jar candles at homebase only £3.29 - yankee style

hayleysb

lots of 20oz jar candles at homebase down to £3.29 each.

i had one last year and it lasted ages and smells lovely - better than yankee in my opinion.

postage is £5.95 :eek: but i ordered 4 to make it worth while, they are available in store too.

Funny, I bought a couple of these and they smell like nothing, no detectable scent at all really while burning. I was so disappointed with them, and I love Yankee candles. Mine are the Lavender and the Pomegranate ones.

I'm a big fan of Yankee too, but chanced one of these last week, was going to post but agree with pp they smell gorgeous but when you burn them, they have no scent.
I have the White one, you get what you pay for.
For the quality these are overpriced.

i had the pomegranite too and it made the whole room smell lovely - hoping the new ones are as good then! maybe they are not all fragranced the same and i got one with a bit more in?

The one I bought in the last sale I only managed to burn about half the candle as the wick went funny - not the strongest smelling candle in the world either. I would probably pick another one up if they were on offer at the time I was having a look around the shop anyway but I wouldn't pay postage for them.

Yes they are so much cheaper than an equivalent size Yankee Candle but there is a reason for this - they aren't anywhere near as good.

i got one too last week and it had no smell and didnt burn even. my hubby told me not to get it. cheep skate i am thought it maybe nice. bring on the yankie candles.:j

Nope, sorry, but there are loads of cheap candles about at this price. Yankee is Yankee - they smell lovely and last for ages - and that is why people go mad for them, even if they are expensive. You only get what you pay for with scented candles.

I bought one of these last year and it was lovely - in fact we still are burning it at the moment. I wanted another so I will go and look. We got pomegranate last year and it smells divine!
