For those who love the smell of a fresh bottle of hot sauce, Bath & Body Works' new Sriracha Candle will help you get your fix in an unexpected way. With a smell that's just as spicy as the beloved condiment, the candle is the ultimate mood-booster for hot sauce lovers.

Bath & Body Works' new Sriracha Candle is an unexpected new product that goes beyond the brand's usual fruity and floral offerings. The product itself is a [three-wick candle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/foodinspired-candle) that's designed to smell just like Thai Sriracha, red chili peppers, crushed coriander, and jalapeño peppers. The result is a warm and spicy scent that is likely to appeal to those enamored with similar aromas like that of [hot cinnamon candies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flamin-hot-bricc-soap).
