I can't find a good brand that I really like. I think the Glade ones are ok since they are reasonable on price. I also like Yankee, but I am not sold that they are as great as some people think they are. What are some good brands to look for that I can buy in a local store and not online?

Diptyque is the best. But they are very expensive.

Maybe take a look at their line to get some ideas, then reproduce some of those types more affordably.

Why is Diptyque the best? Do they burn longer than other candles or are the scents stronger? Do they have their own site online?

I don't know what brand, but my favorite scent is anything with spice. Pumpkin pie, Apple pie etc.... I love going into the stores and smelling all the different scents.

Oh pumpkin spice. I can smell it now. 'Tis the season. If you love pumpkin, and I guess you do, have you tried the pumpkin spice Coffemate creamer or Country Crock spread? Delicious!

Why even bother to discuss which candle brand is the best? They are all the same if you ask me. They all burn like the rest of them candles. If you want a candle with a longer life then go buy a massive thick candle.

Some may use artificial scents. Some may use more or less of various scents. Some may use combinations of scents that are more appealing or spiritually significant. Obviously, you need to learn more about candles...

I am the owner of CJ's Candle Corner. I started this business because I was so tired of spending good money for bad candles! I used to buy Yankee. I had a house full of them. They are way too expensive and not very strong. My candles are REALLY triple scented. We put the maximum fragrance oil that the wax can hold in our candles. Our candles are very affordable. Give us a try. Visit our webstore. You'll even get a free gift for ordering from us!

I am trying to find a specific brand of candle that was given to me as a gift several years ago. I cannot for the life of me remember who makes them. It was a scented jar, large, the jar was a marbled looking decorative. It came in a blue silk limed box. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I know they run on the high end $$ about 45 or more.
