I've never been much of a candle/home fragrance lover. I used to love buying them but I would never bother using them, but 2013 saw a change in that with me moving into my student house in my beautiful bedroom. I became obsessed with perfecting the room and fell in love with home decor and in turn home fragrance. I've started a love with Yankee Candle's. I've only got one jar but have been obsessed with the samplers as I love popping them in little tea light holders from Tiger. I love trying out all of the scents and it's the same with the wax tarts, I've got quite the collection. Another love is the Home Fragrance range from The Body Shop, my favourite candle is definitely the Mandarin and Tangelo Candle, the scent is beautiful, super strong and fills the room. Another favourite from their range are their home fragrance oils. I have a beautiful oil burner and a large collection of the oils; my favourites would have to be the Pomegranate and Raspberry scent along with the Christmas Cranberry Scent.
I love trying out new candles, it's actually become my new obsession so please post all of your recommendations below!

Great picks. I love the scent of the Body Shop candle, but I've never been lucky with them and they don't burn very well at all leaving a big crater in the middle with lots of wax on the sides... Xx

I can see what you mean by the way it burns but I don't really mind with the Mandarin and Tangelo one because the scent is so strong! x
Deleteooo I have never tried Body Shop candles but I always love the fragrances they do. Next time I go in I am going to have sniff!!! xx
ReplyDeleteGive the home fragrance oils a sniff, they're even better! xx
DeleteMmm these all sound like they'd smell amazing! I'm in university halls at the moment so no candles for me *sob* but I'm moving in to a private flat later this year and my future roomie & I can't wait to go Yankee crazy!x

This sounds oh too familiar to me, sounds identical to my last year! Which is probably why I have such a collection now... xx
DeleteI love the little Yankee scented candles!! My sister and I spent about 20 minutes sniffing them all at a store before we selected a few to buy. I love the peppermint one.

You should definitely try Muji Candles (if you didn't yet) the "Mandarin & Cinnamon" and the "Berry Tart" one are my favorites. I love the Body shop to, there "Exotic" home fragrance and the "Vanilla & Tonka Beans" are amazing.
