[@mayathebraveofkitwanga448]

This is art. Like perfumery. I too take candle art seriously. Such a good hobby to collect them❤

[@Night_Shift_Sister]

Every Fall, I burn Harvest, Farmer’s Market and MacIntosh in three separate rooms at the same time. I love to layer fragrances and those are my three favorite candles to bring fall to my home 🍁

[@metropcs5777]

Hey shane neaver really comented on this and i know its a old show but Yankee candle always comes out with new scents for Halloween and i try a few but to me when its that time of year nothing will ever beat the Classics Witches Brew,Spiced Pumpkin and Harvest ...James from Detroit .

[@monajona1]

I find your approach to candle videos refreshing and absolutely creative:) Can't wait to see what else you have lined up!

[@TheCandleEnthusiast]

So nice of you to say. It totally makes my day to hear a comment like this. Thanks! Fun stuff to come. 😄

[@adamw7290]

The Spiced Pumpkin sounds good. Your description of it makes me want to eat pumpkin pie.

[@laurieyoung7671]

Makes me want get both-- Autumn scents are my favorite!

[@lauracontrerasgaribay1055]

[@albita263]

i just found your channel . it so interesting the way you describes the aromas, now i need to put more attention and smell.. but truly smell, thankyou. getting spiced pumpkin on amazon today.

[@TheCandleEnthusiast]

So glad you found my channel. Aroma and the art of sensory evaluation is something I take very seriously (but always manage to still have fun with it). Hope you enjoy exploring other videos. Thanks for reaching out!

[@bibbycat1]

I needed this today!

[@sunnified99]

Thanks for reviewing my favorite fall fragrances. I had my candles ready to sniff while watching. Okay, I'm getting that peaches and cream note from the Spiced Pumpkin and I never smelled anything other that cinnamon and cloves before now. Just wish it had a stronger throw while burning. Looking forward to your upcoming videos!!

[@TheCandleEnthusiast]

Julie . Hi Julie, yeah a lot of people comment on throw issues to these candles. I'm working on a video that will cover this topic in-depth. So glad you're sticking with me and watching my vids 😊

[@laurieyoung7671]

As you asked at the end of this video.....yes, I am a candle enthusiast!! Love it more each day!

[@dianereiser6417]

I can't wait to see what you have for a Christmas line up.

[@TheCandleEnthusiast]

Diane Reiser Lots of great stuff planned. I definitely have my work cut out for me 😄. Thanks for watching !👍🏻

[@Prospectgirl]

I’ve had the Pine Ridge wine you suggest at the end of the video and I really liked it!

[@lupo5095]

Perhaps there should be another compare and contrast for this year with two other classics.. Autumn wreath maybe?

[@Ruffles2012]

Wow youre really detailed! All i noticed was the spices but now I'm going to go resmell it now lol loved this video, will subscribe!

[@TheCandleEnthusiast]

Ruffles2012 Great! Enjoy! And thanks, I appreciate it! 👍🏻😃

[@anns2scents136]

I just discovered the Spiced Pumpkin this year 2017. I love that scent. I don't usually try the pumpkin spice candles so I never thought I would like it until I smelled it at a store. Not too spicy and the right amount of clove that makes me feel warm but not hit in the face like cinnamon spice does to me when I smell it.. I liked Harvest and Farmers Market but Spiced Pumpkin took their place.-Ann

[@emmbee6552]

Harvest is by far my favorite over Spiced Pumpkin. And I love anything pumpkin

[@mailonez1]

Most of us know that candles can smell different on cold than when they are burning. To me the most important factor is how well the candle performs while burning. Do you burn your candles or are you just a collector? How many candles do you have in your collection. I would love to see a video of your candle collection. Thanks. Love your videos.

