There’s this little place I love, Pensacola Beach, FL. In that place, there’s a hotel I love called Margaritaville®. When you take my “happy place” and mix it with my love of Yankee Candle, that’s a whole lot of love. Being a Yankee Candle blogger, I have the lucky job of getting to preview all of their new collections. But the Margaritaville® Collection by Yankee Candle is my absolute favorite of all time.
This collection is kind of like bringing home the best scents of a beach vacation. (PS – you can win a vacation by checking out the #MyMargaritaville Sweepstakes!)
- Jamaican Vacation – Ripe tropical fruits, fresh island blooms and a dash of sugar let you know it’s island time—breathe in, enjoy, relax.
- Lime & Sea Salt – A tropical lime cocktail waiting for that chilled glass with a collar of sea salt.
- Pineapple Breeze – Juicy pineapple and tropical blooms pick up a hint of fresh vanilla on the warm island breeze.
- Mother Ocean – A breezy scent full of island air and big surf with notes of blue lotus and lavender.
I’ve got to admit, my favorite is Pineapple Breeze. It smells divine. But why I’m most excited about this collection is that I get to give a set away to one of you! One lucky winner will one a set of four of the Margaritaville® Collection candles – one tin of each scent.
