Guest guest Posted February 1, 2003 Report Share Posted February 1, 2003 Jeanie. Yankee candles are like "IT". LOL.... They are the most wondeful smelling candles and tarts. When you buy a scent, it smells like that. If I burn peach, it smells like fresh peaches, buttercream smells like you are making a cake. I mean it permeates the house, is long lasting and true to scent, and they are strong. There is also a company called ROOT candles that are good, and Bridgewater is good too. But Yankee rocks. They have beautiful tart burners, cermamic lampshades for the bigger housewarmer jar candles, carjars, these are yankke scents you hang in your car, and all kinds of cool and seasonal stuff too. They also have the country kitchen collection scents. Stuff like buttermilk pancake, lemon poundcake ( YUM), orange cupcake, blueberry pie, etc... Check it out.www.yankeecandle.com You can check out their stuff and scents. Love, normi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2003 Report Share Posted February 1, 2003 Jeanie. No problem. I like the tarts the most, as I have 2 tart burners. I can buy say 30 tarts ,they are 99 cents each. I can buy different fragrances , vs the same scent. Also, the tarts usually are good for the day. You use the little votive candles in the tins, put them in the bottom of the tart burner and you usually can use one tart , to two of the votives. They also have aromatherapy candles and tarts. They have romantic, cleansing, rejuvenating, relxing, etc.. Anyhow, if you like candles, you will LOVE these. Normi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
