As soon as I smelled this Macintosh candle, I was immediately transported back to my Mama's kitchen! She loved Yankee candles and this was one of her favorite scents! I am so thrilled to see that they have kept this one around. It filled almost my whole house with this wonderful scent that indeed smells just like apples. I'm not really a fan of overly perfumed scents, but as always Yankee's candles don't smell chemical at all... just a nice fragrance that manages to waft all through your home. I really like that this one has two wicks and burns evenly. The lid that turns into a base is a nice touch too! Now that I have been reminded how awesome Yankee candles are I am going to have to search for some of my other old favorites!
