It is the holiday season and one of the most popular (and cheap) gifts from white elephant office parties is...yes, you guessed it...a scented candle!

So, the big question today is "What is the most popular scented candle in Texas?" However, where do you go to find this very specific research? Well, I'm in luck as shaneco.com looked into popular candle store Bath & Body Works to find most popular candle scent in every state!

Let's get back to Texas. Is it a rustic West Texas scent? No.  It is Vampire's Blood.  Huh?  The survey explains...

"Texas has another unique favorite: Vampire Blood. This unique and intriguing scent could be a reflection of Texans’ love for the extraordinary and the dramatic, symbolizing a sense of adventure and a flair for the unconventional."

Ok...not sure what that smell is, but I guess Texans like it.

I leave you the scents that won in multiple states...

  • Japanese Cherry Blossom – 11 states
  • Eucalyptus Tea – 4 states
  • Warm Vanilla Sugar – 4 states
  • A Thousand Wishes – 3 states
  • Champagne Toast – 3 states
  • Fresh Balsam – 3 states
  • Pumpkin Pecan Waffles – 3 states

So now you know - have a great smelling Christmas!
