Favorite candle(s) and/or candle companies?
I went looking for a candle today and ended up at the Yankee Candle shop. First of all, let me tell you I am a guy, and I do not like most candle scents. The majority of candles smell like some vanilla/fruity thing my mom or grandma would put in their living room. (no offense) Unfortunately, this precluded pretty much every single candle they had at the Yankee Candle store. I was looking for mostly outdoor type scents - like something that smelled like a pine tree forest, etc. They had a few candles there that had piney type adjectives in their names, but none of them really smelled like a pine tree. (Mistletoe was the "most piney")

Anybody know a good place that sells a variety of outdoorsy type candles?

1. I love Yankee Candle, but St. Johnsbury makes some wonderful
scents as well. You might try them.

Don't know the web address. They had a huge fire a couple of years back, but I think they are back up and running.

Nice people, too. Victoria and Todd. Very nice people.

Looks like this is the website:
http://sjperfectscents.com/

It's too bad we don't have smell-o-vision. They have a lot of fragrances I'd like to smell.

3. The St.Johnsbury special is cloves and cinnamon
Absolutely delicious for fall and winter.

I love the Angel Secrets as well, very nice winter scent.
