It doesn’t matter if you are a married man and father of four or a single as a Pringle in a bachelor-pad loft—candles are just goddamn delightful. They bring a sense of zen to a place when lit while also making it smell divine. Candles are such a great way to set the mood and tone of the place, but sometimes in an effort to be whimsical, the names of candles are often laughable—so why not get some actually hysterical sounding candles that also happen to smell amazing. From a blueberry scented one called “Blue Balls” to a an intriguing sounding “Sex Panther” candle, these scents are sure to delight the nose while getting a giggle out of company. Here are a few of our favorites.

Morning Wood

Isn’t morning wood the first thing everyone wants to wake of up to? I know I certainly do if it smells like vanilla and cedarwood. Jokes aside there really isn’t a bad way to enjoy morning wood, but in form of a warm, welcoming scent is the perfect way to wake up.

Blue Balls

The only kind of blue balls you’ll actually wanted. This 6 ounce candle doesn’t smell as nearly bad as it sounds. In fact, light this baby for the deliciously sweet and homey scent of blueberries and up to 40 hours of burn time.

Chandler Bing Friends TV Show Gift Candle

Admittedly, most straight guys don’t want their apartments to smell like another man, but we figured you’d make an exception for Chandler Bing. Funny, sweet, and slightly neurotic, this Friends character is beloved by all. The candle is just one of several character candles, all soy candles hand poured with approximately 50 hours of burn time.

The Candle Daddy Deez Nutz Scented Candle

There is something just hilarious about burning something named after one of the smelliest body parts known to man. However this candle is actually really delicious smelling. It’s mix with three scents, a perfect blend of Banana Nut Bread, Toasted Coconut, and Hazelnut. It’s a handmade item and has an 80 hour burn time.
