favorite candle scents

I like lilac and hyacinth in the sprintime
Cinnamon and pine are my favs in the winter.

I don't light candles much in the summer since I usually have fans blowing in every room!!

hugs,train

Due to my severe allergies and the two DS allergies & asthma, candle burning is not allowed in our home.

Poor DD loves candles!! She says that when she gets married and moves out, she'll burn candles like crazy in her house unless we are scheduled to visit.

I love candles. Right now Im into burning the candle tarts since I can keep them up out of the way so that my DD doesnt get to them.


We have honeysuckle bushes in our backyard and they smell terrific, so Im buying some honeysuckle tart from OSI.

My other favs are Lilac, coffee, green apple, honeydew......I could go on and on.....

Right now I have Cherry Lemonade. I have the warmers so I don't have a flame. But I also love pumpin pie in the winter and Christmas Eve for the holidays. I don't like to strong a smell.

Cindy I am like you adn have allergies so any candle that is used in our home has to be a fruity scent. Any florals or heavy perfume and I am ill!!

Hugs Debbie

I love sandalwood or patchouli scented candles, really anything herbal. I also love cinnamon or pumpkin scented in the winter. I don't like flowery scents or anything artificially scented or chemical smelling.

Well my mother likes sandalwood and I've liked a couple of brands that she's had, but not all. I like it when it's more perfumey or sweet smelling.

My favorites are usually anything with Spring, Rain, Grass, Storm, etc. in their names. I also like some with the word Linen in the names.
