So what are your favorites? What are you loving right now? I need some new candle lemmings so enable me please!

There was a girl Pnkcosmo (If I remember correctly) that makes the most fabbbulous tarts....I bought a crap load of em like 3-4 months ago, and Ive given several to friends and I still have a lot left. Her prices are great, and she has soo many great scents, my fav being cotton candy, cinnamon strudle and I forget the other name :X Ill find her list and post it.

Aside from that I have strawberry shortcake (the food smell) candles, honeydew/melon, white orchid, black cherry, and a crapload of other candles too. I even have ones that glow under black lights (from my trippy days :X )
Whatever fragrance it is, (creme brulee atm) I love a nice smelling home

By far, the best candles I've EVER used are by Henri Bendel!!! I've tried so many brands, from low to high end but these are just the absolute best!!!!

My faves are:

Lemon Verbena*
Firewood
Pomegranate
Quince
Eucalyptus

There are so many scents, the line is huge and one candle scents the room with exactly what it smells like. these are fabulous, try them if you can!!!!!

I buy really great cheap tealights at Ikea. I love the vanilla ones and they seem to burn forever. They are perfect for my scent burner. Otherwise my faves are either partylite or yankee candles. I love anything with a lemon or vanilla scent. Oh, the spice cake ones are nice too. Yumm.
