Nostalgia and Yankee Candle

Of all the senses, the sense of smell is probably one of the best to take us back in time. One reason Yankee Candle is so popular is the nostalgia our guests experience when they smell certain of our candle fragrances. For me, I love anything citrus, as it reminds me of being a child at Christmas, and finding that orange in the toe of my stocking. I asked some other Yankee Candle associates what their favorite fragrance was, and why. Here are a few of their answers:

Midsummers Night-it reminds me of the fragrance my first boyfriend wore. Marion S.

Baby Powder- it is the fragrance of the candle Yankee Candle gave me when my daughter, Aurora, was born. James B.

Anything Vanilla-it reminds me of my mom baking when I would come home from school. Lucille J.

Dune Grass-it reminds me of Plum Island, Ma. Laurie L.

What is your favorite fragrance, and why? Go visit your local Yankee Candle, find that candle, and be taken back in time.......
