The Thursday Buy: Upgrade Your Space with this Tasteful Ranger Station Candle This Season

In the same way that you put careful thought into your ensemble, the way you dress from the ground up with the best boots for men or the right Oxford shirt or pair of jeans, you can (and should!) put the same care and thought into your living space. That can be something as simple as opting in when it comes to a seasonal scent upgrade with one of the best candles for men, a move that makes your space all the more richly crafted, fragrant and even stylish.

And in my experience, there are few fragrance companies doing it better than Ranger Station, the Nashville-based fragrance house with an emphasis on scents that are at once rugged and refined, complete with collaborations with the likes of rising star Noah Kahan and other guitar-driven luminaries.

It’s an altogether wonderful approach that includes everything from candles to a line of excellent colognes, and selections like the Ranger Station Balsam Fir Candle can certainly bring a heck of a lot to your living room or den this season. A word to the wise: Don’t sleep on the company’s excellent lineup of colognes, with notes of leather, pine an even a whiskey-forward Old Fashioned fragrance on the menu.

What’s more, the Nashville-based company lives up to its rugged roots aplenty, with Ranger Station also offering a mighty useful fragrance quiz to expertly find and curate your signature scent.

The Ranger Station Balsam Fir Candle touches on seasonal classics in its scent notes, including balsam, pine sap and juniper, making for a truly elevated fragrance experience designed to make any room smell like a Christmas tree (or at least, it’ll have things smelling like the heart of the season itself, and that’s never a bad thing, is it?).

It doesn’t hurt that candle selections (and more!) from Ranger Station feature more than 30 hours of burn time, plus a hand-poured production process — and each Ranger Station candle comes complete with a stylish storage box and a crisp, often-playful logo on the side. To light up a candle from Ranger Station is a highly pleasing experience, one you should enjoy early and often this holiday season.

See Now, Buy Now: This Ranger Station Leather & Pine Cologne Is a Perfect Spring Fragrance Upgrade

Best spring cologne for men.

We talk often on this Brooklyn style blog about doing things with intention, like taking good care to find the right spring style essentials (and the right essentials in any season), be it your choice of rugged leather boots, expertly crafted denim or a proper selection of seasonal outerwear.

But what about your grooming rotation? While we love brands like Taylor Stitch and Buck Mason on the blog, the proper grooming and fragrance certainly shouldn’t be overlooked.

It’s a bit more tricky to nail down, but no less important when it comes to, again intentional style and even personal expression. And yes, my friends, that’s where a company like Ranger Station comes into play.

Perhaps you’ve stumbled upon Ranger Station in its Nashville home — a place where the great outdoors meets a sense of adventure and rough-and-tumble good times. Ranger Station embodies that ethos with a sense of old-world cool and a modern edge — its fragrances and candles are some of my personal favorites, with scents that are rich, rugged, masculine and yet refined and versatile, all at once. The company offers up collections that run the gamut from light and airy to intoxicatingly rich, and its products come in everything from spray cologne to candles.

Suffice to say, Ranger Station has serious chops, including collaborations with musicians like Waylon Jennings and Noah Kahan: High-voltage fragrance with a tasteful flair to it.

To hear the company tell it, Ranger Station delivers “premium, made in USA fragrances and candles inspired by the great outdoors that will create a fresh, clean, and sustainable experience for your environment.” I couldn’t have said it better myself, but it can be a lofty prospect to add a cologne to your rotation (or to select one as a starting point). The brand is bold and fun, however, making it worth your time to take a closer look, I’d say.

Choosing a scent to add to your rotation is a personal process, one that should consider how and where you’ll be wearing your new favorite cologne, and even the outfits you’ll be using that Ranger Station fragrance to complement. And for my money’s worth, there’s nothing quite like the crisp yet rich Ranger Station Leather & Pine Fragrance.

In fact, there’s an entire collection dedicated to the rich, versatile Ranger Station Leather & Pine Fragrance, from candles to room spray to the cologne that’s going to add a spritz of outdoorsy scent to your next #OOTD.

Amber, leather and sandalwood come together handsomely in this fragrance, one of my personal favorites — while it’s a worthwhile pairing alongside more casually rugged outfits, like a henley, trucker jacket and black jeans, I find the Ranger Station Leather & Pine Fragrance can be used to add some appeal to business casual situations (think of pairing cologne with a look like you’d think of pairing shoes with an ensemble, in a way). However you chose to make your foray into the world of spring fragrance, you might have just found the perfect scent — and the perfect company — to take the leap.
