Have you created a place to escape from everyday stress? A place where you can relax and watch the game or invite the guys over for a poker night?
You may have plastered the walls with all sorts of manly paraphernalia, like beer signs and your prized autographed baseball jersey. But that doesn’t mean your well-designed man cave has to smell like old gym socks and spilled beer.
In order to fully relax, you’ll want your oasis to smell fresh and clean. And there’s no better way to achieve that than by using scented candles (and the occasional cleaning, of course).
Don’t worry, you don’t have to fill the room with the smell of lavender and vanilla. Keep reading to discover 4 man cave candle ideas that will add to the decor and make the room smell great (but not girly).
1. Riding Mower
For some, mowing the lawn isn’t just a dreaded chore. If you like the smell of freshly cut grass, you may actually enjoy jumping on that riding mower every week.
You can bring that smell inside with Yankee Candle’s Riding Mower scent. Plus, the candle is quite large, so it’ll last you a while. You’ll get to enjoy a fresh man cave with minimal effort!
2. Meat Scents
Are you a self-proclaimed carnivore? If you can’t get enough steak and burgers, this next one is for you.
A.1. Sauce has come out with a mouth-watering collection of candles, including backyard BBQ, Classic Burger, and Original Meat. Of course, they all come in a glass container that looks like the bottom half of a bottle of A.1.
You’ll be dreaming of dinner and looking up new and unique A.1. recipes in no time.
3. Teakwood and Leather
If you’re looking for something more suave or modern, consider shopping Basik Candle Company’s collection of scented candles.
One of the best is Teakwood and Leather. This natural scent is also subtle, so you won’t feel overpowered. Your friends may not even notice it’s coming from a candle!
The container is a simple matte black with a wooden lid, so it’ll blend in with your decor and leave you feeling as manly as ever.
4. Your Favorite Traditional Scent
Not a fan of any of the scents listed above? No problem!
There are tons of traditional scents that would work well in a man cave, such as ocean breeze, forest floor, and twilight. However, the names and designs on these candles may detract from your man cave ambiance.
If that’s the case, all you have to do is make candle labels yourself. With a little help, you can create professional looking labels that will add to the decor surrounding you.
