I love candles and burn them all the time. I think Gold Canyon Candles are the best. They burn evenly and completely and have the best scent throw. (just wish they weren't so expensive.  ) My favorites are Banana Bay, Pomgranate, and Warm Welcome. |

| So far my favourites are PartyLite (where they do the home shows) ... they have a really nice high concentration of fragrance oils. And also, Yankee Candles seem to be really good. Since PartyLite is harder to come by, I have been buying Yankee Candles alot lately. I like that they come in glass containers too. |

I love Diptyque candles - they have a pretty strong scent that seems to spread well throughout the house. Pity about the price  |

Voluspa candles are heavenly. My fav ones are from their Black Creme and Japonica collections. They make great gifts.

| I like yankee candles - we don't have a lot of choice over in the UK, and that is one of the few brands which is readily accessible and has a nice variety of scents. I love French vanilla - yum!! |

| I love candles, esp. when I can get nice ones cheap. When I'm having a bad day and not in the mood to do serious retail therapy I cruise Marshall's or Ross (US discounters) for candles. I've snagged some nice Bill Blass and DKNY stuff for a song! |

| Bought a few Party Lites candles from a g/f years ago after she held some little party. I really like Yankee Candles though, smell and size. |

| I like soy candles from Virginia candles. They don't seem to have a lot of smoke and pollute the air inside. I really like their vanilla scent. |

| Gold Canyon, hands down... If you're wanting one that REALLY does scent up your entire house, these do it... And the scents are fabu... You can get them thru a dealer or even on ebay... |

| Wow...I havent tried many of these. My favorite is White Barn Candle Company. They are the candles sold at bath and body works. I used to work there and while I did I became HOOKED to Fresh linen and their halloween candles (they smell just like candy corn). I have really gotten away for candles after I purchased my Lamp Berger. They are fantastic. I have lots of animals and this thing totally gets rid of any smell. |

I love the range of candles at Space NK, however for affordable everyday candles I tend to stock up on habitat scented tea light candles. My current faves are the mixed bag of vanilla, sweet almond & chestnut tea lights - divine  |

I'm not that particular about candles, so I'm going to watch this thread to get some new ideas. One of my requirements is that the candle has to be in a glass jar or similar container, so that the wax drippings are contained -- I hate cleaning up candle wax (even if I put things in the freezer, or hot water, etc.)
I currently own several from a company in TX (Dreamer's Candles I think they are called? Plumeria scent from this line is my favorite) and Yankee Candles. |

I am burning my Yankee Candle 'french vanilla 'at the moment.
I'm a bit of a joss stick burner as well, and some times oils, it depends what mood I'm in as to what fragrance candle or joss stick or oil I burn. |
