About Me
Hi, I'm Carolyn and I've worked at the Yankee Candle headquarters for nearly (gulp) 20 years! I'm on the fragrance committee, so I get to smell candles for a living - lucky me :) I work in the retail office and get to visit our stores from coast-to-coast. My husband, daughter, and I live 11 minutes from the world's BIGGEST candle store - the "Scenter" of New England - the Yankee Candle Flagship store in S. Deerfield MA!
I have all the inside scoop about candles and fragrance and LOVE to share my tips of the trade.
I had no idea you had been with YC for so long. You must have a lot of scentimental memories!
ReplyDeleteMary, since reading your comment, I've been waxing philosophical about my years here. The time has flown by wick-ed quickly and sometimes I need to scenter myself in reality!Thanks for having pun with me!
ReplyDeleteI have two Mixology scents I just love that I made.
ReplyDelete"Bad Romance" - Evening Air and Midnight Jasmine
"Midsummer Storm" - Midsummer Night and Storm Watch
Everyone loves the scent when they come into my house.
I love the sounds of Midsummer Storm!
ReplyDeleteHi Carolyn!
ReplyDeleteMy name is Katie. You may have seen me post on the YC site on FB. Im a HUGE YC fan, and my particular type of candle collecting is the Swirl candles :)
I was wondering if you could help me out with some stuff. I have two questions for you:
1. I just posted the question on the YC site, but incase you don't see it, do you know what the scents are @ the Deerfield store to make the WaxWorks jar candles? Im going on July, and I kinda want to have an idea of the scents so I can decide on how to layer the candle.
2. Is it possible to go in to the factory next door? (where the candles are made) or even for a tour? Id LOVE to go, but no one can give me an answer
If you could help me out, that would be great! Thanks Carolyn! tty soon!
