When I smelled this candle in the store I was excited to get home and light it and enjoy the wonderful smell of Yankee candle but to my disappointment the scent was nowhere to be found. I couldn't smell it anywhere in the house when I lit it. I let it burn for a few hours thinking maybe the scent would come out but nope it didn't. My kids as well said they couldn't smell anything and was disappointed so I know it wasn't just me. Really wished my house would've gotten filled with the wonderful scent I smelled when I sniffed it at the store.
