Despite the freezing temperatures, there's something about winter that's just so cozy.

Perhaps it's the sounds of a crackling fireplace, plush clothes that feel like a hug, and hot teas and soups that warm you up from the inside. And as for scent? Amazon shoppers believe they've found a candle that perfectly emulates that "cozy winter smell."

Not only is Yankee Candle's Balsam & Cedar Large Jar Candle one of Amazon's best-selling candles, but it's also on sale right now for just $17. Inspired by winter's favorite trees, the candle is made of a blend of high-quality fragrance oils featuring fruits like crisp citrus and red berry, rustic pine balsam, cedar, and sandalwood, plus warm vanilla, amber, and musk.

The result? A soul-hugging fragrance that smells like taking a walk through a beautiful green forest. (And it even looks just as green!)
