Vera Cruz Vanilla World is strong, the other two had no throw at all.I would recommend their scentstories and can spray fresheners when they have a sale.They are too high priced and their spray cans are small as a computer mouse.

I am reviewing mango peach salsa in the tart. I am using a 25 watt electric tart burner, I really love this scent. Wish I had bought more than one. In my opion the throw is really good.

I have always been a fan of Yankee Candles! I'm really into the fresh, musky scents...which they have a lot of. They are on the expensive side, but they have big sales twice yearly where some scents are half price. My favorites that I would buy again are:
Pumpkin Pie-My absolute fall favorite! I don't even like Pumpkin, but this candle just reminds me of everything fall! It smells great. Very relaxing and comforting, without being OVERLY foody.
Autumn Woods-This came out last fall and it is SO very fresh! I love it! It's kind of musky/woody like a fall day with a small bit of floral notes.
Cottage Breeze-This is my favorite musky/fresh scent! It's clean without smelling like salty, beach water.
Beach Walk-smells really clean, less salty than "ocean water", and no suntan smell. Very nice!
Sage & Citrus is a great anytime scent.
I am looking forward to trying "Amber Glow" and "Evening Air".

good selection
|
|
Cons:
|
black smoke, fake smell

Rose scent smels fake, another candle that emits black smoke.
***********
As a gift, I was grateful, however the "rose" scent was choking at times and burned black smoke. I also received a soy candle which I love

The new fall scent Orchard Pear is awesome!!! VERY fruity, i can smell it in the next room! This is one yankee candle scent i will definatley buy again!
*******************
Update 10/9/08 forgot to rate the Vineyard scent. It's really strong and i can smell it in the next room!
**********************
I was so excited when i discovered Yankee Candle had a lily of the valley scent. But i was VERY disappointed, i could hardly smell it. Wasn't worth the price i paid!
***update***
i'm updating my rating for yankee. i was a bit harsh with the rating! but my previous statement about lily of the valley candle scent is still true. Yankee does have some wonderful scents, and they recently brougt back "returning favorites"! I ordered Sugared plums and Patchouli. I also discovered they have some scents availible in 2 wick jars which is great! they also have a all natural "Beanswax" candle line. Once i recieve my order and burn the Sugared Plums and Patchouli i will post my scent review!
***UPDATE***
Sugared Plums is a realy nice, sweet, fruity smell! Not too overpowering, i can smell it a bit in the next room. Burns PERFECTLY with a Illumina Lid! I recommend it if you want a fruity smell that's not too strong, but not that light either. It's just right!
Patchouli: awesome! nice and strong! If you like Patchouli you will love this candle!
