Hi everyone,

I love candles and have spent a small fortune on different brands such as Yankee etc.

In the past I have used Swan Creek candles, they are fantastic, their fragrance throw is amazing but unfortunately they are quite hard to get here in the UK, the one shop that do sell large jars have put their postal prices up to £7.90 for 1 jar which I think is excessive.

Was just wondering if anyone knew of any really good candles that have a very strong scent throw? I dont like using normal air freshners or plug ins as they smell to artificial to me.
Any ideas?

Diptyque ones are gorgeous. Pricey but worth it.

Hi, thanks for reply. Wow they are expensive and they look rather small?

I like the candles that are in the big jars and that have lots of scents to choose from, I typically like the bakery scents ;-) x

The Swan Creek candles can fragrance your whole house with just 1 large jar candle, its just such a shame that they are hard to get x

Was just looking at them myself.

What fragrances do you recommend? Also what is the fragrance throw like and do they burn evenly? x
