Has anyone used these...

Been looking around at Yankee candles and have come across some Halloween ones, trick or treat, pumpkin patch, spiders web.

Wondering has anyone smelt these as the local shops around here don't have them. And don't want to order if not nice

I've ordered a couple of samplers of a couple of them after doing some on-line shopping yesterday, but I've not actually seen them in-stores yet.

I'm hoping they'll be nice, looking forward to burning them in our house over the Halloween weekend

I'm heading there this afternoon, so I can "smell" them for you if you want. of course, scent is very objective, so don't kill me if I steer you wrong!

hiya i have them all lol

spiders web is quite strong its pichouli or however you spell it
trick or treat is lovely and sweet

 

[princess jackson]

Thanks everyone. However what is Pichouli

 

[princess jackson]

The general ones I like, anything with cinnamon.
Christmas cookie, vanilla cupcake, Christmas eve, fruit salad, tutti fruiti.

So Anna does the halloween ones fit into my senses lol

However what is Pichouli

The most overpowering cloying disgusting scent ever made! Highly associated with hippies. Go into a health food store and you are sure to find a couple people wearing it. And they aren't hard to find. Follow the stench! Seriously, I can't breathe with that stuff in the air....

No insult to hippies/crunchers, I just live near a lot of them and while most of them are very nice people, the pichouli has GOT TO GO!!!

Thanks for the heads up,

We've got them all in our shop, the trick or treat one is quite sweet, I would say that you would like Pumpkin Patch which is a more spicy scent, witches brew is pichulli I don't like it at all, however it has sold well!

 

[Tinks1984]

Ah lovely, Witches Brew is the one I've ordered Along with Cider Web, which I'm hoping will be nice

I love Troik or Treat swirl - which is CandyCorn and Buttercream, we have that in a big jar, bought smaller ones of Boo!, Cider-Web and CandyCorn.

As much as I was excited to have a candle named after my cat, Booo is jsut so strong and overpowering. Cider-Web is quite nice and CandyCorn is OK. But Tirck or Treat is definitely the best of the lot for us, Jack even says it's his favourite Yankee Candle ever!

I'm not a patchouli fan so havn't smelled that one.

Well I decided to pop to my local candle shop, did not like witches brew. But then could not decide so got a couple of tarts, candy corn, then got a couple of others, be thankful, welcome christmas and creamy caramel.
