If you’re a candle lover, you are almost certainly familiar with one of the most iconic candle brands ever — The Yankee Candle Company.
After 50 years in the business, they’re “re-lighting” the brand with a modernized design, new and improved wax blend (in the iconic large jar), and a deeper emphasis on the emotional power of fragrance.
Yankee Candle’s new enhancements include the following highlights:
- More fragrance — Long-lasting fragrance and consistency from first to last burn.
- Premium plant-based wax blend — Upgraded wax formulation for an improved burn and fragrance throw.
- Improved burn — Engineered to reduce soot and tunneling for a consistent burn.
- Modernized design — Fragrance-first visuals and cohesive design across all forms for a more unified look.
