mine varies from season to season ... I tend to like "linen" during the spring and summer and then during the fall I like heavier scents like vanilla, and apple spice ...

I also like linen but my absolute fav is lilac. I cant find that scent in stores, have to get it from candle makers usually.

I hate to admit it but I am a bit of a candle addict. My all time favorite is Yankee Candle Co Cinnamon but I love the tarts more than the candles themselves.
I am also a big fan of those primitive cake candles. So cute!!!

hmmm for me anything that makes the house smell like I am baking......like baked apple, cinn bun, etc etc........ for some reason all blue candles give me a HUGE headache, so i have to steer away from them.

I just got a new Yankee one called Harvest. It smells like cinnamon, apples, and a few other things I can't quite tell what they are.

Mine tend to vary by season. I love lilac in the spring and summer...if I burn them at all in spring/summer as I like having the windows open and just smelling the fresh air!! Fall I love Pumpkin and Winter cinnamon.

Gold Canyon Pomegrante - followed by teaberry.

if I can't get Gold Canyon then the Candle Cottage from Lancaster PA makes rockin' versions of these scents. I have turned a many people onto these scents... they are lovely.

My favorite is Christmas Wish from Yankee Candle. My daughter bought it for me 3 years ago and they discontinued it shortly after. So I went to the local Yankee store and bought all the had then went to the online store and bought as much as I could afford icon_redface.gif K'ly

Does anyone know which one smells better-Granny Smith of Mac Intosh? Or are they basically the same scent, one just stronger? I liked them both, but had been sniffing so many candles already they were all smelling the same.

Personally, I like Granny Smith better. I think it has more smell to it icon_razz.gif Does that sound right icon_confused.gif K'ly

I love Yankee Spiced pumpkin but can't find them here. My BFF sent me them for my birthday last year. Isn't she awesome? anyway, my mom bought one for me at the Scarborough Renaissance Fair. It was vanilla mint. I really like that too.
