I grab this candle whenever it’s available on Amazon. First of all, you can’t beat Amazon’s price for a large Yankee Candle! The packaging is perfect. This candle wouldn’t break during shipping unless the truck drove over it. The scent is a perfect combination of citrus, floral and just a bit of sweet, with none overpowering the other. This is a scent that I love all year. If I had to complain about anything, Yankee Candle doesn’t seem to burn as well as it used to. I usually end up burning the wick out before the wax is used up, even burning for short periods of time. Instead of throwing it out, I melt the leftover wax and make a new candle. Nothing gets wasted. I would still give 10 stars if I could!Total love!! Lilac is my favorite scent and this candle delivers. Bought it for myself but can be a great gift to someone else. Other candles leave me wanting so this is the one to get. Also, when candle was all done I cleaned jar out (hot water soak a bit) and put small sea shells inside for decoration. Looked great! They stayed clean because of the lid too. So, multipurpose product. Could use for cotton balls, wrapped candies, etc...The Yankee candles are the best value for the money because they burn perfectly, smell divine, and are very long lasting. I could easily smell the candles before I opened the box ! I've spent much more than 5 times the price for luxury scented candles but I can't deny that these smell just as good as new on the 110th hour of burn time. The wax makes the difference. Package is secure. Very impressed !If you like a delicate floral scent with a hint of sweetness this is the candle for you! It had a touch of sweetness but mostly smells like a rose. Love it!I like everything about it: scent, long life. It’s great to walk into your home when it makes you feel you are in a heavenly clean and delightful environment.I buy this candle every 2-3 weeks.I bought this candle for a gift and it was absolutely perfect! I was worried that it might arrive broken but the packaging was protective and perfect.I was hoping for a stronger Rose scent, there is a mild Rose scent but the predominate scent smells like the "fresh cut greenery" smell in a florist's shop. Please don't get me wrong, if that's what you are looking for; a strong "greenery" smell with a background Rose scent, then this candle is for you. But if you (like me) are looking for a strong Rose scent, then keep looking. Sorry.Can't go wrong with a yankee candle on sale!This is my favourite fragrance and I understood it had been 'retired'. It was just by chance that I did a search under lilac that it came up so I ordered two.It was a bit expensive fir postage but I think they came from the US and when you think each candle gives you 150 hours of burning time it is well worth it. With Yankee candles you get the fragrance all the way to the end, it is just a matter of burning them correctly, i.e. always burn the candle until the melted wax reaches the jar, that way it won't tunnel and you will get a full 150 hours.Can't get this anywhere anymore. Loverly smell, just like the roses my nan used to grow..I don't like Fresh Cut Roses, another yankee candle. Wish they would reintrouduce this fragrence.i will be honest, bought as it was on offer as a stocking filler, had no idea on the smell but its not bad, hard to describe but not as bad as previous smelling candles ive had. the other half likes it (thats all that matters) and it was delivered in time for christmas and well packagedA faint smell of roses when opened but gave little scent when lit considering the price for this tiny jar my expectation was higherLovely scent, gentle and not too overpowering. Arrived in time states and well packaged
