Yankee Candle Spring 2012 Reviews

Here is a review on some of the Yankee 2012 Spring candles.  Unfortunately, for me at least, the collection is very FLORAL.  In fact only one scent is fruity.  Bleh, floral candles give me such bad headaches.  However, I was quite curious to hear about them anyway. So the candles that will be reviewed are [...]
