As I have mentioned before, I love candles. I love the ambiance that they create. I love the aroma of the candle and it just provides warmth and atmosphere. So when I had the opportunity to review two of the new Glade Holiday Candles I was really excited. I really like Glade products and I have many of them in my home. Glade of course is an air freshener company that makes candles, air fresheners and carpet deodorizers which I call Carpet Sprinkles. Glade has many different products and scents. One of my family’s Christmas traditions is buying a candle that smells like a Christmas tree. I love that tradition but there are many other holiday scents of candles I like as well.
Glade has different types of candles. The normal candles in a glass candle holder, the candles in the tins and the Scented Oil Candles. I think that the Scented Oil Candles are cool because when they are done they go out. You can re use the same base over and over with different scents too. I love the Glade commercials. My favorite one is the one where the lady tries to convince her friends that her candle is a boutique candle from France and the label is stuck to the back of her dress. One of her friends says what you have never heard of Gladay. I think the commercials are so funny.
I had the opportunity to try the Bayberry Spice Holiday candle and the Apple Cinnamon scented oil candle. The Bayberry Spice candle is in a beautiful glass holder that is perfect for my holiday décor. It smells wonderful. It is actually lit right now. I often use candles as decorations when they are not lit. It is my favorite color too! It is a strong scent but not over powering. I have noticed that some candles are really over powering or you have to almost burn your nose to smell anything. The Bayberry Spice has a spicy scent that reminds me of Christmases in the past. The Apple Cinnamon Scented Oil candle is great as well. My favorite candle scent is apple. I love the smell of cinnamon too. It reminds me of apple crisp when I smell it. It is warm and inviting and a sweet yet spicy aroma.
The great thing about Glade candles are they are inexpensive. There is usually coupons in the Sunday paper to help you save even more. You can afford to put a Glade candle in every room. You can even afford to burn them all day. I like those expensive candles that you get at candle stores but since they are so expensive I can only get one at a time. I am much more careful about burning them too. Glade candles smell great and are very affordable for all of your candle needs.
