My particular candle was poured uneven where when you light both wicks, one wick goes out because one side burns more than the other side. I’ve never had this happen with a yankee candle before. I figured out that if I burned the candle a while and dumped the wax out - it burns even now!Besides that this is a good candle. I don’t love the iced berry lemonade scent I was thinking it would be a bit more fresh and pure (it’s a little too sweet and heavy maybe) but it is pretty fresh overall and nicely made. Long lasting.I adore sage fragrances. This yankee candle with the citrus added is just right. I could not tell of the smell until the next morning. I woke to this most adoring fragrance. I am so impressed right now and hope it continues until it burns out. I purchased two on purpose. If it last like I hope I will be purchasing more. So far worth the price.Although this doesn't smell like any lemons I've ever smelled, I'm giving this candle 4 stars. It's not a bad smell, just very strong and not lemony. However, since our new rescue dog is undergoing heartworm treatment and his medicines make him release some especially fragrant odors, this candle does an absolutely outstanding job of keeping the house breathable for the rest of us. Good job non-lemony lemon candle!Love Yankee Candles! If you never have had one, start with Fresh Cut Roses. It is outstanding. When I can get full size jar candles at this price, I order a few to keep for last minute hostess gifts. They never fail to impress!I love the sage scented candles but it is always hard to find just sage scent. This one includes citrus but the sage fragrance is present.I bought this candle because I love the smell, it unfortunately came shattered. I reached out to amazon and they sent out a new candle plus a refund HOWEVER when I got the new one.. also came shattered. It’s poor packaging for a great product.The smell was different from my expectation. It's not fresh smell but sweet.I use it in my home to give it a fresher more outdoors odor.Leider hat diese angebliche Lemon-Lavender Mischung keinerlei Lemon abgekriegt. Daher nur 1 Stern. Seit einigen Jahren bemerke ich einen riesen Unterschied in Duftnoten u. -stärken bei Yankee Candles. Wie bei vielen Produktion wird anscheinend auch hier getrickst und gespart. Katastrophe! In diesem Glas wird der Duft nach kurzem immer penetranter und verursacht tatsächlich Abneigung und einen Hauch von Kopfschmerz. Lem.-Lav. war einer meiner Lieblinge gewesen, weil er herrlich angenehm u. zart nach wirklicher Duft-Komposition roch. Eine gelungene Mischung! Ebenso Lemongrass-Ginger. Was toll begann ist jetzt nur noch Geldmache u. Verarsche. Warum? Die aus den USA riechen traditioneller u. echter, als diejenigen, die sonstwo innerhalb Europas nach-gepanscht werden mit abweichenden Inhalts- u. Duftstoffen. Bei den "Europäern" steht dann hinten drauf: Yankee-Candle Company Limited/ Subsiduary of /Une Filiale de Newel Brands......usw. Die Angaben sind dermaßen klein geschrieben, dass man sich extrem anstrengen muss, die Schrift überhaupt entziffern zu können. Früher waren die Gläser zudem eingeschweißt, was die Düfte haltbarer machte. Heute stehen sie teilweise Jahre, zumindest Monate auf den Regalen und werden zig mal von Kunden geöffnet, um hinein zu schnuppern. Daran riechen ist natürlich ganz okay, sofern die samples später nicht verkauft werden - Thema "Verfallsdatum" - denn Düfte verflüchtigen sich ja bzw. können sich im offenen Zustand verändern, bis hin zum ranzig werden mancher Inhaltsstoffe. Es kommt jedenfalls immer häufiger vor, dass Yankee Produkte stark abweichen. Als Fan muss man also mit Argusaugen u. Nachforschung etc. pp. ständig hinterher ist. Zum Ko.....! Das Glas ist kaum abgebrannt und fliegt in die Tonne. Teure, super ärgerliche Angelegenheit. Meine Kritik bezieht sich hauptsächlich auf die Hersteller, da der Verkäufer nichts für die Inhaltstoffe/Herstellung kann. Aber jeder Händler sollte künftig mehr darauf achten, woher die Ware stammt u. ob es sich bei seinem Verkauf z.B. um Ausstellungsware handelt. Diese Angaben einfach mal bei den Produktinformationen mit angeben. Ruhig einmal vorangehen u. fairer, professioneller Warenauszeichnungen ergänzend beschreiben. Es darf auch im Handel "gemenschelt" werden, u. bitte nicht nur zur Weihnachtszeit.I think lemon and lavender is one of the best Yankee Candles! I use it in the evening and on the next day when I'm back from work my house still smells like the candle. It's amazing. I would say if you're not a fan of strong smells, use the smaller candles instead because I believe the large jars have a much stronger smell than the little ones. I personally love it and would definitely buy again in the future.I buy this aromatic jar continually as in memory of my late, dear wife, and because it now appears to have been deletedfrom Yankee Candle's regular year-round stock, it is only at special times of the year, as at this Christmas, that I canpurchase several jars to keep me going , Please keep large 'Mandarin Cranberry' going!.I love Yankee Candles, especially fruity scents. They are a bit on the pricier side, but the large jar lasts a long time and the smell fills the room so I feel like it makes up for it.One thing I would say is if you buy a larger jar, make sure you have the time to burn it for a decent period of time so the melted wax can even out. Otherwise the candle won't melt properly which can be a bit wasteful (if this happens when it's completely burnt out, I usually melt down the remaining wax myself and create another candle with other waxs).I would recommend this candle for people who like sweet, fruity scents.I couldn't get to the Yankee shop because of lockdown and my grandson always buys one of these candles for for his mum's birthday this time I was very very happy because it come in a yankee box and actually it was better than buying out the shop because it had a presentation box with it just cardboard but it says Yankee on the side so very very happy and I will buy this in future because it's the same price as the yanky shop so thank you for . Great price great presentation I don't fault you in and anyway thank you
