How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings, help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyses reviews to verify trustworthiness.

3.0 out of 5 starsNot as great as expected
Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 6 February 2023
Not as great as expected. It smells a bit too sweet and artificial. And probably the biggest issue issue with these candles is that the last 1/4 of it always smells off and kind of unpleasant. I wouldn't recommend this scent if u looking for something authentic.

Pleasant enough smell, if you like cinnamon, I was expecting something a bit more complex. Burns well. Worth the money.

4.0 out of 5 stars Home Sweet Home Large Jar
Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 8 October 2022
Colour Name: MaroonStyle Name: large jar candleVerified Purchase
I ordered Home Sweet Home Large Jar. this is very mixed. When I opened the jar, it was obvious that this was not a sweet smell at all. It was a sickly spicy over powering smell. I lit the wick and put the jar on the shelf, all i could smell was that awful spicy aroma. Then an hour passed, I left the room, come back and that spicy smell was gone, instead it had a really warming and cosy aroma like I wanted. I guess it might have been the way the wax hardened or something when made because although i got the odd whiff of that spicy smell, its now mainly this beautiful warming aroma that is very relaxing.

5.0 out of 5 stars You can't beat a Yankee Candle for actually creating a smell! (& great gift idea)
Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 9 November 2018
Colour Name: Spiced OrangeStyle Name: large jar candleVerified Purchase
SELLER:
On time / well packaged.
Paid £20.91 + Prime next day delivery.

UN-BOXING THE PRODUCT:
Yankee candles are fully boxed so all recyclable and the 'protective' boxing design inside is genius too! Good job Yankee!

USING:
Well aside stating the obvious; lid off light it! The smell is AMAZING, it simply envelopes your home with the fragrance and everyone comments on how nice your house smells! I have not found any that overpower and like most things you get used to the fragrance, but when you leave the room and come back you'll notice it again. It also gives a nice subtle sent in the room if you simply leave the lid off without lighting it. I'd suggest when at the shops, smell some, so you know which you like before buying. (Vanilla cupcake for example, I thought I'd love, but sadly no!) Spiced Orange does indeed smell like orange and warming spices ... like my mums Tea Loaf (made with marmalade! NOM!)

VALUE FOR MONEY:
Yes, I admit they are not cheap, but unlike some cheaper candles that don't smell much, if at all, and burn badly (leaving wobbly wave like wax and lots of black smoke) so you don't even get the full candle use anyway. Yankee are reliable and therefore better VFM in the long run. If you burn well, they last well. I purchased this same candle a year ago and I am now just replacing it, it burned throughout Christmas & New Year 2017 and has been out since mid October this year and has just finished. So while it doesn't last a full year as such, the fragrance dictates use in the Autumn / over Christmas / Early Spring time.

ADVICE:
On first burn always burn for several hours, you will then melt right to the edges and get the full candle use right to the very bottom, if you put it on for short periods, you run out of enough wick to melt the wax and end up creating a tunnel to the bottom! Which means bad VFM! Wipe around the neck of the bottle with a piece of kitchen roll to remove the black soot and keep it looking nice right to the very end!
 
ADDITIONAL HELPFUL PURCHASES:
Wick trimmer - this really does help stop a lot of that puffy sooty smoke coming off
Lllumalid - stops drafts flickering the flame to give less smoke & looks nice too!
(I have popped a picture on with these to show you what they look like)

If you like this fragrance, I also like, so you might too; Red Apple Wreath (cinnamon apple pie) and Black Cherry (just awesome!)

CONCLUSSION:
A great gift to give. Smells lovely. Burns well and looks good. The glass jar and lid are very robust as well.

What you expect from Yankee, give off a bit too much smoke, the scent reminds me of that orange medicine you'd be forced to take as a child, but somehow it isn't terrible!
