I have been buying Yankee candles for decades and Macintosh is by the far, the best scent Yankee, or any other candle company sells. I have used this in jar form, tarts and votives and any time someone comes in they say my house smells like I just peeled a bag of fresh apples. I've also been told when they've left my house they still smell the apple scent on their clothes, or hair (which Isn't a bad thing!) It's been my go to scent for over 20 years and I would tell anyone to be sure to try Macintosh before any other scent Yankee sells, though there are others I love as well, this is the ONE!!!
