I love Yankee Candles, they are by far the longest lasting smelling candles ever!! My favorite is the Pumpking Spice, and the Apples and Cinnamon. Hallmark card stores sell them and some places even have a Yankee Candle store, they are very high priced but well worth it. So what is your favorite smelling candle and where do you get yours from? Also I'm trying to find a company where I can sell candles from home, you know like home parties, but I don't like partylite, any suggestions? Thanks!!

My favourite candle scent is Tea and Ginger, we buy it at a French shop that's part of a chain.

You don't like the smell of candles or they are just too strong? I find that some smells are stronger than others, but you are definitely safe with Vanilla, not too strong but enough that it makes the house smell good. Thanks for sharing!!

I like to get the hazelnut and cream candles from Walmart. They usually last me a long time and smell up a room very well.

Yep, Yankee Candles do have some great smells. I also like the Henri Bendel candles from Bath and Body Works. Those are really strong, and there seems to be some more sophisticated scents that are available there. I also like candles from Aveda, as they are fragranced naturally from essential oils, and not from synthetic fragrances. My favorite is probably the Caribbean therapy candle from Aveda.

I've never heard of Aveda, where can you get those? Just hearing you say Caribbean makes me think that is smells fresh and clean, is it? Thanks for sharing.

I started using Mia Bella's candles. They are soy-based. These candles burn evenly, not down the middle, so there is almost no leftover wax on the jars. And the scent stays stong all the way to the bottom. I you would like to check them out visit www.mycandlefarm.com.
