yankee candle scents

05-20-2005, 10:30 AM

My mom got me a $50 gift card fro that store but there is not one near us. So i can use it on line, but i dont know what they smell like. So if i tell you what scents i tend to lkie can you suggest something?
i like to have food scents instead of flowers. I get migraines from flowery stuff. I love Cranberry, Sanfdalwood, vanilla, mango and peach. ect.
what would you reccomend?

Vanilla Cookie. It's my favorite scent, not too sickenly sweet, light and pleasant, like cookies in the oven.

I had some burning when Miranda was born.

There's one called, I think, Cranberry Chutney, that I like. Blueberry Pie is yummy. as is chocolate chip cookie dough.

My MIL also can't take the flowery scents, and she got me started on Macintosh. Smells apple fresh, but isn't too strong

Green grass is luscious. My fav is Midnight something-er-other. Smells like my DH.

Absolute fave is MacIntosh apple! I used to work at a store that sold them so I got to smell them all and that one is fabulous. I'm planning on having one going during labor too.

Definatly Macintosh!

I also really enjoy the Christmas Cookie scent. ITA that the food scents are better than the floral ones!

one more question and then i swear i am done and off to order. Have any of you ever used the wax potpourri burners? and are they worth it? thanks i am so excited

I use their tarts and tart burners all of the time

As a native-Floridian, the tropical scents are really comforting to me, so I like their new Carrirbean Fruit, Pineapple, Sunwashed Linen (not fruity, but so clean!), Fresh Melon, and Summer Fresh (I think that's what its called). All of the above mentioned ones by the pp are great too!

on vanilla cookie/sugar cookie/christmas cookie (think it's the same scent, they just change the name depending on the season) and on buttercream and fresh linen. They also have some nice vanilla combination candles like carmel vanilla etc.

Let us know what you get, I'm always on the look out for more yummy smelling candles.

Me too! So many foods are off-limits, so I compensate by buying candles that smell like food!

It sounds like I need to go to the mall to smell the MacIntosh scent.

The Macintosh apple one is great. I also like Clean Cotton and Home Sweet Home (kinda cinnamony). I've got Fresh Comfort at the moment but it's a bit strong. Every time I light it, dh blows it out. :/

My two very favorites from Yankee are cranberry chutney and macintosh apple.

I love the brown sugar scent. also the sage and citrus. What's a tart and tart burner?
