So I love and enjoy the woodwick series of yankee candle.  I specifically enjoy their fall and winter scents, evening bonfire is my personal favorite.  Coastal sunset is a nice relaxing smell I feel with a hint of strawberries and cream.  The scent itself is not too strong but just enough to give the impression of beach weather.  The crackle is casually loud and makes an evening with a special someone a little more romantic.  Add some wine and chocolate covered fruit of choice and this candle for extra excitement.  The only down side specifically to the ellipise series is how fast it burns because of the long wick.  If you want a longer lasting series do the large candles, if you are looking for a louder crackle with a bigger lighting effect (I recommend in the fireplace or on top of the farthest flat surface in the bedroom) go with the ellipse.  Amazing candle!!!
