Yankee Candle - Balsam & Cedar Reviews
#2 in Candles

Description

This is a Woody fragrance. Balsam & Cedar is a timeless classic for a reason. 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. This deep, woody fragrance creates a feeling of groundedness and connection to nature. Top notes: Crisp Citrus, Herbs, Red Berry. Middle notes: Pine Balsam, Cedar, Sandalwood. Base notes: Vanilla, Warm Amber, Musk. Top note is the initial impression of the fragrance, middle note is the main body of the scent and base is its final impression.

    Very strong scent

    Very strong scent more than im used to but the Baltimore and Cedar smell was really nice. I usually buy 100% organic soy or coconut candles but this was a big change for me and it’s made with essential oils which is really nice. It really made my bath experience better and the smell last forever i cant wait to burn this again.

    Absolutely gorgeous

    I absolutely love this candle! The look is minimalistic which I love and can fit into any space. The scent is inviting, warm and just right! I’ve always been a fan of Yankee candle and they didn’t disappoint with this!

    Seems so soothing

    Great product! I always love their candles. And this time, it comes in a beautiful glass too. Great to add to my current night table set up. It’s such a great looking decor piece on its own too. Will definitely buy these candles for my friends as gifts.

    Warm, woodsy, and surprisingly calming

    I love candles. Like, really love them. I’ve been into aromatherapy for years, and Balsam & Cedar instantly made its way to the top of my fave scents list.

    There’s something about the mix of pine, cedarwood, and that hint of warm amber that just slows everything down. It’s calm without being sleepy, strong without being overwhelming.

    You can actually smell it even when it’s not lit (a major bonus), and when it is burning, it fills the room evenly without that fake “sprayed-a-room-freshener” vibe. The wax burns smooth and clean, and I didn’t get any of that sooty black smoke when blowing it out.

    This was my first time trying this scent and it did not disappoint.

    Love it and you would too

    I recommend this 100% and will also love to try more from the brand. This doesn’t give any choking feeling for someone who doesn’t like woody smells, this is perfect and calming

    AMAZING SMELL

    This candel smells amazing, like i am in the woods for christmas. I have been lighting it for a few hours a night and it still has so much left. Yankee candels are so nostalgic for me and a childhood reminder. Would recomend. I recieved this free from Butterly

    Cozy fresh scent!

    If a scent was created to immediately bring me happiness and make me feel cozy, this would be it. It evokes happy memories and smells so good! It doesn't give me a headache like some scented candles do and turns very cleanly - no grey smoke, clean wick, nice smooth melt pool. I am really happy with this candle and love how it immediately whispers "quiet woods". I was provided with a free product but my review remains honest - I would purchase this candle for myself!

    This is great for an unwind session

    I love the aesthetic this candle provides, the design and the color is amazing. the fragrance is very woody and strong, but I love woody fragrances and I see myself using this more in the future. I mostly use candles on cleaning days and this is gonna be amazing as it smells very green and natural and very clean. I would love to try the other flavors too. I received this free from butterly for review purposes.

    Christmas in June!!!

    This candle made me happy/sad... let me explain. First of all, the SCENT.... transported me to Christmas, my favourite time of the year. I was happy for a moment and then DEVESTATED that Christmas is 6 months away. Secondly... I'm doubly sad because the Yankee Candle store near me closed a year or two ago, and I have been DYING to get my hands on their candles ever since. Again, this candle makes me HAPPY/SAD because I love love love the scent, I find YC does a brilliant job of blending the strength of a scent with subtlety... but I don't know how I'm going to feel when I burn through this one... ugh.

    Amazing find

    This Balsam and Cedar scented candle is one of the best finds to calm down my mood swings. The fragrance is so welcoming yet therapeutic. I tried it while taking a relaxing bath, beside my bed for a good read and at my dinner table. This always created a lasting impression. As it's bas note is vanilla and that's my favorite, so this one is my happy scent.
