Festive Yankee Candles!





Hello! Hope you are all well. As you can tell unfortunately I can’t take part in Blogmas this year, really gutted but I didn’t realise how busy I am.

How is the weather where you are, there is a storm here! Nothing like being cosy with a movie, popcorn and some festive candles! I wouldn’t say I’m new to Yankee Candles but I have never really been able to justify spending all that money on a candle and have settled for the little sampler candles and wax tarts instead.

This candle was my first ever actual candle jar purchase and I went for the large jar! I purchased it this time last year and never burnt it till this year. The large jar has lasted a pretty long time the actual burning time is 110-150 hours. It is a great scent for this time of year very relaxing. Aptly named this candle I’d say smells exactly like vanilla icing! 

I purchased this candle a few days ago and have been burning it since. I didn’t realise how little it was until I received it. I now totally think the bigger jars are worth the money. It’s not as strong as the Christmas Cookie candle but does leave a subtle scent if that makes sense?! It smells similar to an apple pie and is quite a warming scent.

I would shop around for Yankee Candles as some places are cheaper than others. eBay always has a range at a discounted price, so you can often be able to grab a bargain!

I hope you enjoyed this post of my current favourite candles! Do you have any suggestions, if so please let me now in the comments!

  1. I'm obsessed with candles! I have seen Yankee candles long ago, but unfortunately I had never tried them. I think that it's time for me to try them. Good blog post!

    1. They are one of the best I have tried so far! I do however think the smaller jars are a waste of money, the large jars are worth it! x

  2. I'm not much of a candle person but my friends absolutely loves Yankee Candle. Think I might have to get the Christmas Cookie candle to give away as a little Christmas gift...

    1. True, Sugared Apple was a little difficult to find, a lot of places had sold out. Fireside Treats sounds good, will have a look into that :) x
