Oddly pineapple is one of my favourite scents not to mention I rather enjoy munching on it as a snack.
I am a fan of citrus fruits but find they can be a little sickly and sweet when it comes to fragrances but pineapple oddly translates well particularly when it comes to candles. When you think of scented candles I doubt pineapple is the first thing that ever comes to mind but for a refreshing yet mild fruity fragrance you really have to try it out for yourself.
Honestly when I first heard that Yankee had created a Pineapple and Cilantro scent my first reaction was not one of joy as through the power of Google I found out that Cilantro is indeed another term for coriander my powerful nemesis I think we all have that one spice or herb we loathe and can taste it in food no matter how mild it may be and for me that is Coriander and boy do I hate it! Luckily Yankee Pineapple Cilantro does not have a hint of such hated ingredient despite what the label may suggest. To my nose it is a bright, sweet fruity pineapple scent that reminds me of sunny days at the beach when all you need is a good bikini (if like myself you like neon shades I recommend Aguaclara for funky swimwear) and book (Game of Thrones I will finish you if it kills me!).
Autumn and Winter may be the typical seasons for burning scented candles but if like myself you are a bit of an addict to all things scented and wax based then you need Yankee's newest offering - Pineapple Cilantro for the warmer weather, it is perfect for getting the house summer ready...if only doing the same for my body was as easy!

I got this last year from QVC and adore it!
