A November Yankee Candle Combo

After what was apparently the warmest halloween on record in the UK, its finally started to get colder. What with that, the nights drawing in and the long lead up to christmas about to begin, it is almost certainly candle season. I tend to go for yankee candles, firstly because they are priced within reason (at least compared to most other popular scented candles) and secondly because they have just about every scent and size of candle anyone could ever want. I also like to burn a couple of these candles at once in order to mix the scents (and create even more pretty flickering lights). I often do this with a couple of the floral scents- Midnight Jasmine and True Rose at the moment. But my very favourite combo is Fluffy Towels (a ‘fresh’ scent, basically it smells like washing powder but in a warm, cozy, comforting kind of way) and Fireside Treats (a sweet marshmallowy smell but one that has a hint of masculinity to it and is a more complex scent than many other sweet ones). As a combination this seems appropriate to this time of year- you toast marshmallows on bonfire night, right? Also, its sweet but not as sweet as the Christmas Cookie type candles that many people think are too sickly.

I'd love to know what your favourite scented candles are for this time of year, see you Thursday!
