Has anyone tried these? I love some Yankee candles - Clean Cotton, Sun Washed Linen, Christmas Cookie - while I found the Roses smelt of nothing at all. Was
wondering whether to try Hanna's candles, and wondered how they compared.

I have had 2 hanna candles. Smell not as good (intense) as YC and I found the wicks gave off more smoke. I was not converted. Tess x

Thanks for the feedback - reading reviews on QVC it seems there are mixed opinions on these - I think I will stick to Yankee candles

I agree with Tess. I bought a set of 6 candles last christmas and only one had a decent scent to it. Trimmed the wicks quite short as stated but still had
black smoke from them. I have even tried some candles that I bought from a candle party I went to and still go back to Yankee candles.
I don't think you can get any better candle than Yankee. Sandra

Do you think Yankee candles are best for not giving off smoke? I always seem to end up with dirty smoke marks after Ive been burning candles so really need
some that dont smoke.

I use an oil burner and burn the Yankee candles wax tarts, they are super and they last for ages....I prefer them to the actual candles.

I adore my Yankee candles and really don't have trouble with smoke. You need to keep your wick trimmed as that can cause smoke.
I just bought a wicker basket with some small Yankee candles for my friend who is throwing the 4th July BBQ tomorrow, but looking at this weather it may not go ahead
