If like me, you love this time of year and use it as a good excuse to restock your candle supply with some seasonally appropriate scents this post is for you! Here are my favourites from the Yankee Candle Christmas collection...

Christmas Cookie 

(sweet)

If you love sweet scented candles this one is for you! It smells of buttery rich, vanilla scented cookies, perfect for filling your home with a freshly baked treats scent!

Cosy By The Fire

This is a new addition to the Yankee Candle Christmas selection. A warm mixture of ginger, cloves and orange  combined with woody notes to give the snap of a crackling fire and the comfort of a hot drink beside it.

Christmas Tree

If you love the scent of pine Christmas trees, you'll love this candle. A fresh aroma of fresh cut pine boughs and zesty berries!

Candy Cane Lane

(fresh & sweet)

A lovely peppermint scented candle that combines the aroma of freshly baked cookies and creamy vanilla icing- sounds good enough to eat!

Gingerbread Maple

(sweet)

Another new addition to the Yankee Candle family (and one of my all time favourites!) This candle combines the rich aroma of baking spices and warm fragrance of cloves with a touch of maple. Dreamy!

Sparkling Cinnamon

(spicy)

A real traditional Christmas scent, spicy warmth of real cinnamon sticks with a touch of clove. Perfect for bringing some

scented comfort into your home.
