Yankee Candle Scent

I wish Yankee would start making soy candles, because those are the only types of candles I burn since I got Cupid, but it's hard to find them. I used to love Clean Cotton, Fresh Comfort, Splash of Rain, Summer Fresh, Midsummer's Night, Calla Lilly, Chardonnay...okay, I loved all of them. (except the spicey ones)

Spiced Pumpkin... smells like the holidays.

If I worked in a store, I would have to turn my whole paycheck over to them every week! I don't know where I am worse, at Yankee Candle, or Bath and Body Works!

Chris(Captiva) introduced me to those yankee candle tarts just before christmas and she sent me a selection, and they were gorgeous!!!!.

I found a supplier over in the UK but i have to order them.

I could really take home one of almost everything! I love candles. I really like Coconut Bay, i was so mad when it was discontinuted... but now I mostly buy Fresh Cut Roses

OOOOOHHHHHH!!!! Two of my favorite scents!! That's it - I'm going to a Yankee Candle store!!

By the way, one of my favorite perfumes is Patchouli from Crabtree & Evelyn. I think that's been discontinued too.

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!

I miss Yankee Candle! I loved it, I always burned the tarts every day - I loved the Snow Angels one, the clean cotton, Midsummers Night, sunkissed linen or whatever its called, the granny smith, oh I love them ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh boo hoo, i am devastated. I wish we had a yankee candle here.

Well I think we know what Secret Santa can get you!

So your shopping sprees look like mine, Karen ?

My favorites?

Tangerine/Peach
Clean Cotton and Sunwashed Linen
Fresh Cut Roses
Splash of Rain

I like a ton more than just those, though

I always get the wax tarts at the Hallmark store, & like alot of them, but my faves are..
Lilac Blossoms
Wedding Day
Seaside Holiday
Autumn Lodge..
Most of the florals,& the clean smells.
Think I'll go put one in, which one shall I choose?

French Vanilla, Clean Cotton, Raspberry Cream, Hazelnut Coffee and Fresh Comfort.

All of them. Anything fruity or spicy (clove). I love to go to the company flagship outlet store in Deerfield, MA and smell everything. They have all the scents! Everything! Last time I dropped 80 bucks! They have a seconds area and make your own candle, plus a cool Christmas area. They used to have a auto museum but not anymore. It was good I think for offloading the husband while the wife shops. I think they have a home goods area there now.

Been there, done that! The Bavarian Christmas Village is amazing! Spent LOTS of $$$$$ ..... ooooooo a home goods section? Maybe it's time for another road trip!

My favorite scent is the standard French Vanilla. I also like Mulberry, although I'm not 100% sure that's what Yankee Candle calls it. I used to love to burn candles but now that I have cats, I hesitate to burn them.

But that's one of the great things about Yankee Candles - you don't have to burn them to get that fabulous scent!

OH, and they have little warming thingies for scented candles in the glass jars (like Yankee Candles) where it just warms the wax to release the scent. They say it is safe around children and animals because it doesn't get hot enough to really burn. I've been thinking of getting one for a while now, and with this thread I think I'm going to have to bite the bullet and get one! :bightumb:

Buttercream!!!

I have a yankee candle that is pink, purple and blue (all bright colors) and it smells really fruity and delicious...I love it!

I didn't say I removed all candles and hid them in the closet!! I have one in the livingroom and another in the bathroom. One of my co-workers had given me a wax tart you are to place in a warmer. It smells wonderful.

I currently have:

Sweet Strawberry
Fresh Cut Roses
Raspberry Cream
French Vanilla

I probably like them in that order, too. I can't believe that no one has said Sweet Strawberry yet (well, not that I saw, anyways). It's soooo nice!

They're all tarts. My melter thingy actually has a little tea light (candle) that heats it, but I can turn the opening toward the wall, so the cats don't get to it. They're not big on actually knocking things over, just sniffing.

Edit: The last tart I used was lilac or lavender... It was pretty good, too, but it was a bit strong for my old, small room. I really ought to start using my tart warmer again, but I just bought some new pumpkin pie spice candles, so my house smells yummy without it.
