Apple Cider Candles
My wife and I tried to walk into the entrance of Target tonight. We kept missing.
We walked down the row with all the candles. We spent 15-20 minutes just smelling the different candles.
Name your favorite candle scent.

Freshly baked bread…ahh. The real thing is even better, but you take what you can get.
I really love lavender too.

i like sandalwood, and vanilla.
i mixed a really nice oil perfume together with both, and a little bit of cinnamon and cedar in the background…it’s nice, i don’t know where it is, though. probably in one of my many junk drawers.

Lost my smell-ability in a surgery 1992
Yankee Candle makes a scent called “Christmas Cookie” and one time I accepted a date from one of the big shots at my work, he was a little too old for me but I went anyway, and when he arrived for our date he was all nervous and he had brought me one of those candles and then we went out for our one and only very nice date and every time I burned that candle the scent of it would fill my whole house and it always made me feel at peace.

nothing sugary, or like cake/ice cream scents… i dont like mint, vanilla, or chocolate scented things (only the flavor of food itself)
i like fruity scents. kiwi. strawberry. mango. melon. banana. yummy.
SWEET.
Birthday Cake or possibly Cinnamon Bun
Vanilla. Apple cider is good too. And just plain apple. And sugar cookie isn’t bad.
How do you get so many comments? What’s the secret?

“My wife and I tried to walk into the entrance of Target tonight. We kept missing.”
What the… what’s that supposed to mean!?
Troy
Midsummers Night.
Apple Cinnamon
There used to be a candle co called Our Secret and they made this candle called Woman’s Rescue. i loved the scent so much i bought over 70 of them in different sizes and preserved them in airtight sealed bags in my closet. Since the company vanished, all i do is look at them lovingly through the plastic bags like exotic specimens. It’s a pity really…
Mitch Hedburg!
“Fresh cut Grass” by Yankee. It smells JUST like fresh cut grass! (Go figure, I know)
anything citrusy.
Sugar Cookie
i like the evergreen scent. reminds me of the woods and i feel like i’m walking between the pines.
Honeydew
None. I have allergies, and I tend to be allergic to scented candles.
Yankee Candle Lilac/Lavender or Buttercream…mmmmmmm. Harvest for fall, Holly Berries for Christmas season, Snow angels for post christmas, and strawberry for spring and summer. Baby Powder in the bathroom. (All Yankee Candle, lol)
Vanilla. It gives any room a feeling of wamth when you smell it.
Kiwi and Strawberry or Vanilla
I love black cherry scented candles…also love vanilla creme.
Pumpkin Pie/Spice. YUM!
Cucumber melon
Anything vanilla, pumpkin, or coffee-cented.
the gap company puts out a holiday candle every year… i love it… cant quite describe the scent… just holiday-ish… :0)

There is a local company here called Granny Bee’s Candles. They make one called raindrops. I love it!
this one kind of candle has wax decorations on the top, sort of making it look like what it’s supposed to smell like (sprinkles on “birthday cake” a cherry on “cupcake”, etc.)
Sugar cookie, by far. Best scent ever.
Fresh Linen
Vanilla. My friend thinks thats an old lady scent…but I would go lavendar for that… but I’ll even decide to try something different, smell them all without looking at labels, and end up picking a Vanilla, or one that has vanilla in it
midsummer night.
dingleberry
Coffee scented.. like mocha and such.. snifffff.. hmmm smells soooo good!!
What candle or makerof candles gives a nice strong smell and last long? or at lease when you enter the room you smell it right away. Thats the kind of candle I’m looking for.
Hm…Black Rassberry Vanilla
Waterfall.
I actually had my favorite perfume made into candles. There is this place that mixes up scents (identical to the designer brands for about $50 cheaper) and can add them to just about anything. I had them add it to wax and make candles.
Hypnotic Poison by Christian Dior.
I’m not sure if you know the feeling because you aren’t female, but I searched forever and couldn’t find a scent that smelled like me, until I found this one.

