LAFCO Holiday Gift Guide 2025

The holiday season is about more than gatherings and glittering lights. It is about creating moments that feel thoughtful, personal, and warm. A well-chosen fragrance does all of that at once. It fills a room with atmosphere, turns a simple evening into something memorable, and lingers long after the celebration ends.

This year’s Holiday Collection was designed with gifting in mind. From festive evergreens and sparkling fruits to rich woods and soft florals, each fragrance is housed in hand-blown glass that feels as special as the scent itself. With options across every format and price, there is something for every recipient and every setting.

To make gifting easy, we have organized this guide so you can shop by recipient, ambience, and more.

Gifts by Recipient

The best gifts are the ones that feel personal. Choosing by recipient makes it simple to match each fragrance to the way someone lives, celebrates, or enjoys their space. Whether you’re shopping for a host, a design lover, or someone who treasures seasonal tradition, these selections were made to fit their world.

For the Host

Bring something thoughtful to the next gathering with Woodland Spruce. Its blend of fir balsam, juniper, and birch leaf recalls a freshly cut tree, making it a natural choice for the host who loves to entertain. The Classic Candle + Diffuser Gift Set is ready to present and adds fragrance that lasts well beyond the evening.

For the Gourmand

Give the gift of indulgence with White Maple Bourbon. Notes of barrel-aged bourbon, white maple wood, and vanilla bean create a rich, cozy atmosphere that pairs perfectly with evenings spent by the fire. Choose the Signature Candle for hours of warmth or the 3-Wick Candle to fill larger rooms.

For the Design Enthusiast

Scent and design meet in Winter Violet, a fragrance that pairs violet and smoked cedar with a vessel that feels like modern art. Its hand-blown glass swirls of grey and violet make it as much a statement piece as it is a candle. Perfect for anyone who notices details and loves objects that elevate a space.

For the Social Butterfly

Lively gatherings call for a fragrance with energy. Absinthe Plum blends ripened black plum, artemisia, and ginger with sandalwood brandy for a scent that feels festive and refined. The Classic Candle sets the tone for a cocktail party, while the Votive makes an elegant hostess gift.

For the Tech Lover

For someone who loves gadgets that also make life more beautiful, the Pura Smart Diffuser is a perfect fit. It connects through an app, allowing fragrance to be scheduled, adjusted, and customized with ease. Pair the diffuser with holiday refills in Woodland Spruce, White Maple Bourbon, Pumpkin Seed & Sandalwood, or Spiced Pomander for a gift that feels both modern and festive .

For Those Who Celebrate Hanukkah

Mark the holiday with Eight Nights’ Light, a fragrance of white rum, fir needles, and iced musk that feels bright and uplifting. The Signature Candle is crafted to bring a sense of joy and light to seasonal gatherings, making it a thoughtful gift for Hanukkah traditions and celebrations.

Gifts by Ambience

Every home has its own rhythm during the holidays. Some spaces call for the freshness of evergreens, others for the richness of spice or the glow of a fireside. Choosing a fragrance by ambience is an easy way to set the mood and create a lasting impression.

Festive Forest

Woodland Spruce captures the feeling of a freshly cut tree. Juniper berries, fir balsam, birch leaf, and palo santo create a crisp, green fragrance that feels both nostalgic and bright. Choose the Classic Candle for intimate spaces or the 3-Wick Candle for larger rooms where you want the scent to linger.

Fireside Decadence

White Maple Bourbon is rich and indulgent, with notes of barrel-aged bourbon, white maple wood, and vanilla bean. It evokes evenings spent by the fire, whether with company or in quiet reflection. The Signature Candle brings hours of warmth, while the 3-Wick Candle quickly fills open spaces.

Glam Winter

Absinthe Plum is festive and polished, blending ripened black plum, artemisia, ginger, and sandalwood brandy. It’s a fragrance that feels right at home during cocktail hours and lively gatherings. Light a Classic Candle for the main room or scatter Votives across tables for added sparkle.

Cozy Spice

Spiced Pomander combines bitter orange, clove, nutmeg, and cinnamon in a fragrance that feels timeless. Bright citrus keeps the blend lively, while spice adds warmth that is unmistakably seasonal. The Signature Candle is ideal for family gatherings, and the Votive makes smaller spaces instantly inviting.

Rustic Comfort

Pumpkin Seed & Sandalwood reimagines a fall classic with notes of fennel, clove, and patchouli layered over toasted pumpkin seed. Earthy and grounding, it’s a fragrance that feels both cozy and sophisticated. Place a Classic Candle in a reading nook or choose a Signature Candle to bring calm to a bedroom.

Ready-to-Gift Sets

When time is short, a gift set takes the guesswork out of holiday shopping. Each one is thoughtfully packaged and ready to present, combining best-selling fragrances with formats designed to complement one another.
