One enthusiastic shopper posted her find of the candles on social media, and wrote: "I caved.
"I had to buy the fallen leaves one...it smelt incredible!"
She added: "Aldi smashing the autumn candles wow!"
Aldi's autumn season is here
From the Hotel Collection of candles at Aldi, the "Fallen Leaves" is on sale for either £19.99 as a Hurricane candle or a £3.99 Autumn Candle for those on a budget.
This "incredible" candle is said to have scents of autumn apples, amber and musk.
Included in this is also the "Pumkin Spice" scent, with warm cinnamon, caramel and clove.
The higher end Hurricane candles from the range come in a 2.1 kg glass jar for a more sophisticated look, and can burn for approximately 140 hours.
But those looking for a cheaper option can get either of these scents as simple Autumn Candles for £3.99, which come in a 300g pot.
They contain a twin wick candle that burns for approximate 49 hours.
At this size, there is also the choice of a "Vanilla Pumpkin" candle, which is scented with cinnamon, maple and nutmeg.
All upcoming 'Aldi Finds' in the middle aisle next week – including portable chargers, power toothbrushes & dryer balls
Both the Hurricane and Autumn candle version are said to "create a beautiful ambience", and are at Aldi stores whilst stocks last.
Brits are gearing up for the cosy season
The post on Facebook raving about the new candle range from Aldi received a number of reactions, comments and likes.
One user responded: "Oh no... Now I am going to have to go and have a smell.
"I'm a sucker for an autumn candle."
Another added: "Same i bought the autumn leaves.
"Saving them until September."
A third wrote: "Aldi autumn collection is lovely and pumpkin is my favourite scent I began melting my own last night."
Do the Aldi's candles really smell good?
Fabulous Associate Editor, Rebecca Miller, popped into store to pick up a few!
The Hurricane Candle might set you back £20 but it's huge and makes a brilliant centrepiece on a table, or perfect for filling large spaces with incredible fragrance. I particularly lovely Fallen Leaves, but Pumpkin Spice was irresistible too. What's more, they look gorgeous too.
The Autumn Jar Candle could be mistaken for a Yankee Candle, but not when you look at the price - only £2.99 for a 510g jar! It comes in three fragrances: Pecan Waffle, Acorn Oak and Apple Orchard. Personally, Pecan Waffle was a little too sweet for my likening, whilst Acorn Oak was musky and heavy.
The Textured Pumpkin Candles, £4.99, caught my eye down the Middle Aisle for their cute decorative pot. Coming in the same fragrances as the Autumn Jar Candle, the pots can be used after the candle has run out - making it a cute decor piece for autumn.
More autumn favourites
This latest collection of Autumn candles comes after the bargain retailer also released some cosy Halloween buys for the season.
Included in this is a £4.99 Pumpkin Candle and some Wooden Lid Autumn Reed Diffuser priced at £3.99.
They became available as part of Aldi's Specialbuys from August 17.

