This is a general compilation of active, retired, and specialty Yankee Candle candle scents.[a]
The Yankee Candle Company, Inc., doing business as Yankee Candle, is an American manufacturer and retailer of scented candles, candleholders, accessories, and dinnerware. Its products are sold by thousands of gift shops nationwide, through catalogs, and online, and in nearly 50 countries around the world. The company currently operates 217 small-box format stores.[1] The company is headquartered in South Deerfield, Massachusetts.
Yankee Candle Company was started in South Hadley, Massachusetts, when Michael Kittredge, originally from Holyoke, Massachusetts, created his first scented candle, Christmas 1969, from melted crayons as a gift for his mother.[2] Neighbors began expressing interest in buying his creations, and Kittredge began producing them in larger quantities. The company was originally conceived as “Candles by Michael Kittredge,” but Kittredge later decided “The Yankee Candle Company” was a more suitable name.[3] The company itself was founded with help from Donald MacIver and Susan Obremski, who were high school friends with Kittredge.[4]
