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 a nice gift for his mother. He decided to create a unique candle inspired by his thoughts. A neighbor saw the candle and immediately wanted it. He sold it and bought new materials to make more candles—one for his mother and one for sale. This is how the wonderful brand Yankee Candle was born. Since 1969, it has shared its passion for fragrances with the world. Strict testing and quality controls. 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 carefully selected, checked, and tested to ensure a special fragrance experience in your home.
