Bah Humbug

  • In stock, ready to ship
  • Backordered, shipping soon

  • Scents: Pine, Fig, Orange, Pepper
  • Scent Throw: Moderate

One of the most famous lines from classic literature is “bah, humbug!” Ebenezer Scrooge exclaims this in A Christmas Carol to scoff at anything and everything, especially holiday cheer.

Whether you feel the same or simply want to better connect with this classic story, you’ll love the Bah Humbug candle. The spicy notes of pepper are perfect for those who don’t jump for joy when they hear jingle bells, but this candle is still well-balanced with sweet orange and calming woody scents.

If you find yourself scoffing at carolers and merry feasts, let this wintry and woodsy scent be your companion through the journey of past, present and future. While Scrooge’s journey took an entire night to complete, please remember that it’s unsafe to burn a candle for more than 2–3 hours, even if it’s our 8 oz version.

Nice holiday scent but a little weak

This candle is very nice smelling and festive, but it is fairly weak and doesn’t have that rich Christmas candle complex atmosphere that I look for in frostbeards Christmas candles.

GRINCHY GOODNESS

By far my favorite holiday candle! We lit it today (first #actual cold day of winter in FL) and put up the Christmas tree, made and drank eggnog and watched The Santa Clauses. It definitely put us in the holiday spirit!

Holiday Favorite

I bought this around the holidays last year and loved it, so I decided to get another one for this year too. It smells even better than I remembered (and I remember liking it a lot!). This candle is going to be a December tradition for me from now on.

Peppery and calming

This is the perfect writing candle. The scent has a tangy-but-neutral quality, with the main vibe being pepper. It makes me feel anything but grumpy and miserly.

Don't judge a candle by the first whiff

I must admit, it wasn't love at first whiff. You know, that thing you do when you first get a new candle? Yes, I immediately stuck my nose in the jar and took a big whiff. I smelt pine, strong overpowering pine. I set the candle aside and haven't touched it until today. It's been burning for a couple hours now and the pine scent is fortunately neither overpowering nor overly strong. It is actually very mild and fresh. It did take a little bit for the smell to get going and I think it is better suited for a smaller room. But the scent is still pretty noticeable, even over the smell of the freshly baked rum cake sitting on the kitchen counter as I write this so I can't complain.

Great Scent

Great natural Christmas scent, which is just what I wanted! The pine pairs nicley with the fig, citrus, and pepper, which makes it less overwhelming than other pine candles I've had.

Unusual and fascinating

This candle gives off a very unusual throw--and not in a bad way! The orange and fig are the strongest scents. The candle's overall smell tends to get a little bit overwhelming at first whiff, but the senses adjust to it and you're left enthralled at the different scents you get. I do hope it's hot throw would be more mellow. I guess, I'll find out soon ;)

#1 scent

This was my first candle from frostbeard. I chose it because I'm a fan of pine. I was not disappointed! This company knows how to make candles! It is a pleasant scent, nice throw. I have ordered many candles and melts since. I am currently subscribed to the monthly delivery. I have not been disappointed in any purchase. Two thumbs up!!

Bah Humbug is delightful; even Scrooge would like this scent. Very Christmas forward, with the fruity notes and the little touch of pepper.

The best ever!

This is my absolute favourite! It smells fresh and warm and cozy and wintery but not too wintery. Could absolutely use this all year round.The pine and the orange are the most noticeable but without them being too much or too strong. They blend perfectly! I would roll around in this scent if I could. Everything should smell like this.

I love this fragrance too!! This one is a little light than the others I've tried, but It's so unique that I really can't describe it.

Wonderful wintery scent

While my favorite scent of all time is Frostbeard's Winter Keep, I bought Bah Humbug to change things up a bit, and I'm pleased.
