Yankee or Bath & Body Works Candles

Between the 2, which ones are better? Trying to decide on gifts for my wedding party and I'm not sure which one is better. What do you think?

    I find them quite equal in quality, it really just depends on the scent in my opinion. I’ve had strong and weak candles from both brands.

    I prefer B&BW. To me they burn more evenly and the scent last longer.

    I am a huge candle person. Can you see if a local store carries Woodwich candles? My Marshall’s and TJMaxx started carrying them and they’re awesome and comparable in price.

    Otherwise Bath and Body Works White Barn high intensity scents are my favorite

    I love Bath and Body works candles but they just burn so fast! At almost $30 I would hope they would last longer than what they have.

    I prefer B&BW scents 100000x over Yankee, but Yankee has a longer burn time.

    I’ve always found BBW candles to smell better and fill up a room better than Yankee

    I love Yankee candle and feel they smell/burn better than any other candles. If you're giving them as gifts, there's also an option to add a picture and Verbiage to personalize them.

    If you want candles with a better burn time - look at soy candles. They also burn cleaner Smiley smile neither bath and body works or yankee candle sell them (that I know) but you can find places on Etsy.

    I love both, but i'm a bit biased toward Yankee Candles because I used to work in a candle shop ant that was a big seller.

    I would choose BBW candles, but I don't have much experience with Yankee Candle!

    I learned that the candle holders at bbw make the candles burn longer and stronger. Just a tip!

    You're welcome! I don't think you could go wrong with either brand, but I feel like bbw feels more "gifty" and luxurious for some reason.
