Yankee Candle Jar Candles Review

Bottom-Line: Yankee Candle Jar Candles are the best way to experience that special Yankee Candle hominess. 

I can still remember the first time I smelled a Yankee Candle Jars Candle; it was in the Navy Exchange in Newport, RI, my hometown.  I was home on leave from Pearl Harbor HI.  I feel in love with the sweet, but earth scent of the candle, and took several back to Hawaii with me, in order to have a little slice of home. 

Now, each time I return to Newport for a visit, a stop at the local Yankee Candle Shop in Long Wharf Mall on Thames Street is a must.  When you first step across the threshold, you are greeted with a symphony of scents that could only be orchestrated by Mother Nature (Sunflower, Storm Watch, Citrus & Teakwood) or Grandma (Sugared Plums, Warm Apple Crisp, and Cranberry Chutney). 

There are scents that evoke the feelings of home (Autumn Lodge, Christmas Wreath, and Fireside) and other scents that take you someplace new (Island Mango, Pineapple Paradise, and Seaside Holiday). 

In addition to the scents, there are a variety of candle options for you to try.  Choose from votives, tarts, tea-lights, pillars, tapers, fire-starters, floating, car jars (a must), crocks and two sizes of candle jars.   There are bath and body products, home fragrances, and accessories such as decorative jar toppers, tart burners, votive holders, and much more.  All in all, Yankee Candle is the premier nationwide supplier of quality candles with a dizzying assortment of robust fragrances and charming accessories.

My Viewpoint

Once you've purchased a Yankee Candle Jars Candle (or several in my case), you soon become aware of the premium quality and long-lasting nature of its varied fragrances.  Yankee Candle Jars Candles can also be purchased in Hallmark Stores and other retailers, so if you find a candle that you like, ordering more online is simple and you don't have to worry if you'll like the scent. 

The prices of Yankee Candle Jars Candles tend to be higher than what you would find in your local department store ($24.99 for a 22-ounce candle jar).  But, at the same time, you definitely get what you pay for: strong, true fragrance from beginning to end, a long burning time (110 - 150 hours), and an assortment of fragrances that you simply can't get anywhere else.

From humble beginning back in the early eighties, Yankee Candle Company has become the premiere place to purchase scented candles that mirror the best fragrances nature has to offer.  And Yankee Candle Jar Candles are the best way to experience that special Yankee Candle hominess.