Roscommon company signs €1.2m deal with ALDI for biochar
ALDI has announced a new €1.2 million partnership with Arigna Fuels, a family-run business from Arigna, Co. Roscommon for the supply of biochar. The two-year deal will see Arigna Fuels' Harvest Flame, a low-emission, renewable heating product made from organic plant-based materials, available in all 164 ALDI stores nationwide starting this August. Over the past year, the product has been available as a 'Specialbuy' at ALDI, and through this new contract ALDI and Arigna Fuels will deepen the partnership. Based in Arigna, Co. Roscommon, Arigna Fuels currently employs 45 staff, and produces sustainable, quality fuels. The Harvest Flame product is made from 100% renewable raw materials in accordance with the Air Pollution Act 1987 (Solid Fuels) Regulations 2022 and manufactured in Ireland. The company has recently made a significant investment in building Europe's largest biochar production facility in Roscommon to support the creation of this new product. Harvest Flame is designed for use in stoves, open fires, and outdoor fire pits. It is said to offer a higher heat output than traditional solid fuels such as season timber, wood chips, or pellets. Barry Kirwan, buying director at ALDI Ireland and Brendan Layden, managing director, Arigna Fuels The company has said that thanks to its low moisture and ash content, it also significantly reduces emissions and particulates – making it a cleaner, more efficient alternative for Irish households. The launch of Harvest Flame at ALDI's stores across Ireland is part of the retailer's commitment to offer practical and accessible solutions to climate-conscious customers across Ireland. Harvest Flame is manufactured from olive stones which are a by-product in the production of olive oil. The olive fruit is harvested annually, and trees are not required to be felled. Buying director, ALDI Ireland, Barry Kirwan said: 'We're excited to partner with Arigna through this €1.2 million initiative, which reflects our ongoing dedication to sustainability and supporting local Irish suppliers. "At ALDI, we are committed to making sustainability affordable for our customers, so shoppers can feel confident they are making responsible, sustainable choices when they shop with us. 'For the past year, we've been working closely with the Arigna team to bring their high-quality, renewable product to our shelves across Ireland. "We're committed to delivering benefits to both our customers and the environment and look forward to supplying Arigna's sustainable products to customers," Kirwan said. Commercial director of Arigna Group, Conor Layden said: 'We are delighted to announce our partnership with ALDI to bring Harvest Flame, our sustainable biomass product, to households across the country. 'This partnership represents a strategic advancement in our commercial expansion and reinforces our commitment to delivering renewable, low-emission heating solutions. "Harvest Flame is engineered for efficiency and sustainability, offering a reliable alternative to traditional solid fuels while supporting Ireland's transition to a low-carbon economy.'

Dublin rental causes outrage over 720€ bed... to share with random man
In the latest damning indictment of the current housing/renting system in the country, an advertisement for a horrifying living 'arrangement' has caused outrage. A post was shared to the Rent in Dublin Facebook page, being posted by a user 'on behalf of a friend' who was perhaps too ashamed to advertise such a 'property'. The post offered a €720 a month listing where you would be expected to share a bed. Not a room, but a bed. The apartment, which admittedly is well furnished, appears to drop in the tidbit as if it were no big deal (despite the fact that such a detail is grim at best, illegal at worst) and was shared by Ciaran from Crazy House Prices — who said that this is yet another symptom of the ongoing housing crisis. 'This is a really grim symptom of a completely broken housing system in Ireland, but especially Dublin,' he wrote in the caption, adding in the video that these listings are unfortunately all too common on unregulated Facebook groups, as they'd be considered illegal sublets on other, more legitimate, sites. 'These Facebook groups are an absolute cesspit for things like this,' Ciarán said. 'This is down to decades of really terrible government housing policy. This is a symptom of those policies that are leaving everything up to the private sector and the vulture funds and all that kind of stuff.' As for the poor lad who's sharing the full (soon to be half) bed in the first place, Ciarán said that he wouldn't be the one to blame — saying 'I doubt the fella on the other side of the bed either wants to be paying 720 quid a month to rent half of a bed in Dublin, but this is where we're at. The market is just completely broken, and this is a symptom of it.' The post was shared to the Rent in Dublin Facebook page. People were horrified at what was being proposed, but others were a little less surprised — with one commenting 'Quite common (sadly) in student lets!' 'Shocking! One of the richest countries in the world and the government can't get fair access to affordable and safe housing,' another wrote. Others found a bit of comedy in this utter tragedy — with one commenting 'Does it mention whether you need to be the big or little spoon? Asking for a mate,' while another added, 'he better be buying dinner first.' The post was shared to the Rent in Dublin Facebook page. This is the latest in a number of properties to rent that are proof that it can, in fact, get worse — and it's spreading outside of the capital, after an apartment in Clare being advertised for nearly €2,000 a month had a few convenient pull out beds for 'a few extra people' — with people being able to put two and two together.
