Oh that wonderful fresh smell of Lilac Blossoms is exactly what this candle smells like! I can picture myself in the summer standing under a big lilac bush & oh that smell of all the fresh bloomed lilacs & how wonderful they smell. That's exactly what Yankee candles smell like, they smell like what they say they smell like exact. I don't know how they do it , I'm just glad they do. So if you haven't tried a Yankee Candle yet, you really need to get yourself one & quick. Highly recommend
