What Does Summer Smell Like?
Summer smells like lemon and lime, summer-flowering lilies and warm scents that remind us of the sun’s rays.
Yankee Candle’s scene-setting is ever more elaborate. Following on from the spring collection, the range layers us food and floral notes, adding woodsy details here and there.
The Garden Hideaway summer candle releases reach a new level with little scent details tying the collection together while they lead us around a secret garden.
5 new Yankee Candles heat up spring’s fruit-and-floral profile for summer. Summer-ripening fruits smell just right. Warming amber and sandalwood scents bring the enchanted garden in to the afternoon sun, and richer flower scents rise up around us.
Water Garden
Yankee Candle Water Garden shares those fresh notes of waterside air with favourite scents like Hibiscus Water. But the flowers we can smell remind us that we’re closer to home. This isn’t the exotic scent of the tropics, it’s the simple beauty of a hot summer afternoon.
Pink lily and lily-of-the-valley remind us that we’re in a beautiful floral garden, with a clever addition… Lotus flowers link the flowers with the water feature that scents the air.
Birch bark feeds into the enchanted woodland atmosphere that the Garden Hideaway summer collection works so hard to create. Then driftwood base notes remind us that we’re by the water.
Garden Picnic
Fresh food, warming scents and flowers mix in Yankee Candle Afternoon Picnic. Peach, nectarine and apricot stand out at first as you light this fruit scented candle. Yellow iris and waterlily are the floral scents that drift across the garden.
But the Yankee Candle Garden Hideaway summer releases also find a way to bring heat to those garden scents. Warming amber, musk and sandalwood give Garden Picnic the detail it needs to set the scene completely.
Calamansi Cocktail
Calamansi Cocktail has clear citrus notes but it’s at the other end of the spectrum from Homemade Herb Lemonade’s sharp fizz.
This is a warm scent that will make you think of late afternoon sunshine. Kumquat softens the sharp notes of grapefruit and mandarin for a spring candle scent that’s refreshing but not too bitter.
Sweet Honeycomb
Honeycomb is a gorgeous scent – the Garden Hideaway version layers up that sweet aroma to create something unique. It’s perfect if you like Yankee Candle vanilla fragrances, combining sweet vanilla with milk and the richness of caramel.
Note of macadamia and cashew offset the sugary tones, and along with exotic sandalwood they make up a woodsy, nature-themed profile.
Lime and Coriander
Yankee Candle Lime and Coriander candles bring the warmth of herbs and spices to the sharpness of lime. If you like Yankee Candle Vanilla Lime jars then it could be a new way to enjoy your favourite citrus scent.
Berry rounds out the sweeter side, while the herby coriander notes are joined by sandalwood for depth that takes it in a different direction.
Lily-of-the-valley adds a floral note that’ll let you pretend you’re sipping a cocktail in a beautiful kitchen garden.
What Are the Best New Yankee Candles for Summer?
The best scented candles for summer layer up summer flowers and fruits with the little details you don’t even notice. You might think of lemon and lime, but the scent of the trees’ bark heating up in the sun?
It makes all the difference, and takes you straight into the scene. Yankee Candle Garden Hideaway summer candles work hard to recreate moments – the true essence of summer.
One scent stands out, Water Garden. The driftwood and water lily scents are a clever detail that immediately unlock the door to a magical place.
