Help, Yankee candle

bump c:

My wife recommends Garden Sweet Pea (Flower), Home Sweet Home (Spice), or Lovely Kiku (Flower).

I have a problem with incense and candles, lol. I collect way too many and pretty much have at least one thing with a nice smell going at all times, if I'm awake. That said I find most yankee stuff overpriced and you can easily get something not as pricey with a just as good if not better smell profile than yankee products. The one exception to that is Midsummer's Night. Its one of my favorite scents and I've yet to find anything that can be substituted for it. I went and looked it up and this is how its described on their site:

"An intoxicating and masculine blend of musk, patchouli, sage and mahogany cologne.

Fragrance Notes:

Top: Citrus, Herbaceous, Woody, Bergamot, Lime
Mid: Lavender, Pine Floral Sage
Base: Cedarwood, Vetiver, Juniper Berry, Clary Sage, Moss"

That said, it probably does have a more woodsy/smokey/masculine cologne sort of smell than floral so if that's not something you're looking for, ignore this vote.

I would advise though that if you do bother with something from yankee avoid basic single scents like "lavender" or "vanilla" and go for a unique blend you can't get elsewhere, so you at least get something unique and interesting enough to make it worth the price.

Not in the Netherlands? If you google yankee candle, plenty of results to buy them from stores.

Scents and what they do

bump and I went with fresh. I think fresh is a good general choice

These are made in New England. I recommend Autumn—that's what New England is known for.

Autumn and Winter are the candle seasons, to me, so I'd recommend Autumn Wreath or Sparkling Cinnamon. Vanilla Cupcake is really good, but if you're limited to a small number, it probably isn't worth wasting one on Vanilla, which I'm sure you can find an equivalent to locally.

Overpriced. Please buy 2 or more of other candles for less price.

Please.

Waarom?

Why not try a bacon, burrito, or nacho cheese scented candle? I've never heard of this company before, but they have a lot of scented candles. Like new car smell, leather jacket, and gasoline. I guess that'd be a good combo for watching the Indy 500. Black licorice is notable, too.

I had a really nice lavender Yankee candle before. Id highly recommend it if you have the option

I like the smell of vanilla.:)
