I love Yankee Candle.


My favorites are the vanilla, pumpkin, buttercream - type smells. I think most of my favorites are in some way food-related
Many of the Yankee Candle floral scents are too strong for me

I like the food scents too, especially buttercream. I also like the Yankee's scents like clean linen, cottage breeze, and the ocean/water scents.

I'm allergic to scented things (like, scented Febreze bothers me) so I like BIRTHDAY CANDLES!!!!!!! Yay!

Oh, and the title of this thread is mildly terrifying. I think you're a pyro!

Love Yankee candles...unfortunately they stopped making my favorite scent Banana nut bread! I love all the fall scents.
Also my other favorite is @ Bath and Body the Henri Bendel Candle in Vanilla YUM
I also order from www.countrypassion.com they are shaped like tortes and cakes and smell so good but I don't burn them...people always asked if I baked.

Be sure to watch out for your kittes when candles are lit.Sophia has put her head in a candle 3-4 times she just never learns and it smelled really bad but she was okay!

I love candles, but don't light them at home anymore due to wandering kitty with flammable bushy tail!

I'm actually going to get set up as a Partylite rep and start selling candles at candle parties within the next couple of months. I'm really looking forward to it - I just hope I can find enough folks to throw candle parties in my area!

I LOVE partylite candles, best candles on the planet IMO... I was also a rep, but ended up spending way too much of my own money on it

I have wierd favorite candle smells.

There is one I love called "Grass" and another called "Tomato plant" They both smell lovely like summer. It is a local person in my area that makes them I can't get enough of them.

Hobby Lobby vanilla candles rock! So does their black cherry. I used to work for Hobby Lobby, and the manager would sell damaged ones to us for next to nothing.
I love Yankee Candles, I worked for them also, but they are so expensive. Buttercream and Patchouli are my faves, but they don't make the Patchouli any more. I worked at the outlet store, so I bought out the ones that came into the store. I still have a few.
Nag Champa incense is my favorite, and almost anything Liquid Blue. I am so glad Spencer's has them.
I use shades and deep jars so the kitties won't get to them, and I never leave the room with any lit, but we have still had a few incidents. Fred ran across the coffee table unexpectedly once and singed his tail, and just last night, Pepper jumped up on top of the tv and tried to sniff a jar candle. I think I scared her more than the candle did, they way I screamed hysterically at her.

My sister makes soy wax candles and I can get the rejects real cheap - as in free. Love her mint julep and chocolate cake. I have one of her honeysuckle ones sitting on top of my computer.

She also made banana nut bread candles. I wonder if she has a small one...

I am a Yankee Candle nut!!! I don't like to buy other candles cause they are just not the same, no matter how much anyone ever tries to convince me. The one I usually have in my living room is the vanilla caramel....
, but it's mostly because it matches my caramel colored couch. In my pink bathroom, I have the fresh cut roses scent, which smells just like real roses, not like that powdery fake "rose" smell that people try to use. And in my bedroom I have the clean cotton scent. It smells like fresh laundry...almost like Tide. Really good.... But hubby likes the Midsummer Night candle. It's sweet, but kind of masculine.... more like cologne, less like flowers or food. Very good....

I buy any candles that are 75% off. I especially like Pier One Christmas candles. Every spring I make a special trip there to stock up on their after-Christmas sale.
