L'Officiel Singapore picks out the best in decorative home scenting: beautiful candles you'll be aching to light on fire.

Scent is perhaps one of the best mood setters available to us. As the year draws to a close (and the weather correspondingly cooler, allowing for festive scents) we&rsquo;re looking to take stock of the season&rsquo;s best scented candles to flavour the air with. These are candles you&rsquo;ll&nbsp;want&nbsp;to burn.

Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille

A great statement tabletop piece, if ever there were one. The very popular Tobacco Vanille scent from Tom Ford&rsquo;s Private Blend line is interpreted in his new line of home candles. The heady and intoxicating&nbsp;<a href="http://www.tomford.com/tobacco-vanille-candle-and-cover-set/T4GC-01-0001.html?cgid=3-555-626&amp;dwvar_T4GC-01-0001_color=OC#start=3">candle</a>&nbsp;($376) comes with a hefty metal cover the brand is calling an objet d&rsquo;art.

The Tom Ford Private Blend&nbsp;candle collection is available at Tom Ford Beauty counters (Tangs at Tang Plaza and Robinsons Raffles City) and the Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands.

Diptyque Sapin

Diptyque&rsquo;s festive specials are illustrated this year by longtime collaborator Pierre Marie. This year&rsquo;s &lsquo;Un Nuit Chez Diptyque&rsquo; (a night with Diptyque) includes&nbsp;<a href="https://www.diptyqueparis.com/le-roi-sapin-candle-190g-the-festive-fir-of-tree.html">Sapin</a>&nbsp;($105), an intoxicatingly lush pine, cedar and fir forest of green.

Byredo Bibliotheque

The bookish name of&nbsp;<a href="https://byredo.com/holiday-trio-bibliotheque-candle-240g">Bibliotheque</a>&nbsp;($111) hides a surprisingly fresh and floral scent. Peaches, plums, peonies, violets and leather form a charming bouquet ode to the smell of books

Memo Sexy St. Tropez

Need a little help dreaming up a beach getaway? Enter the tuberose and champagne stylings of the perfectly named Sexy St Tropez ($91) by Memo. If you&rsquo;re the kind who celebrates the festivities early and can&rsquo;t let it go past January, this candle will do the trick of conjuring an escapist locale.

Byredo Altar

Ben Gorham, founder of the Stockholm-based fragrance brand, has looked to his Catholic upbringing to inspire a range of &lsquo;Saints Collection&rsquo; candles.&nbsp;<a href="https://byredo.com/saints-altar-candle-400-g">Altar</a>&nbsp;($162) is the warmest of the lot, with clove buds, ylang ylang and vetiver.

Though bougie parfum&eacute;e are great, music is an equally good mood maker. If you&rsquo;ll excuse the pun &ndash; have a boogie while you look at bougies!

Cire Trudon, Diptyque, Byredo and Memo are available at&nbsp;<a href="http://www.escentials.com.sg/">escentials</a>&nbsp;Paragon.&nbsp;
