Yankee Candle Company (Europe) Limited, Poplar Way East, Cabot Park, Avonmouth, Bristol, BS11 OYH, United KingdomIn the fragrance blend, you’ve got intoxicating notes of mango, peach, pineapple, exotic fruits, passion fruit, and tropical fruits.

A good scented candle can not only make your home more inviting but also cultivate a specific mood, which is ideal if you want to relax after a long day or get into the festive spirit. One of the biggest benefits of Yankee Candles specifically is that you can buy them in an array of sizes, meaning you can try a scent in a smaller size before making a costly commitment. And, once you know what you like, you’re guaranteed to get your money’s worth, as the largest candles have a burn time of up to 150 hours. The fruity scent is balanced by grapefruit and musk, which both add some depth to the scent, making it a bit tangier, and a bit dreamier.

Reviews

Fruity: As the name suggests, these types of candles are based on fresh fruits. There are a few sub-categories here depending on the type of fruit, with the most popular being citrus (think lemon, grapefruit and lime) for its zingy, refreshing profile, and is best if you enjoy clean, bright smells. If you want something a little softer or more mellow, consider opting for something such as peach or red berries. One to burn during warm summer nights, and even as soon as the weather starts to get hotter in spring. The citrusy mix of lime and citrus, coupled with fresh and woody notes of pine, sage, vetiver, moss, and Juniper berry makes it one of the most popular Yankee Candle scents for summer. I told you about the Seaside Woods candle quite a few times already; it’s not only one of the best summer Yankee Candle scents, but a scent I burn all year long, especially when it starts getting really cold outside. It transports you to a holiday beach straight away, with a little bit of a reminder of Moonlit Cove and Seaside Woods, just more watery, more ocean scented.

Amazing if you’d like something fruity, but know you usually get tired of mango-scented candles, and fragrances which only contain fruits. Seaside Woods is one of the strongest Yankee Candle scents, and it really smells like that wet wood on the sand. If you’re looking for the strongest Yankee Candle scents for summer, I’d say this one is perfect in a medium-sized room, but I used to burn it in a really large living room, and I could smell it easily while working.

The best Yankee Candle scents in 2023

I loved the Beach Escape candle as soon as it was released, in summer 2021 if I’m correct. This one is available in the USA, the UK, and Europe, and the fragrance mix is utterly amazing – I’ve never had a summer Yankee Candle scent that amazing. If you’ve ever been looking for strong Yankee Candle scents for men, something more masculine with still a touch of summer vacation, you’re going to love the Midsummer’s Night candle. In reality, Bahama Breeze is much fruitier, much more exotic, and perfect if you like tropical scents and candles like Mango Peach Salsa.
