Candle Difference part 1

Yankee Brand Candles

  • $24.37 including tax- no shipping
  • 22 oz jar
  • Burn Time: 110-150 hours
  • Single Wick
  • IN CASE OF SPILLS: OH NO!!!
  • WAX LEFT IN JAR AFTER TOTAL BURN TIME
    APROX 4 OZ.
  • Scent: Pure true scent that comes through strong
    for the first 2 inches of candle.
  • Actual cost per ounce based on above- $1.35
  • Ingredients: Premium-grade, highly refined
    paraffin waxes specially blended for optimum
    burning and fragrance performance.
  • WHY? On a visit to the competitor's flagship store,
    I inquired why no natural waxes. My answer: "We
    experimented with it and found the cost to be
    prohibitive. Our customers would never pay what we
    would need to manufacture them."
  • Bottom Line: Why would you want to burn a candle
    containing petroleum products with possible adverse
    health affects and even pay more in the long run?
  • 7% fragrance oils