[@TheCandleEnthusiast]

Laurie C ... Absolutely. Thanks for bringing this up 😁👍🏻. No question, smelling a candle cold will never give you a true representation of how it will perform once lit. However, if you can decipher top, heart and base notes, you can give a pretty decent educated guess how the oils will act once volatilized. I'll try to address this more. The trouble is, there's so many variables when burning (airflow, temperature, humidity, drafting, diffusion.... 😓). I find that a lot of people are quick to blame their Candle when they can't smell it, when in reality, it might be a simple fix... like turning off the central air or plugging in a dehumidifier. I'm working on a series of videos that will address these and other topics. I'll be partnering with some university professors to acquire some scientific answers. And of course, then put everything to the test. 🤓 I've kept my collection at a moderate size. I move a lot, so it's not very practical to collect. With that said, I was close to 150 Yankee Candle large housewarmers last time I checked. For some that's insane, for some a trifle. For me and my lifestyle, it's far too many 😁. I will be happy to do a video on my collection some time. I will put it on the agenda. Thanks for all of your kind words!!! 😁👍🏻🕯

[@mailonez1]

The Candle Enthusiast, Thanks for responding. I agree that there are many different variables people may not consider while burning candles. Wow! Your YC collection is quite impressive to me. Once again, I love your approach to reviewing candles. It's so refreshing and interesting. Looking forward to your new videos.

[@phylliscraine]

I just burned both of these candles in the two wick tumbler size, often together, and I totally agree that there is a chai spice note in Harvest. But I *also* get a sweet cooked corn note inHarvest but not in Spiced Pumpkin. Now I did really try not to be influenced by the label imagery lol, but I gotta say I really did get a corn note through the whole burn. For Spiced Pumpkin I got an uncooked pumpkin pie filling note along with vanilla and sugar. Did not detect any orange slice but I do agree with your "old cinnamon" comment. My Harvest candle is now an empty so at this very moment I have Spiced Pumpkin going with Kitchen Spice and that pairing is also very nice. And finally when I get out to the Deerfield store I am so goona search for Pumkin Patch! I had no idea until this video

[@TheCandleEnthusiast]

Great notes Phyllis and great descriptors as well. I love the "uncooked pumpkin pie" description. Nicely done. Spiced Pumpkin and Kitchen Spice sounds fantastic :) Thanks for sharing! oh and yes, definitely pick up Pumpkin Patch if you come across it! Great candle, great label. Thanks for watching!!

[@d.m.3133]

Wow. Who would have thought, pears, orange blossoms and chamomile in Spiced Pumpkin!? I have a new jar so I'll try to sniff that out. I love both these scents equally but love them together the most. Even though I've been burning those two longer the Bath & Bodyworks scent Pumpkin Carving/Heirloom Pumpkin signals the Halloween season for me. I don't know it it's the scent itself or if I burned it non stop in the past during Halloween. Thanks for the wine recommendation!

[@TheCandleEnthusiast]

True, those are great scents from BBWs. Maybe I'll go purchase them for a analysis. I think I'm going to make the wine recommendations a semi regular thing, as long as everyone finds them fun/useful. 😄

[@bellbookcandle3051]

I do like burning these two together. Have had to do that recently, because neither of them are throwing. :-( I go way back with these as my Autumn favorites as well. Hard to choose; but if the house was on fire, & I could only save one, I guess it would have to be Harvest. ;-) Just really wish YC would work on the fragrance strength! Hard to have a "sincere" Great Pumpkin experience without fragrance... Thanks for the thorough review!🎃🍁

[@TheCandleEnthusiast]

Thanks for the feedback. I keep hearing about "throw" issues with these candles. It's such a shame. I'm currently doing substantial research and working on a segment regarding throw and how to maximize its potential. It's such a big topic and there are so many variables.

[@UrbexYorkshire]

yankee candle berry trifle jumps out to me to be a perfect fall and of October candle beautifle aroma and flavour

[@TheCandleEnthusiast]

Daniel Phillips I'm totally with you on that one 👌🏻. A great autumn recommendation, especially if you're not into or weary of 'baking spice' candles. Thanks for the comment 😁👍🏻

[@UrbexYorkshire]

anytime buddy love the vids keep it up 😃

i watched 5 times before i saw the camera wobbles with the table
