Yankee Candle - Review

I love candles. I love the aroma as well as the homey feel when you walk into a room where a candle is burning.  I have asthma and allergies. So I cannot use just any candle.  I have to be very careful of the kind of wick the candle has as well as the kind of oils they use in the candles.

I am very choosy about the companies I purchase from and recommend. I want to know that a company is US based and gives back to the community.

Facts about Yankee candles:

1.  With  fragrance extracts and real essential oils in them.

2. Made In the USA

I enjoy various aromas as the seasons change and  Yankee offers many scents to choose from.  They are always adding new scents.

The Yankee Candle company also donates to charities. You can check that out here.

Yankee candles are a bit more expensive than the cheaper ones but they are worth it. They burn longer, no fake oils are used in them so I can breath. I don't have to purchase them as often because they come in a large 22oz size that burns 110-150 minutes.

Yankee candles come in various sizes including the following:

Tarts

Tea Light candles

Voltive candles,

Jar candles come in 3 sizes: 22 oz, 14.5 oz & 3.7 oz

Pillars

Tapers

Floats

2 wick candles

My favorite size is the 22 oz housewarming jar candle. My favorite scent changes as the seasons change or my mood.

They do go on sale at the ends of the season and I purchase them for next year but when not on sale, the 22 oz size will run you about $25.

On their site, they offer tips on making  your candles last longer.  They have safety and burning tips. Click here to read that information.

As you can see, I am passionate about Yankee candles and I have used them for years. I purchase them as gifs as well because the people that I know deserve the best and so do I.
