Kris Jenner uses this candle to make her room 'instantly cozy' – it smells expensive, but it's available for under $50

Scented candle season is far from over; in fact, January is prime time (in our minds) to introduce new fragrances to the home.

With that, we are always on the lookout for new and exciting home fragrances, so when we saw that Kris Jenner revealed her favorite scented candle in a recent Poosh dispatch, we had to investigate. Her choice is one of the best candles on the market, but it's surprisingly accessible.

In the article, Jenner states that her favorite candle is the Humidor scent by DEHV (available at West Elm). The candle in question lists tobacco, amber resin, mahogany, vanilla bean, and dark rum (AKA the perfect winter blend) as its notes.

'I am really big on room fragrances, and my house is filled with candles,' she says in the piece. 'I love the mahogany and vanilla notes in this candle, and they make any room instantly cozy.'

The sleek, minimalist design of the candle itself is a major selling point, but it turns out it is sustainable, too. The concrete vessel can be used as a pot for starter plants when it's run out of its wax, making it a two-in-one buy. The delicacy of leaves and flowers would look beautiful, contrasting the hard, cool surface of the pot, turning it into a longstanding home accessory.

Additionally, the candles are made of 100% soy wax, with a single wick and a burn time of up to 50 hours.

If the smoky scent that Kris prefers is not your thing, there are tons of other scents to choose from, including florals and gourmands, all housed within the same concrete encasing. We are partial to Blush (also available at West Elm), which features rhubarb, white tea, geranium, peony, and blackcurrant, and Riviera, which smells like sea salt, lavender, lemon, driftwood, and rosebud.

'The only thing better than a celebrity-approved candle is one that continues to feel functional after it burns away,' comments Megan Slack, the head of celebrity news. 'With this in mind, Jenner's go-to is hard to beat. I recommend using the sleek shell for a small container plant – perfect for any minimalist living room. I am going to order one for my own home this January, and it will still live on my shelves (with an indoor plant) long into the summer and beyond.'
