Yankee Candle Sweet Treats: Cranberry Twist & Vanilla Bourbon

Along with Christmas scents for 2015, Yankee Candle also released a more gourmet limited edition scents for adding an extra pre-festive feel to your home. Yankee Candle decided for all time favourite vanilla and always wintery cranberries. Keep your eyes peeled as these two new scents, Vanilla Bourbon and Cranberry Twist won't be available for long. Still, they are worth the extra Yankee sin as they smell absolutely delicious and scrumptious.

Poleg že prispelih božičnih vonjev, sta se pred kratkim na Yankee Candle police pretihotapila dva gurmansko neustavljiva vonja. Oba vonja sta namreč omejene izdaje, hkrati pa poželjivo dišeča in si vsekakor zaslužita malce pozornosti. Oba pričarata pred-božično vzdušje, ki takoj spomni na prijetne večere s prijatelji ob čaju ali kavi. Namreč, za to poskrbita vedno zaželjena burbonska vanilija in zimsko obarvane brusnice, poimenovane kot Bourbon Vanilla in Cranberry Twist. Vsekakor nabrusite prstke in čutnice, saj sta oba vonja vredna sladkega Yankee greha in lahko hitro izgineta še pred Božičem.

Cranberry Twist as a more fruity side of the spectrum, has a significantly likable scent that will appeal to both, younger and older generation. It's a perfect cross between extra fruity jelly gummies and crispy fresh cranberries. It's definitely not entirely focused only on cranberries rather a balanced mix of forest fruits with a bit of tart note. Cranberry notes, however, give this particular candle a certain wintery feel to it yet the notes are not too strong to repeal persons with hatred towards cranberries. With upcoming festive season, I can truly recommend this candle as a perfect present for Yankee fans. Plus it's limited edition which makes it even more desirable and cherished.

Cranberry Twist osvaja s sadnimi notami, ki bodo všeč tako mlajši kot tudi starejši generaciji. Je popolna vmesna pot med trpko svežimi brusnicami in sladkimi žele bonboni z okusom jagodičevja. Vonj vsekakor ni čisto ''brusničen'', kot na primer božična izdaja Cranberry Ice, ampak bolje rečeno gozdno jagodičevje z brusnicami v ospredju. Tisti, ki na splošno sovražite vonj brusnic, lahko se zgodi, da bo ta vonj veliko presenečenje. Ima tudi trpke lastnosti, za kar ta sveča ni presladka. Dobra lastnost brusničnega vonja je tudi to, da z lahkoto pričara zimski čar in vzdušje, ki trenutno primanjkuje pri tako topli jeseni. Tudi za prihajajočo praznično obdobje bo ta svečka popolno darilo še za tako zahtevnega Yankee Candle ljubitelja, saj je zaradi omejene izdaje še toliko bolj dragocena.

Vanilla Bourbon on the other side of the spectrum, will satisfy your taste buds in the same way as a good old coffee after a great lunch. It's truly a sweet kind of scent that is perfect for all vanilla fans. With sweet yet bitter notes it's a perfect vanilla for grown ups. Coffee gives an extra kick of homey luxury. Vanilla as a base and undertones of coffee, hazelnut and caramel cream creates a mix of true, hot winter drink. Really appealing and warm for cosy weekend nights.

Vanilla Bourbon po drugi strani zastopa vse tople, kremne napitke z vonjem čokolade, vanilije ali kave. S sladkimi in kremnimi notami bo potešila še tako zahtevne sladokusce. Vonj je enostavno popoln za vse oboževalce vanilije, saj je le-ta tudi glavna nota. Ima dokaj sladek in hkrati priokus kave, kar tvori odlično kombinacijo ''vanilije za odrasle''. Kava doda grenkost in značilen, a omiljen občutek razkošja. Torej, sveča je v glavnini sestavljena iz vanilije ter začinjena z dodatki karamelne smetane, lešnikovega posipa in rahle kave. Vse skupaj ustvari popolni napitek in aromo, da skoraj pogreje od znotraj navzven.

Vanilla Bourbon and Cranberry Twist are gourmet scents with a special twist, perfect for colder months. Unfortunately they're both limited but I truly recommend checking out both, I'm personally loving Vanilla Bourbon. You can check out Yankee Candle online or in special home stores.

Obe svečki sta ne-tako klasični gurmanski izdaji, ki pogrejeta ali ohladita v mrzlih dneh. Vsekakor sta vredni ogleda, vendar sta v Sloveniji na voljo le v mali, srednji in veliki velikosti sveče. Moj osebni favorit je vsekakor Vanilla Bourbon, saj se je vanilije zelo težko naveličati. Cene se gibljejo 11,90-24,90€ in so na voljo v Vonj Narave na Gubčevi 4, v Citycentru, Ljubljani ter spletni trgovini ali Yankee Candle trgovini na Nazorjevi 12 v Ljubljani.
