These unusually scented candles are inspired by novel fantasy series such as Harry Potter, The Lord of the Rings and A Song of Ice and Fire. Available on Etsy from Frostbeard, these nerdy candles will be sure to have book worms rejoicing. Whether you buy them for yourself or someone else, they make a magical gift any time of the year.
With scents like Winterfell and the Shire, the fragrant candles for the most part inspired by places in the fantasy series. However, some are more vague and not typically associated with smells, like each of the four Hogwarts houses (although I assume Hufflepuff is food-based) or the towel from Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy (that can't smell too nice knowing its many uses).
