New Scents

If you’ve read my blog much, or know me personally, you know that I have developed a new-found obsession for obtaining and burning Yankee Candles in the last couple of years. I love them, can’t get enough of them. I buy different ones every time, and yes, horror of horrors, I’ve even been known to burn different smells in different rooms at the same time. I know, it’s not right, but I do it sometimes. :mrgreen:

Tim indulged me at both my birthday last fall and at Christmas and bought me new jar candles. No, I have not burned all of those up yet. In fact, I haven’t even started burning the Farmhouse Apple I got at Christmas. No, that doesn’t stop me from coveting more, from wanting to try new scents, and yes, actually purchasing some. I got a small one a couple of weeks ago at Bed, Bath and Beyond (using a coupon), called Juicy Orange. I haven’t burned it yet, so I don’t know if I will like it. I loved the Juicy Cherry one I got last summer, so if I don’t like this one, I will probably go pick up a Juicy Cherry one again.

Then, yesterday, when I was shopping with Wendy, I found one I had been wanting since last summer – Cherry Lemonade. I’m burning it now and I love it. Tim, on the other hand, hates it, so I have it back in the office by my computer.

Here’s my newest ones:

2 New Yankee Candles

    that might be a good one for me as well! love most anything cherry

  2. Stace Said,

    Gail – yes, you probably would like it, although it’s as tart from the lemon as it is sweet from the cherry. Tim hates it, but I am really liking it so far. I haven’t burned the Juicy Orange one yet.

    I get emails from Yankee Candle and they’ve got a bunch of new scents. I think the Cherry Lemonade was new last year, but there are several new fruity fragrances. In an email I got, here’s some they listed:

    Berry Tangerine
    Juicy Watermelon
    Fruit Smoothie (I want this one too!)
    Greenhouse
    Fresh Mint

    I also got a mail-out in the regular mail and it showed 3 other ones – Chocolate Cappucino, Vanilla Oak (??) and Roasted Coffee.

    So, you have lots of new choices! 🙂

  3. Gail Said,

    The watermelon, cherry lemonade and berry tangerine appeal to me right off! Will have to go “smell” soon!
    ooh and maybe the fruit smoothie too!

    I love Juicy Orange! Saw it the other day in the Yankee store. Man, I love those candles.
