Lighten the Mood with Yankee Candle

Remember when working full time meant being at work from 9 to 5, Monday through Friday? Evenings and weekends meant free time for you, your home, and your family. In this 24-7 world it seems that for many of us the lines between work life and family life have blurred. If we aren't at work, we are connected to it by email, fax, and phone. Even children have schedules with weekend and evening classes or sporting events! Whether juggling work commitments or trying to keep the family schedule coordinated, you need a way to find down time. Lighting your favorite Yankee Candle is a guilty pleasure you shouldn't feel guilty about. Our scents have a way of providing the comfort and relaxation that you need in your crazy busy world. And, your household benefits as well! So while you are multi-tasking, taking on new roles, and shuffling responsibilities, keep a Yankee Candle glowing nearby. In this high-tech world it's nice to know that a simple candle can not only light the room, but lighten life's sometimes heavy load.

Yankee Candle Fresh Mint - Welcome Home Old Friend!

There are some candle fragrances that are slow burners, figuratively speaking. They are those scents that quietly find their niche. They aren't flashy or provocative and they don't follow a fad. Because they keep a low profile, they can sometimes be overlooked and even be left abandoned in favor of newer candle scents. But their spot-on true-to-life nature earns them a spot in the hearts of their ardent fans. Yankee Candle's Fresh Mint is one such fragrance. The aroma is that of garden mint, not sweet candy peppermint. Think freshly snipped mint leaves you might infuse into iced tea or use as garnish on a dessert tray. It is invigorating one moment and provides a calming respite the next. Yet even with all of these accolades, we turned away from Fresh Mint and stopped making it; until a passionate group of supporters took up the Fresh Mint cause and began to lobby for its return. We listened, we smelled, and we understood. With one sniff you can see that Fresh Mint will never disappoint - it will always provide you with a refreshingly clean and cool, peppery zing of green mint leaves fresh from the garden! Welcome home, Fresh Mint!
