My first encounter with this candle was at my local YC store. I typically don't like fruity scents but saw the bright red jar and thought I would give it a try. I was instantly transported to the Summer when I would pick fresh raspberries and eat them as fast as I could pick them. I purchased the red Raspberry basket that was being offered as a promotion because I really enjoyed the scent. I loved everything that was in the basket especially the small tumbler. I knew I had to get the large jar for this fragrance. I am so glad I did. This candle has a medium throw that is not overwhelming but is pleasantly warm and not too sweet. It reminds me of sunshine is about the best way to put it. This has been the perfect candle for February and will be good for the Summer too! If you like something different, not too sweet or perfumey that smells like sunshine then this is your candle.
