Mike Kittredge was sitting at home at the kitchen table on a cold December evening. Christmas was approaching, and he had no money to buy his mother a great gift. He decided to create a unique candle inspired by his creativity. A neighbor saw the candle and wanted it immediately. He sold it and quickly bought new materials to make more candles—one for his mother and one for sale. Thus, the wonderful brand Yankee Candle was born. Since 1969, it has shared its passion for fragrances with the world. Rigorous testing and quality control. Yankee Candle is made by professional candle makers. Each newly developed candle is a complex system of specially blended wax, a unique wick, and a carefully crafted fragrance, developed by master perfumers. Each scent is meticulously selected, reviewed, and tested to ensure a special fragrance experience in your home.
