'NEW' fragrances from Yankee Candles - Lovely Kiku and Champaca Blossom!

 



Above Lovely Kiku and Champaca Blossom tealights, £6.75
Votive, approx £8.99

Yes, I know it's another candle post, what can I say, I have a problem!!! I definitely had to let you know about these pretty new spring fragrances from Yankee Candles and believe me, they smell as pretty as they look.

Firstly the lavender coloured Lovely Kiku, this has a lovely warm vanilla floral aroma with hints of cherry blossom, quite perfumed but not too overwhelming. I love to put it in the pretty mauve flower votive above, they work really well together. I bought these two items at the same time but have since been unable to find any details on the tealight holder so will have to investigate further. I tend to burn this one in my lounge at the end of the day, it gives it a warm floral essence that reminds me of brighter weather to come.

If you prefer something a little more delicate then Champaca Blossom would be a better choice. It has a lovely fresh smelling aroma that reminds me a little of water melons with a touch of spring blossom thrown in to make it even more appealing. I've been burning this one in my kitchen/family room where I spend best part of my time when blogging, it really gives out a lovely fresh springlike essence, perfect inspiration while working.

It's really difficult to say which one I prefer, it definitely depends on what sort of mood I'm in, hence I had to buy both! Yankee Candles have also released a further three fragrances in this range, Pink Hibiscus, Under the Palms and Midnight Oasis so it's worth checking them out here, there seems to be a scent to suite just about everyone!


A hint of fruity fragrances to come!

These fruity fragrances above are just the beginning of this years new releases from Yankee Candles. They've also released a special Mother's Day series and for Easter White Chocolate Bunnies and Bunny Cake along with some Easter inspired tealight holders which you can check out here, a combination of candles, chocolate and bunnies, what's not to love!!! I suggest you keep an eye out for these if you're as mad about candles as I am, I've a feeling they will sell out fast.

What is your favourite Yankee Candle fragrance?

  3. The Champaca ones seem to be delicate and great! I love the look of the Kikus, but maybe their scent is a bit strong, isn't it?

    1. Yes, I think you're right, I tend to burn the Champaca more then the Kiku for that very reason. They are both very pretty though. x
