Yankee Candle Newbie




You may have read my review of the Skittles Strawberry Scented Candle from a couple of weeks ago and shortly after I posted it, somebody recommended that I try the ever-so popular Yankee Candle, so I thought I would give them a go! As I'm a newbie, I thought I would order a few samplers first to find a scent that I like, as the larger candles are more expensive.

I chose to buy:
  • Fresh Cut Roses
  • Loves Me, Loves Me Not
  • Coastal Waters
The reason I chose these three candles is because the scents bring back fond memories of the Summer. Freshly cut flowers and the smell of the coast remind me of being on holiday and I'd much rather close my eyes and imagine I'm lying in the sun than walking outside in the rain, being hit by gusts of wind whilst my brolly turns inside out (very embarrassing when you're on your own, walking past a crowd of people on the street!)

Anyway, I can't wait to light these candles as the smell is exactly how I imagined it would be! I'll definitely be ordering some larger ones when these have burnt down!



What's your favourite Yankee Candle? Any recommendations? :-)

Thanks for reading!
