Shipping Disasters
My store never has inventory on the good stuff so I decided to order online. What a mistake. I received the box and it was clearly obvious before I opened it that the glass was shattered. The jar was thrown in the box with a strip of paper. Do better Target.

Not worth the money
This use to be the go to candle. I hadn't ordered one in years. I won't order any more. No scent what so ever unless your nose is right above it. KROGER and $General carry much stronger scented candles for half the price. Very disappointing. Was so excited to be getting one after all these years. What a let down.

Hello! We’re sorry to hear you’re not fully satisfied with the experience, as we take great pride in using as much fragrance oil as possible to create scents that are true-to-life and designed to burn beautifully from the first use to the last. Please note that some fragrances are naturally stronger than others—similar to a bouquet where certain flowers stand out more. Individual scent perception can also vary, and environmental factors like room size, airflow, and temperature may affect how strongly a fragrance is experienced. To get the best performance of your candle, we recommend following the standard burn cycle: - Burn for 4 hours the first time (industry recommendation). - At the 4-hour mark, extinguish the candle, allow it to cool, and trim the wick before relighting. - Within this first cycle, the wax should fully pool across the surface, though in some environments this may happen sooner (30–60 minutes). If you follow the steps above and still experience issues with weak or not strong enough fragrance, please reach out to us via official Yankee Candle "Contact Us" or through Live Chat starting your complaint, so we will be happy to help. We’re available Mon.-Fri. 9am – 8pm Eastern Time. Thank you! Yankee Candle® Consumer Care

Hello, we are truly sorry to hear that your Sugared Cinnamon Apple Original Large Jar Candle didn’t meet your expectations. Our goal is always to provide rich, long-lasting fragrances, and we understand how disappointing it can be when a candle doesn’t deliver the scent experience you were hoping for. Fragrance strength can sometimes be influenced by factors like room size, ventilation, or the duration of each burn. To help your candle achieve its full scent potential, we recommend allowing it to burn for at least 2–3 hours at a time, ensuring the wax melts evenly across the surface. Additionally, trimming the wick to ¼ inch before each burn can help maintain an optimal flame and fragrance release. For the best performance, we suggest following the standard burn cycle: On the first burn, allow the candle to burn for up to 4 hours (industry recommendation). After 4 hours, extinguish the candle, let it cool, and trim the wick before relighting. During this initial burn, the wax should fully pool across the surface, though in some settings this may occur sooner, typically within 30–60 minutes. If you need our help, please contact our Consumer Care team, or you can also check at the bottom of our official website under customer service to contact us via email. We are looking forward to hearing from you! Thank you! Yankee Candle Consumer Care

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's okay, first time buying this scent, was hoping for a stonger vanilla scent, but if your looking for a more subtle vanilla, buy it

Shipping was horrible
Love yankee candle and loved this fragrance .. however some people at Target need to learn how to pack a candle that is in a glass container and not with one single piece of brown paper. Package arrived. You could tell it was re-taped when I opened it. I ended up with a piece of glass in my hand and when I picked up the candle which no longer had the glass around it because someone opened up the box thought they took all the broken glass out and threw the candle back in the box and continued to ship it. Took it to the store for return show showed them how it came to get a refund, but I’m very hesitant to order something off at target that’s fragile to be mailed.

Hello, We’re so glad to hear you loved the fragrance, that means a lot to us. We’re truly disappointed to learn how your candle arrived; that’s definitely not how a Yankee Candle should be received. While the shipping and packaging are handled directly by Target, your feedback is important and helps ensure that experiences like this are addressed. We hope this doesn’t deter you from enjoying your favorite Yankee Candle fragrances in the future, there’s nothing better than lighting one safely at home and letting that scent fill the room.

Not like they used to be
I really hate doing this because I don't like leaving bad reviews but the past couple of years the Yankee candles do not smell strong whatsoever I can have them lit all day leave the house for 20 minutes and come back and I still don't smell the fresh smell that I used to so many years ago so I don't know if I'm getting the ends of every batch or what but they just don't smell strong whatsoever you can't even tell that they're lit of the other than seeing the flash of the candle glowing. Again I hated to have to write that kind of review but I only like to tell the truth and although I'll probably keep ordering them in hopes that one of them down the road will come smelling good but I think I might have to stop buying them for a little while and see if anything changes 6 months from now because I can't be the only one that's complaining. They used to be so strong and so beautiful to smell and now you can't even tell even when you blow them out that was when they was the strongest but you can't even tell that it was lit anymore. They just don't have any aroma to them a very very slight aroma but that's only when you blow it out and then it goes away in 3 minutes and again it's not strong at all I'm sorry!

Fragance at first seemed dull and uninviting, but after I lit the candle I very much enjoyed the Mystic Tarot scent.

I remember Yankee Candle having room filling scent. Not this one. At all. Way too expensive to provide little to no scent. Will never buy this one again.

Hello, thank you for sharing your feedback with us and for letting us know about your experience with our Macintosh Original Large Jar Candle. We’re truly sorry that the fragrance did not deliver the strong, room-filling scent you expected. Macintosh has been one of our most iconic and loved fragrances for decades, celebrated for its crisp, authentic apple aroma that reminds many of freshly picked fruit from the orchard. We completely understand how disappointing it can be when a favorite scent doesn’t perform as you remember, especially given the premium nature of our candles. There are several factors that can affect a candle’s fragrance throw, such as room size, airflow, and burn conditions, but we also take all reports of reduced scent performance seriously. Our fragrance and quality assurance teams continually review customer feedback to ensure that each candle meets the high standards Yankee Candle is known for. Your comments will be shared directly with them as part of that process. We’d love the chance to make this right and learn more about your experience. If you need our help, please contact our Consumer Care team, or you can also check at the bottom of our official website under customer service to contact us via email. We are looking forward to hearing from you! Thank you! Yankee Candle Consumer Care
