As a candle enthusiast, I’ve finally found the perfect fall fragrance—and it burns for over 70 hours.

Though I’m not one to rush time, I’d be lying if I said I haven’t been eagerly anticipating fall since August 1. Now that the season has officially arrived and the temperatures are finally dropping, I’m ready to dive into all things autumn—cozy clothes, festive decor, delicious food, and of course, fragrances.

While I love decorating with throw pillows, blankets, and wreaths throughout my home, the perfect candle is essential for shifting my space from summer to fall. I've tried several this season, but none truly captured my heart until I stumbled upon Backhouse Fragrances' limited-edition scent.

A few weeks ago, the California brand sent me their ‘Jack’ candle, and from the moment I lit it, I was amazed by how distinct it was. Unlike other candles I’ve tried with an overpowering, synthetic pumpkin scent, this one struck the perfect balance—strong enough to fill my home with fragrance, yet subtle enough to be enjoyable for hours.

The best part? My 12.5-ounce candle lasts over 70 hours, while the 4-ounce version, priced at just $16, can burn for up to 30 hours. Don’t miss out—grab one to add a luxurious, cozy fall vibe to your home before they sell out.

Backhouse Fragrances’ Jack Candle

The fall candle is carefully hand-poured in Newport Beach, California, using a unique blend of coconut and vegetable wax, along with premium fragrance oils that are phthalate-free and a lead-free wick. With top notes of pumpkin, cinnamon, and vanilla, accented by a graham cracker hint, it creates a cozy, bonfire-like atmosphere. The scent fills my home with a delightful, sweet, spicy, and toasty fragrance that isn’t overwhelming, ensuring a pleasant experience. Every time I have guests over—whether for dinner, watching football, or just hanging out—they always mention how wonderful the scent is the moment they step inside.

On my first use, I followed the brand’s recommendation and burned the candle for two hours to ensure an even melt of the wax. Afterward, I trimmed the wick before relighting it. I’ve been burning it nearly every day, and I’m amazed by how much wax is still left. I typically purchase candles of a similar size from well-known brands, but they only last around 25 to 45 hours before burning out. This one, however, lasts twice as long.

It’s not just my guests and I who adore the Backhouse Fragrances 'Jack' pumpkin candle. Many other customers have praised it for its 'clean burn,' 'beautiful packaging,' and 'lovely fragrance.' One reviewer mentioned they’ve 'tried every pumpkin candle on the market,' but this one is 'the best' and their go-to choice, lasting all the way from September through October. Another reviewer, a designer, shared that they 'use a lot of candles,' and described this brand as 'the best-smelling,' noting that even when it’s not lit, it makes a space smell incredible.

Perfect for fall gatherings and cozy nights, the 'Jack' candle from Backhouse Fragrances is a must-have. You can explore different sizes of the pumpkin scent below, or if you're interested in discovering other fragrances, head over to the site.
