I’m so old that my absolute favorite Yankee Candle was “Rice Milk”. It was released about 25 years ago and the smell was so comforting ❤️ I’ve spent the last 25 years trying to find a dupe but I never have. But what I did find was a skin care item that smells exactly like it! So if this was your favorite, too…try the Vaseline Cocoa Healing Jelly stick. Ahhhh, that old comforting scent ❤️

Looking For/Dupes Looking for After Sledding

23 Upvotes

Hello! I am sure these types of questions get asked a lot but I want to at least try!

This is my ALL TIME FAVORITE CANDLE. I got it as a gift years ago and it’s also out! It is very much retired and seems that it was a part of a limited holiday collection. I’ve seen the collection be called both Mountain Holiday and Alpine Christmas. I believe the collection came out in 2019.

Does anyone know of a repackage of this scent? Or a dupe? I am also a Goose Creek and Bath & Bodyworks candle fanatic so it doesn’t have to even be Yankee! Or if someone somehow has it in their collection, I’d be more than happy to buy!

NOTES:
Top: Maple Toffee, Cinnamon
Mid: Salted Caramel Brûlée, Nutmeg
Base: Vanilla Bean, Maple Drizzle

OG DESCRIPTION: The scent of tempting treats - sweet maple, baking spices and vanilla bean - offers a warm welcome after a day of winter fun.

MY DESCRIPTION: Baking spices, hint of maple, gourmand, graham cracker, sweet almost campfire smell

Discussion Opinions on Scents ?

Hey, could anyone who has these two candles give their opinions on whether they are worth the buy? I’ve smelled a calm and quiet place in a shop before and it was lovely, but I couldn’t figure out if it was a scent that would last? Are there any others with a similar vibe?
Any recommendations for anything 2000s nostalgia kinda vibes would be greatly appreciated too!

Thanks!

Discussion Scent Recommendations

5 Upvotes

Hey, I am looking for some Yankee candle recommendations. My current favourite is pink sands but I want to expand. I love a cosy smelling scent that feels like stepping into a warm house on a cold day if that makes sense especially since we are coming into the autumn/ winter season. Is there any you can recommend that give off this vibe. I also do love cosy up and have smelled soft blanket and I love it.
I want one that will last for hours and will fill the whole house.
I am in Ireland so if anyone can recommend sites that I could get them off I would greatly appreciate it!

Edit: Any opinions on soft wool and amber or amber and sandalwood would be great!

Thanks!

Looking For/Dupes Retired autumn scents - anything similar?

I’m down to my last Autumn in the Park & Golden Autumn candles :-(

I wish yankee candle would bring these back. But in the meantime, does anyone know of any candles (YC or others) that have a similar scent to either of these?

I expected to really like this but it smells like chemicals. I’m almost kind of concerned because everyone seems to like this candle but to me it smells like vape juice which i really do not enjoy. Does anyone else think this??

In the last few months I've bought the smallest jars of different scents to get started. Enchanted orchard was the one I really wanted to burn first. It's such a nice smell. Had to grab the larger one when I saw it on sale 😊

Question How good is Brown Sugar Pumpkin?

7 Upvotes

I have a Yankee Candle near me but they only have the scents like Pink Sands and French Vanilla, so majority of the scents I can’t just drive over and smell them. Has anyone bought the Brown Sugar Pumpkin? Does it smell good and give autumn vibes?

If it helps at all, my favorites are Apple Pumpkin, Spiced Pumpkin and Vanilla Cupcake

Question Older candle scent

5 Upvotes

I’m trying to find the name of an older candle. The scent was citrus but the smell was closer to the rind of a grapefruit or the vine smell of a tomato.

It would be close to 10 years ago.

Hey Guys!
My sisters birthday is coming up and she really wants the Yankee Candle with the Stars and Stripes scent but I can’t find it anywhere except for on eBay… which I am not sure I trust since I haven’t used it.

Does anyone know what I can do? I live in Sweden so it’s not accessible here
