for the nature girlies

The Balsam and Cedar candle from Yankee Candle is the PERFECT woody fragrance. I am a nature girly and this candle depicts nature so well as a timeless classic. Pine balsam scents mingle with brisk cedarwood, evoking a stroll through the forest, while nuanced base notes of warm amber offer a sense of comfort and calm. I love to light it while I'm cleaning because it really puts me in the mood and also calms me down when i want just "ME" time.

Balsam & Cedar

I recently got this candle and I can’t stop raving about it, it smells so good! From the moment I lit it, the entire room was filled with the most comforting and luxurious scent. It’s warm, woodsy, and clean all at once.. almost like stepping into a cozy cabin in the forest, with a touch of elegance. The fragrance isn't overpowering but lingers gently in the air, making my space feel calm and inviting.

I’ve tried a lot of candles over the years, and this one stands out by far. The quality of the wax, the smooth burn, and how evenly the scent disperses all point to a well-crafted product. Even when it’s not lit, it still adds a subtle aroma to the room, which I love. It’s honestly become a part of my daily routine to light it in the evening and wind down. I’m obsessed and will definitely be buying more!

Perfect for a fall or winter burn

Butterly sent me this Yankee Candle in balsam & cedar for an honest review. The scent is nice and woodsy, better suited to burning in the fall and winter rather than the summer, however. The jar is lovely, and has a nice heft to it. It looks great on my bookshelf, where I moved it so my always well-behaved cat can’t knock it over. Although, I don’t think she will, she seems to like the scent too.

Great fragrance for people who love the outdoors!

Candles are my way to relaxation every day. The smell, and burn time of this candle is absolutely amazing. We travel a lot to our Rocky Mountains, and after lighting this candle I could just see the mountains, trees and rivers in my head. The woody fragrance is just the right amount. If you enjoy bath and body works candles, you would definitely love this candle! The jar is even aesthetically pleasing!

The blend of balsam and cedar is cozy, calming and perfect for creating a relaxing atmosphere. It burns evenly, lasts a long time, and isn’t overpowering. A perfect candle for cozy days and quiet evening.

Yankee Candle in the woods

A walk in the woods keeps me calm, centered, and connected with the world around me. Yankee Candle’s Balsam & Cedar candle transports you right into those fond memories of strolling in the rainforest on a summer day to snowshoeing through a winter wonderland during the Christmas season, evoking that same deep sense of being surrounded with nature, right in the comfort of your living room.

A relaxing walk in the forest

I was gifted this Yankee Candle in the scent Balsam & Cedar to review. I really enjoy the scent, it’s very woodsy and reminds me of taking a walk in the forest. It’s a very comforting scent. The smell is strong but not overwhelming. I would love to use this candle around the holidays as it reminds me of Christmas trees. The candle burns slow and the scent lasts a long time. I’m very impressed with the quality and scent of this candle.

Best Yankee Candle Yet ! Beautiful vessel !

This candle is absolutely beautiful! Its tapered glass vessel matches my decor perfectly and it smells fantastic! It's infused with essential oils and makes me feel like I am on a peaceful stroll through the woods.
The tapered base means it fits perfectly in my favourite marble pillar candle holder.

Make your home smell wonderful!

How can you make your home smell good all the time? A good candle is the key! I love the earthy, woody smell this candle has been bringing to my home. It is functional and smells great.

Thank you @yankeecandle and @thisisbutterly for making my home smell wonderful 😍

Almost perfect for me!

What I especially love is how beautifully this candle is designed. I’m obsessed with green tones, and this rich, deep color adds such a cozy and aesthetic touch to my space. It’s not just about the scent—it looks stunning too.

It burns slowly and evenly. I’ve been using it daily for over a week and it’s still going strong, which speaks to the quality.

The fragrance itself is beautifully layered: you get that fresh burst of citrus and herbs at first, followed by the heart of balsam and cedar, with a warm, slightly sweet base of amber and vanilla. Personally, I would prefer the vanilla to be a bit less sweet—but that’s just me being picky! Overall, it’s a comforting, grounding scent that feels perfect for evenings at home.
