As summer’s heat gives way to cool harbor breezes, Charleston transforms into a place of quiet magic. Cobblestone streets glow under golden light, ghost stories linger in the air, and the charm of the Lowcountry takes on a cozy, autumnal feel. Inspired by this season of warmth and mystery, our Fall Collection captures the scents of Charleston in candles that make home feel as enchanting as a walk through the Holy City.

Only a few things feel more like fall than a cider in hand while wandering through Charleston’s City Market. City Market Cider blends spiced apple, cinnamon, and a hint of sweetness, like the scent of the season carried on a crisp evening breeze.

For nights that call for something stronger, East Bay Bourbon Cider reimagines the classic apple-cinnamon fragrance with a Charleston twist. Inspired by the lively restaurants and cocktail scene along East Bay Street, this candle layers bourbon warmth with cider and spice. It’s a fragrance that feels like ending the night on a high note, whether out on the town or curled up at home.

Charleston’s stories aren’t just sweet, they’re also mysterious. Inspired by Edgar Allan Poe’s The Gold-Bug, written during his time on Sullivan’s Island, The Gold Bug candle offers an earthy, resinous fragrance with golden warmth. It’s dark, literary, and haunting in all the right ways.

Equally atmospheric, Holy City Haunts channels Charleston’s centuries-old ghost tales. Think smoky incense and a touch of mystery, like walking past the Old City Jail at night. Whether you’re a believer in spirits or just love the thrill of a good ghost story, this candle sets the perfect moody tone for fall.

Of course, no Lowcountry autumn is complete without a taste of pumpkin. Palmetto Pumpkin brings bakery-fresh coziness to your home with notes of butter, sugar, and warm spice. From pie-baking days to pumpkin patch visits, this candle captures the sweetest traditions of the season.

Fall in Charleston is more than a season; it’s a feeling, one that lingers in scent and memory. With the Charleston Candle Co. Fall Collection, you can bring that magic home, wherever you are.
