Yankee Candle Haul

Wednesday 18 February 2015

After using up my entire Yankee Christmas Cookie candle I decided I needed a new scent so naturally, I purchased 3. In my defence, I wasn’t really planning on stopping myself at just one candle. I don’t even attempt to bring willpower to the game anymore.


As winter seems to have returned again after a week of sun and slightly above freezing temperatures I decided I wanted a candle that was a little more tropical. As soon as I got a whiff of Black Coconut in the store I knew I had to have it.


It’s funnily enough a coconut scented candle that smells delicious in the jar but not so much when it’s burning. Annoyingly it doesn’t give off a very strong scent so my dreams of being reminded of beaches and palm trees by Black Coconut have been ruined. The flame also reaches heights it shouldn’t even after various trims of the wick.


Berrylicious was purchased as it went with the scent of Lush The Comforter bubble bar perfectly. It’s a gorgeous, fruity scent that completely fills the room with its berry goodness. This is a sweet scent but it’s also very warm and inviting. If you ever use The Comforter bubble bar you need to burn Berrylicious with it.


Black Cherry was purchased as I wanted another fruity scent. This is a fairly genetic candle that is completely overpowered when burned alongside Berrylicious but dear god is it lovely! Black Cherry drips sugary goodness and makes me crave Cherry Drops (can you still buy them?) like there’s no tomorrow. It’s a great candle to burn on cold, wintery nights but it can become a little sickly if you burn it for too long.

So there we have my little Yankee candle haul. I didn't even plan on buying any of these, I just sort of stumbled into the Yankee candle store and decided right there and then I needed to replace Christmas Cookie. Why must Yankee candle stores be in shopping centres? Just take my money!
