One of the most powerful parts of a Disney vacation is the smell.
Main Street Bakery in Magic Kingdom
From sweet treats in the parks to the immersive scents pumped into rides and resorts, those magical aromas have a way of sticking with you long after you’ve left. If you’ve ever wished you could bottle up that feeling and bring it home, you’re in luck. We’ve rounded up four of our favorite candles that smell just like iconic Disney experiences, so you can relive the magic anytime, right from your living room.

If you’ve ever walked through Adventureland with a refreshing Dole Whip in hand, this candle will transport you right back to that tropical Disney moment. The Pineapple Float Candle captures the creamy, juicy scent of pineapple Dole Whip so perfectly, you’ll swear you’re steps away from the Tiki Room. It’s the ultimate pick-me-up for any Disney fan who wants to bring a little bit of sunshine and magic into their home.
If you love Fort Wilderness, this is for you!
Sunlit Trails Candle
Craving that peaceful, woodsy vibe of Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort? The Sunlit Trails 3-Wick Candle from Bath & Body Works captures that rustic charm perfectly. With earthy notes of cedarwood, warm amber, and soft musk, it smells just like a stroll through the pine-lined trails or a cozy evening by the campfire after a day at the parks. It’s a must-have for anyone who loves the outdoorsy magic of Fort Wilderness.
We love this candle that smells like Flight of Passage
Frozen Lake
If you’ve ever ridden Flight of Passage in Pandora at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, you know that smell is clean, airy, and almost otherworldly. The Frozen Lake 3-Wick Candle from Bath & Body Works comes incredibly close, with a cool blend of lavender, eucalyptus, and juniper. It’s crisp, refreshing, and gives off that same exhilarating vibe you get soaring on a banshee through the bioluminescent beauty of Pandora.
And finally, for those who love Wilderness Lodge!
Balsam & Cedar
Few scents are as nostalgic as the woodsy, lodge-like aroma of Disney’s Wilderness Lodge—and the Yankee Candle Balsam & Cedar nails it. With the rich fragrance of evergreen, cedarwood, and a hint of crisp winter air, it instantly evokes the cozy, grand lobby of the resort, complete with a roaring fire and towering Christmas tree (even if it’s July). Light this and you’ll feel like you’re curled up in a rocking chair under those iconic totem poles.
