Yankee Candles TSV 09/09/15

This is a funny TSV, especially as we've only just had a votive one and that was 'Out of Africa'. And we've had 'Grand Bazaar' as well in a TSV this year, granted it was jars, but still a repeat in my book.

I do like these fragrances, but not sure about this TSV.
 
The last couple of photos show a plate and a stand for a votive, does anyone know if these are included?

And just a bit of a bug bear of mine too - I thought votives were suppose to be in an enclosed holder? lol!
 
dreadful tsv...i cant understand the bit n bobs yet again. you barely get a scent out of the large jars much less the votives and this collection has been out a while now.
 
I agree awful TSV even for me who loves votives! I have no interest in these scents. I prefer the more random sets of votives with holders because I pick out the ones I love for individual burning on my bedside table when I am reading or watching TV (yes you get a great throw this way if you are in bed next to it-and don't have to leave it burning for 3 hours! ). I also have a votive in the downstairs cloakroom that fills the room with fresh scent (meadow showers atm). And another in the bathroom for when I soak in the tub with a glass of wine!

For the ones I don't really like the mixology holder holds 3 random votives that blend together to make something nicer. Keep this in the kitchen window along with my mixology tart burner. Fab for masking kitchen cooking smells.

The votives are a great way of trying a fragrance before spending money on large jars. As a consequence I only own a few large jars and only in scents I know I love. I would never spend money on a "random" large jar just because it is reduced in price in a garden centre. Because I already know I like and want a certain fragrance I can look out for it featuring in a duo or a trio with other ones I like too, or on Amazon.

I love my votives.. but hate the lack of variety in this TSV. :)
 
Sorry to be a bit childish, but...

Borrrrrrrrrrriiiiinnnnngggggggggggggggggggggggggg.

Remember Yankee TSVs of old when there was some variety?
 
huge boxes with everything. medium jar, large shade, 6 votives, 4 votive holders, wreath for xmas, 6 festive tarts, xmas tart burner all matching those were the days. still got my hardware
 
No temptation for me,thankfully! I think the trouble with this is they have shown these votives endlessly so we have all had a chance to buy them. The only benefit in this set is they make easy to wrap presents.

I agree - it's more a case of "same old same old". My money's safe.

I think there is way too much packaging. I'd rather have lower prices and less packaging, personally.

Hope they are not showing sideways!
Extra large votive holders a bit like a hurricane (but not big enough to hold a large jar but would hold a small jar or a votive in a glass holder).

All 3 purchased from Lidl today £3.99 each

Should say 2 of these in my living room has a throw as good as a large jar. Well done Lidl these look beautiful and proof that votives are the way to go!

Lidl also selling candles, tea lights and extra- large tea lights that would fit into the bottom of these beauties.

I was looking at those in Lidl today. Also the large wooden & metal lanterns with a rustic/distressed look which I nearly bought but not sure I'd actually use. Not bad for £9.99 though. I did buy a little pack of 18 tealights for 99p and some other non-candle decor things.
