Roses are timeless, from their visual appeal in interior prints to their distinct, floral scent. They are also making waves (albeit in a different format) in the upcoming film, The Roses, starring Olivia Colman and Benedict Cumberbatch, and to celebrate this release, Voluspa has introduced a limited edition candle to its expansive roster of scents.

The home and personal fragrance brand is releasing its beloved Rose Otto candle with limited edition packaging, and the vessel is a sight to behold.

The scent itself is ideal for floral lovers, with Rosa Damascena flower tops, Bulgarian rose, and pink peony powering the fragrance.

Meanwhile, the single wick provides a 40-hour burn time of the coconut wax blend. Additionally, the candle is free of phthalates, parabens and sulfates.

Candle care is crucial to its preservation and longevity; as such, the Voluspa website instructs users to trim wicks to 1/4” with each burn. They also suggest placing candles on a heat-resistant surface or tray, and ensuring the wax melts to the candle's edge. Finally, using a snuffer prevents soot or smoke from infiltrating your space.

Below, we have rounded up a few additional favorite rose-scented candles, all of which look just as good as they smell. Happy shopping!
