Yankee Candles TSV 04/07/16

[warwa100]

I would love a scenterpiece, I've been waiting for ages for it to come back in to stock. One's on waitlist (didn't fancy the owl one) and the other has been taken off the website altogether. I think Stephen said lots of people had been asking him about it and that they'd be back in August. Q obviously underestimated the demand.

Clinton Cards have a good selection of Scenterpieces too, and the melt cups.

Thanks so much for all the links and useful info everyone. :mysmilie_504:

The only reason I was holding out for Q on this occasion was because I thought it'd be handy to have the option of returning it used, if I didn't like it for whatever reason. How have others who have got scenterpieces found them please?

Q only seem to offer really good value on the large jars with Yankee, although I bought the last TSV and have really enjoyed using it. This one is also quite tempting, as I'd like to try the new fragrances and could use the votives with my lamp. Will do what I always do, work out what it's all worth when we know how much it is, and then decide.

I have one that I get out at Christmas time (but I do want another one for all year round too) and I love it. The throw of fragrance is great and the cups are so easy to change. I'm not a massive fan of electric warmers, but I do like this.

Not tried a Scenterpiece I'm afraid as I don't really get the appeal (I like a FLAME! Can't be doing with electric tart warmers or LED 'candles' for same reason...!) BUT temptation gifts as mentioned above has selection of about 6/7 designs and they have 20 % off at the moment too... A couple of them look really nice and modern too...

Yes, I know what you mean, I like a real flame, too, particularly in the colder months. Was thinking that this might be handy over the Summer (not that it's looking like we're getting one!) or in other rooms in place of reed diffusers / plugs ins.

Thanks, it sounds good. I had an electric tart warmer, but we weren't terribly enamoured with it, and it just gathered dust in the end. This concept appealed to me, though. Will have a nose around all the sites you people have helpfully directed me towards, might be tempted to give up waiting for Q and just take the plunge while the sales are on and there are good deals to be had.

Brilliant, at least my money is safe - that hamper bag is awful (IMO).

Is the composition of this the same as the last hamper/basket TSV which was on Auto Delivery? What was the price of that one, anyone remember? I'm not interested but I know someone who might be.

Think so. Last one was £29.98 plus p and p. I liked last years hampers and use them but three is enough and that one looks garish. Would prefer large jars. Too many Tsvs with votives and tealights.

I want three of the new scents in large jars. I hope Q does a trio but if it includes Passionfruit thingy I shall buy from elsewhere.

Thanks! I'll have to go and find a shop.

Outlets too. Boundary mill had the deal 12 for ten pounds (if I recall correctly) at Birmingham one plus 10% if a member.

 

[boffy]

qvc are expensive on the whole specially factoring the huge postage costs

 

[mummyisbeauty]

i caved but in my defence I'm using the votives in my melter or my scenterpiece so cheaper than scenterpiece cups and i like the other hampers.

I didn't get this but went into a candles hop in Leeds today were they had all these new fragrances. I bought a melt in each flavour. I surprised myself as my favourite was the passion fruit one and l dont normally care for fruit ones. It reminds me of a stronger version of Bahama Breeze that was out a few years ago.

I bought some cheap Yankee tarts in Asda, however, the first one I used (mandarin and vanilla) smelled like the dog had pee'd on the floor. Are they really Yankee? I bought 10 summer flowers tarts off ebay for £10 no postage and they are lovely. New favourite.

yep they are real yankee but they are the simply home range which is for supermarkets & are a simpler blend & less fragrance oil ect so more subtile then the normal yankee ones

Thanks Super, but this one wasn't subtle, really strong smell and it wasn't nice. I'll just go for the proper ones in future.