Any type of spice! Pumpkin, apple, cinnamon, and Island Orchard from Pier One especially. I have the best candles in the land burning every night!
RYC:
I’ve been so tired these past few weeks that I don’t even have the drive to comment to everyone.
I usually reply on their site, except for my nosey friends who for some reason go through all of my comments anyways.
I’ve always wondered if you actually had the time to go through all of yours? I’m sure it’s quite redundant.
vanilla
ok, now you post too much. lol.
vanilla. or sugar cookie.
i loveee clean cotton from yankee candles… nothing beats the smell of clean laundry
creme brulla
Do they make a candle that smells like barbecue? That’s what I want.
well i think that one of the most unique smells i have ever come encountered with would have to be the smell of Orgasm…im serious. it has this very spicy smell. please if ever come across it, give it a chance. thanks.
Sandlewood. Got mine at Target just the other day.
There are so many: mulberry, ocean, rain, sensuous, vanilla, pine, melon, black cherry, cinnamon, lavender, sandlewood–depends on one’s mood, or the mood one wants to get into!
MMM…pomegranate, cherry lemonade, and banana nut bread are my favorites
Anything cinnamon-y. Yumm.
banana bread……….
how do all these people know you?
Patchouli…mmmm smells like musky love petals! (I too love Yankee Candle).
I don’t have one.
Baked Apple Pie from Home Interior.
i like peppermints, mulberries, and candy scents. mostly because i usually do not light the candles. just every once in a while i’ll walk by pick them up and smell them and then go on with my wonderful life.
lavender
banana nut bread! yummm!
toilet
I wanted to let you know there’s an explanation of the challenge at my site now. The number you gave me (1a) referenced Joshua 2. When I get to posting on it I will let you know. Thanks for contributing to the challenge and may God bless you 7 fold for your blessing to me.
Florasense Vanilla Pecan!
vanilla
My favorite candle scent is Vanilla, or cinnamon.
mint
I remember there was one called “Chocolate “…after a few minutes…the whole room smelled like a smore…also made me kinda hungry
pink rose petals
Strawberry.
Just ‘cuz it’s the only one I’ve ever smelled.
PartyLite’s Raspberry scent.
I prefer burning incense to lighting candles.
My fav scent would be what me and my friends have affectionately called “come fuck me” incense. It’s more commonly known as Cool Water.
Gosh it’s hard to pick just one, but I’d have to go with PartyLite’s Ocean Blue.
strawberry, vanilla, or lavender… actually, any of the girlie ones, lol
<3amoni
SUGAR COOKIE
I like too many to pick one out and put it at the top of the list.
I like any of the ones that smell clean like Clean Cotton or Ocean Water. I had a great one once, though, that was a swirl of Fresh Cut Grass and Fresh Cut Roses, and it smelled just like my back yard in the summertime. I was sad when that one burned out.
There are so many to choose from and each candle smells different. Overall I would have to say vanilla is my favorite…but there sure are a lot of runners up!
You must really like Target. Not that anything is wrong with Target. Come check out my current entry. There’s a good question even you Dan, need to answer.
Home Interior’s baked apple pie.
Lilac or anything baked goods smelling.
i like anything that doesnt smell like bread or cookie. im not sure they’ve quite got that scent right…
Wait… how did you keep missing the entrance??
My favorite scent is cranberry.
caramel. totally
Probably vanilla. I loved restocking the Yankee candle aisle when I worked at BedBath&Beyond.
Ocean Breeze or Vanilla
*~Christi~*
Apple Cinnamon
French Vanilla (Yankee Candles)
My Favorite is Rose or the Cappucino one i just recently got. makes my whole room smell like COFFEE!
Definitely spiced apple pie
It’s fun looking at everyone’s favorite scents…I guess I will grow in my two “scents” worth…First,TUSCANY, by TRIMMINGS and then PINEAPPLE CRUSH by TYLER CANDLES. I haven’t found any other brands whose scents remain strong to the bottom of the wick!
plain old vanilla
Strawberries and Cream. or Vanilla.
Yankee Candle has one called MidSummer’s Night. It actually smells sort of manly!
hazelnut.
cotton laundry…some thing like that
I am allergic to most scents, and walking down a candle aisle generally starts an asthma attack for me.
the favs here seem to be vanilla, fruity, apple, or cinamon.
i prefer cinnamon, vanilla, or apple something.

Kelly

vanilla bean or chocolate from b&b works

In response to Your question do You update too much? I have never been here before but keep seeing reference to your dominating featured-a spot to which i do not aspire-so i decided to check out how someone sharing life lessons of moment could hold such desired spots. Perhaps You are the Second Coming of which we hear so much. I find instead someone who on a desert island would eat the only piece of fruit without sharing. In kindergarten we learn to share for a reason . . . there are others who deserve recognition–Yes–You update too much!May You grow in the Light.

Strawberry Kiwi … I can’t believe you practically dominate the FC list … you are awesome … 167 comments on scented candles … wow, you are amazing!! I’m lucky if I get 20 or more comments … but, I’m still trying!!
ORIGINAL VANILLA ALL THE WAY!
HOW DO YOU GET ON FEATURED CONTENT?
there is one candle that ny sister made that smells like my favorite kind of energy drink, it is the proverbial bomb
i thought you already posted this question before….
Harvest.

pomegranate
vanilla
Warm Vanilla sugar from bath and body works…
also favorite lotion, bubble bath, etc scent.
Lavender..
Vanilla, and sugar cookie. mmmmmm
The candle I got from my mom for Christmas: Orange Cinnamon Biscotti. mmmm…
My kids say I like the smell of dirt. Crabtree & Evelyn once made a candle that was green and had some woodsy name. I loved it, but they no longer make this scent. All that is left now is a nub. Musk or wood scents for me.
I’m dying to get a candle warmer. I saw one on sale for under $4, but I missed out. I went hunting for them today but they were all $5. Humph. My fav scent would probably be lilac if they make it.
Soy Beads orange vanilla. It’s the best thing I’ve smelled, ever.
Clean Cotton.
I like vanilla and strawberry
Green Apple
Macintosh (smells like apples)
or
Pinapple Cilantro……..AMAZING!
chocolate chip cookies!
Almond is my favourite. It makes me feel happy.
I also like lavender, because it relaxes me
harvest and butterscotch are for sure the best.
fresh baked cookies.
i find it intersting that all these people simply did as you asked, no questions asked. i suppose i would answer as well, if it were not for the fact that i have no real favorite candle scent. is any one odor better than another?
hasta.
Anything that smells good.
Vanilla
I like birthday cake or vanilla
I bought a “cappucino vanilla coffee cake crunch” one. I guess that’s my favorite.
I’m pretty boring. I don’t care for spicy smelling candles. My main two are either vanilla or black cherry. I do have a “manly” smelling candle in one bathroom. I think it’s called “Midnight Obsession”.
vanilla
Vanilla or gingerbread.
Erika
Malice is my favorite scent of candle.
honeydew melon
I would have to say either Cucumber Melon or Warm Vanilla Sugar.

All candles smell delectable.
