YANKEE CANDLE QVC TSV 28th July – It’s Car, Car July!


Welcome to this special review of the latest Yankee Candle TSV on home shopping channel QVC – available at a great one off today’s special value price of  £18.98 (plus p&p £3.95) , total £22.93! This is a HUGE Saving as the RRP of these items is £39.90

It’s a little different this time around as it is all about your car! Just because you are going out you don’t have to be without your favourite Yankee Candle scents – take Yankee with you on the move!

 

I’ll be taking a look at the collection with my own thoughts at using these car products for the first time – and I’m very lucky to have Yankee Candle Brand Ambassadors Steven Corfield and Rosa Speyer’s thoughts on their favourites too.

This special collection for your car has an amazing fragrance life of up to 64 weeks – so lots of Yankee scent to keep you on the road.
 
It’s a first for me having never tried anything from the car collection before and what really surprised me was how authentic the fragrances are. They are exactly the same as you get in the candle range – that true to life scent that we love so much.

Let’s take a closer look at what’s in the collection :


There are 4 Car Jar Ultimates – each of which lasts up to 4 weeks

Also there are 6 Vent Sticks packs with 4 sticks in each pack. Each stick lasts up to 2 weeks, meaning each pack lasts up to 8 weeks in total.

As always with Yankee it’s about the fragrances so let’s take a look…

In the Car Jar ultimates we have Ocean Blossom, Macintosh, Coconut Bay and Lavender Vanilla.

Coconut Bay is an unusual scent to see as it isn’t available in candle form in the European range. It is a lovely pure coconut scent which will sweeten up the travelling miles in your car. It could be raining outside, but you’ll have a tropical paradise in your car interior!


 
I just love the look of these car jar ultimates with their jar shape and of course the iconic Yankee Candle fragrance images on show.

In the Vent Stick packs you get Black Cherry, Sun & Sand, Midsummer’s Night, Coconut Bay, Garden Sweet Pea and French Vanilla.

Garden Sweet Pea has that lovely fresh floral scent that for me would be perfect inside a car. Oh and how cute are these vent sticks with their little pop out Yankee Candle badge on the end!

 

Steven Corfield is hosting all of the Yankee shows today (the 28th) and they are live on air at 12am, 12pm, 3pm, 7pm and 10pm (the midnight launch show is also repeated at 4am and 8am).
 


I asked Steven which of the car collection scents would drive him wild in his car….
“For me it has to be the Black Cherry, French Vanilla and Coconut bay vent sticks. People who know me know that I just adore these fragrances. It just so wonderful that I have the option to take our fragrance from the home and extend it to my car (where I spend a lot of time).  I also love how with the vent sticks you can control how much fragrance you have, of course I have all 4 in at once!”

 
You don’t have to use the car collection in your vehicle and you may not drive. You could easily hang a car jar ultimate in a small room such as a bathroom or cloakroom to deliver a lovely fragrance. And then why not give the vent sticks as a gift to the favourite driver in your life or next time someone gives you a lift!

Rosa might not be presenting the shows this time around, but she couldn’t resist telling me which of the scents steer her in the right direction!


“Oooh do I have to pick just one? I'm really looking forward to Sun & Sand as it makes me feel like I'm driving to the beach. BUT... I'm also ridiculously excited about Ocean Blossom which I LOVE!!”

So why not treat yourself or a friend to this special Car, Car July collection at today’s never to be repeated TSV price!
