Strength – on a scale of 1 to 10, I would rate this candle a 3/4 in a small room. Not strong at all for its size. That was the biggest negative. Please note that Royal Mail currently classes perfumes, nail polishes, flammable liquids and aerosols as "hazardous materials" and will only accept a limited number of these per parcel. I also took a 3-second video at about 3-1/2 hours into the test. As you can see, there was a gentle draft in the room, but the flame was mostly protected from air currents. I suspect that other reviewers who complain of short burn times either have the candle in a low-walled tealight holder where the flame is exposed to air currents, or place the candle in significant drafts (central heating or ac, or outdoors). Drafty areas can dramatically shorten a candle’s burn time.

Top note is the initial impression of the fragrance, middle note is the main body of the scent and base is its final impression. I really liked this fragrance… it’s just a bummer it wasn’t very strong. But, it’s the way it goes with this brand I’m afraid. Yankee candles are consistently light for me and I know that going in. The fragrance itself… awesome! It was a sweet and warm cookie that will make you smile every time you get a whiff of it. I would have drooled even more had it given a stronger scent throw.
