What is your favorite candle scent?

Survey says?

[Flaxbee]

1. nothing too floral or fruity .. I like more subdued scents,

like 'clean linen' or there is a lemon sage one that I've really liked before. Actually, so long as there isn't this strong undertone of chemical-y perfume, I'm pretty OK with most scents.

But I can't stand country-kitchen-ish "apple pie" kinds of scents. Get away from me with the kitsch.

2. Yankee Candle had one a couple of years ago called "Good Morning".

It's my all-time favorite. Maybe they'll reissue it sometime.

11. What did it smell like?

I am making homemade soy candles and am trying figure out what scents to use.

[hippywife]

12. I don't use the scented candles but

I love the goat's milk soap I buy that's scented with patchouli. I would probably buy candles scented that way.

:hi:

20. I more or less don't like anything that smells like food. nt

[one_voice]

3. I like...

anything that's clean/outdoorsie...not pine though.

And Sandalwood.

4. Yankee candle macintosh apple

5. Yankee candle macintosh apple-honestly...WHAT is with the double posts?!!??

I only pushed the button once, this happens to me all the time, I don't get it

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

6. None of them. Scented candles make me want to hurl.

The only ones I can stand are the piney Christmas ones. The rest of them -- :puke: Especially the "vanilla" or other icky-sweet, fake-food kind of stench.

7. Vanilla or ginseng.

It's hard to find the ginseng candles.

8. Votive candles...

[Inspired]

26. I love orange clove. Let me know if you find it.

[Broken_Hero]

10. Vanilla,

but I'm really digging the pineapple ones my wife picked up a week or so back.

[Lucian]

13. Pumpkin from Bath and Body Works.

The essence of fall...

[From The Ashes]

14. Vanilla.

like the linen scented ones too.

[Oceansaway]

15. Drakkar Noir.....

by Marie's Candles & More...(somewhere in TX)

[amyrose2712]

24. I was wondering how that would smell

in a candle. Not sure if I still like it. Had an ex that used to drown in it.

16. Deep dark black cherry.....

Tikki

[amyrose2712]

17. I just made one of those..

smells quite yummmy. Thanks

[Phentex]

18. Cucumber melon...

I don't know who ever thought of mixing the two, but I like it!

[IcyPeas]

19. Patchouli from Pier I . . . . (and I'm not even a hippie)

[Arkansas Granny]

30. I love patchouli, although most people telll me they think it smells like dirt.

I'll have to get to Pier One and check those out. It's hard to find a good patchouli candle anymore.

[AsahinaKimi]

21. Green tea

and I love Coconut, and Vanilla.

[azmouse]

22. Chocolate cupcake from Yankee candle.

:9

[foxfeet]

23. Sandalwood or cedar.

Vetiver is good, if you can find it. Bayberry for the Winter Solstice.

[AngryOldDem]

25. Yankee Candle's Buttercream.

Honest to God, it smells exactly like buttercream frosting, to the point where you have to remind yourself that it's wax.

Yankee Candle has a lot of amazing fragrances.

[TommyO]

27. Leather

It's from a small, meaning one person, shop called Raw Candles in Chicago, and he is a true craftsman.

28. Beer fart. It's so different from all the other scents.

[zabet]

29. Black Pepper.....Trapp Candles

From the website: "Dark and aromatic, full of romance and intrigue. Notes of black peppercorn, anise and balsam wood lend to its unique character."

http://www.trappcandles.com/portfolio.aspx

Nobody yet has identified the scent by smell alone.....unlike any scented candle I have ever purchased. A small specialty shop in a town near me carries them is how I found them....I have some respiratory allergies....and this is one that does not bother me at ALL.

[Sanity Claws]

31. Lavender

I love the floral scents.

[Mad_Dem_X]

32. My favorite is roses, but

Yankee Candle has a lot of very good scents. A couple of the ones I have now are Fresh Water and Island Getaway.

[LaydeeBug]

33. Storm Watch. nt

[sammytko]

34. Lavender scent from Carmen's Candles

no longer in business I think. I started using a Scentsy flameless candle warmer and love their Peligro scent. Thats Danger in Spanish. Its from their line made for men. I love the smell of men's cologne, so I love this one.
