and citrus round out this warm, sultry and slightly sweet fragrance. If you love our Candlelit Cabin, you’ll also adore Bourbon Room.
Holidays
Snowy Evergreens
Fresh cut evergreen trees and bayberry with a little vanilla makes this one of our best sellers each Winter. It’s clean, fresh and perfectly warm and will fill your home with a woodland touch.
SPICE
Timeless
Timeless is a candle that evokes a sense of nostalgia and serenity, blending classic and modern aromas into an enduring fragrance. It’s scent opens with warm notes of aged cedarwood and amber, layered with a whisper of vanilla and jasmine for a smooth, lingering depth. A hint of wild berries and oak moss adds a fresh yet sophisticated touch, creating a balanced aroma that transcends eras. This unique fragrance was designed to create an atmosphere of quiet elegance - perfect for moments of reflection, romance, or simply unwinding in a space that feels infinite.
April
Masculine
Heritage Manor
A timeless fragrance inspired by the classic elegance of a cherished old estate. Step into the warmth of an upscale grand heritage home with this beautiful Fall scent. Bright orange zest and eucalyptus mingle with aromatic cinnamon. As the fragrance settles, rich patchouli and creamy sandalwood embrace warm vanilla, creating an inviting atmosphere that feels both refined and wonderfully familiar. Sophisticated. Warm. Timeless. A scent that feels like coming home to a place with a story.
Holidays
Spiced Cranberry
Spiced Cranberry is a dreamy fragrance perfect from Fall through the Holidays and beyond. A beautiful blend of tart cranberries, a touch of vanilla, spicy cinnamon and sweet orange. Grab a cozy throw, your favorite book, light this candle and be caught up in the pure joy of Spiced Cranberry.
Baked Goods
Pumpkin Souffle
Creamy and sweet with just the right amount of spice. Pumpkin Souffle will remind you of toasted pumpkin, warm cinnamon, rich buttercream and a sprinkle of ginger. A wonderful fragrance to fill your home for the Fall holidays.

It’s more than a Home‘s candles are by far my favorite candles ever. They are handmade by Carol and Marilyn, with such care containing all natural products, and their scents are nothing short of amazing! I recently purchased a Creamsicle scented candle and I can’t get enough of it! And their Welcome Home scent, well it’s to die for!! In addition to their amazing scents, they come in the most beautifully curated vessels, which can be reused as decor and serving pieces! I can’t say enough about these amazing candles!!

Carol & Marilyn are my favorite people I’ve met on Instagram. If you haven’t purchased their candles, you are missing out. They are beautiful, unusual and their scents fill the room without lighting them. The packaging and mailing is beyond perfect. Wonderful new friends.

I can’t say enough good things about It’s More Than a Home Candles! As a family-owned business, Carol & Marilyn pour so much love and care into everything they do — and it truly shows.
Every candle I have ordered & burn fills my home with the most comforting scent. The quality is unmatched, the packaging is beautiful, and it burns so cleanly. You can really feel the intention behind every detail.
Even when there was a slight delay with the launch, their communication was kind, honest, and full of gratitude. That kind of heart is rare, and it’s exactly why I’ll keep coming back.
Thank you for creating something so special — it’s more than a candle… it’s truly a part of my home.
