Candles candles candles!

It is safe to say that I have an unhealthy obsession with candles. And unfortunately it is not the cheapest of hobbies! After buying all different kinds, from all different price ranges, I have come to the conclusion that it is worth spending that little bit more to get the nicer fragranced, longer lasting, better quality candles.

The candles I am trying at the moment :
True Grace - Jasmine Tea - £25
Jo Malone - Pomegranate Noir - £22
Yankee Candle - Cranberry Ice - was £16.99 now £8.99

Yankee Candle Tarts - were £1.49 each, now 45p

Silver Birch

Red Apple Wreath 

Christmas Cookie 

Bay Leaf Wreath

Firstly my Jo Malone, it really is beautiful. It was a gift from my best friend Steph, for  Christmas. I don't use it that often as it is quite a small one but when I do, it does tend to last a while. Perfect for a relaxing bath! I am also in love with how Jo Malone present their products and wrap them up. To me that can sometimes be as important as the products themselves. Buying premium products, you expect the quality and service that comes with the price tag and I think this is perfectly executed in the gorgeous way my candle was wrapped. In celefane with a small ribbon bow, along side a beautiful box of long black matches and information cards all packed beautifully in the classic Jo Malone box in a gift bag. I will definitely be heading to the Jo Malone shop in York soon!

My True Grace candle was a gift from my boyfriend for my birthday. Although these candles are £25 I feel like they are worth every penny. Such intense luxurious scents.

I have had mine since October and has literally just run out tonight, although I don't have it lit every day I really do feel that they have a long life. The jars are really beautiful as well so I think now it has run out I will be using it to put my Yankee Candle Tarts in!

Finally my Yankee Candle bargains!! After visiting the designer outlet in York today I decided to take a look at their little store. They had all the Christmas stock reduced to half price and 3 for 2 so I got one jar and my mum got the other two. I also decided to get a couple of the little tarts to test out some different scents as I have heard a lot about them but never used Yankee Candles before.

So far medium jar in Cranberry Ice is going down a treat. As the little ones are christmas scents they were reduced down to 45p!! I may have to save these for Christmas this year as I can imagine them setting a lovely decorating the tree vibe!! (I am getting excited already and it's only just put the tree away like 2 weeks ago!) I was also persuaded (very easily) by the cashier to try the room sprays. For £1 each I am pretty happy with them as well.
