Cinnamon is used in many treats, from drinks like hot apple cider to baked goods like snickerdoodles and crumb cake. And derived from an evergreen tree’s bark, it’s no wonder we use it in so many autumnal and winter treats and foods. Its distinct clove-like scent comes from constituent eugenol and cinnamaldehyde, which gives off a spicy yet sweet aroma that has been used since ancient times.
Cinnamon may seem like a simple common spice, but it’s so much more. Used in so many foods and drinks, it can conjure up all kinds of memories. From Halloween treats to Christmas mulled wine, this spice rack staple is sentimental, making it one of our favorite scents for candles and oil diffusers.
Here are the best cinnamon candles Homesick has to offer, from seasonal favorites to nostalgic scents that remind you of your grandma’s cooking. Take a look; there’s something for everybody!
The Pumpkin Candle
If you’re hunting for the best fall scented candles and, in particular, one with cinnamon notes, look no further! The Pumpkin Picking candle will make you feel like you’re standing in the middle of a pumpkin patch with a mug of hot apple cider. As you search for the perfect pumpkin for your Jack-o’-Lantern, the vibrant leaves of the autumnal foliage crunch beneath your boots. Ignite this candle and climb on board a hayride on a cool fall day, ending with a slice of spiced pumpkin pie with nutmeg, ginger, vanilla, and sugar notes.
Are you looking for a flameless reed diffuser instead? Check out our Pumpkin Picking Reed Diffuser, offering the same cinnamon-infused scent in a handy bottle filled with non-toxic, natural essential oils and reeds.

The Nutcracker Candle
The Nutcracker candle features a strong cinnamon scent with clove and pecan — like a bag of spice-coated pecans.

So break out the Nutcracker candle — or the Nutcracker Reed Diffuser! — during the holidays or any winter festivity or occasion.
The Apple Candle
Miss picking apples in upstate New York? When you light Homesick’s Apple Orchard Candle, you are magically transported to a sprawling apple orchard with a cup of soul-soothing, hot apple cider infused with cinnamon sticks, clove, sugar cane and bright red apple juice. So what are you waiting for? Grab your basket and fill it with a peck of apples, heading home to make a scrumptious apple pie or brown sugar-dusted cobbler to start off the fall season right.
