I think the common misconception with candle users in the mass market and Yankee is that because it is the most readily available candle in the marketplace (Bed Bath and Beyond, Cracker Barrel,...

Yankee Candles are overpriced jars of cheap wax that doesn't burn clean or throw that great. I get better throwing candles and cleaner burning candles on ebay from small homemakers.

Overall I am not a big fan of YC. Here's why. I think they are way overpriced for the medicore quality you get. I have had way better luck w/ Swan Creek candles (their hazelnut is to die for) and...

I love Yankee Candle tarts! I burn these in my potpourri simmering pot. I have my favorites to include banana bread, cookies and cream, and others. No matter which scented tart I simmer, I find...

This is an average product. The scents are pretty good, but they are so expensive; I can find comparable candles for much cheaper elsewhere. I'd buy these again, but only for gifts--I'd go insane...

These are the best candles. They have such a wide-range of scents that anyone can find one they love. The greatest thing about these candles is that they burn down evenly, so you don't end up...

Hate hate hate these candles as they are the most synthetic smelling things that I have ever breathed. Not a patch on Diptyque. I was so disappointed after reading all the positive reviews. Yuck!...

I love their candles, the Banana Nut Bread is my favorite scent. But I do wish they smelled stronger.

I adore Yankee candles, I think they are the most delicious and often realistic. But I wish they made a vegan alternative made of soy instead.

I love these candles, but they are very sooty! The scents are fantastic though, so I am just careful where I burn them.

Yankee Candles are wonderful! Don't let the initial price of the large jars scare you off. These candles burn for hours and hours. They also burn down evenly so nothing is wasted. They are also...

These have to be the best candle out there. They are so aromatic and so much fun to shop for. For those who don't have a Yankee Candle store, try looking for them at Hallmark or the website...
