I like the candles from Walmart surprisingly but they're cheap so the wicks are always crossing and falling into the wax and they only smell after the
initial two burns or so. Does anyone have any suggestions for candles that are strong and long-lasting?
What are some good, really potent candles?

I have some Yankee Candles that are at least 5 years old, and they still smell as strong as they did when they were new. Another thing to make candles, even
cheap ones, last longer, is to use a candle warmer, instead of burning them.

I was just going to recommend the Walmart candles.

It's like a little hot plate, that you sit the unlit candle on. I got mine at Walmart, for around $5. |

Go for the Slatkin and Co. candles at Bath and Body Works. Those are my favorites! And they're cheaper than Yankee!

Yankee is by far the best. They last forever and smell so good! They are expensive but worth the money. If you have an outlet near you, you can find some good
deals.
Slatkin and Co is good but they don't last long at all. I've only burned the one I have a few times and it's already half gone. |

I have a Yankee candle that smells more unlit than lit.
