Gonna wait for a further verdict before I invest in my fancy candles stocks0 -
I'm a bit disappointed with it too
Got the pomegranate one as well and to be honest it just smells a bit like 'burning oil' if that makes sense? Sooty I suppose. Also I only got it last week and it's burnt more than halfway down already. I have it in the kitchen and only light it for maybe an hour in the evening to get rid of the dinner smell.
The last few times I've bought candles, it's been the Tuscany ones in Homestore. Very similar to the Yankee ones and €12. I'll be sticking with those I think.0 -

I picked up the 'no.1' Lime basil & mandarin candle yesterday - smells beautiful in the jar, but when lit the fragrance is very subtle.
I have never tried the Jo Malone candles....so not sure how the scent strength compares (although I'd hope for 65euro, the candle would be quite fragrant :pac:).
I also picked up the 0% Greek Yogurt yesterday following recommendations on this thread. Just wondering, how do people usually eat this? Solo...or with fruit,etc.? Any recommendations, please fire them my way. 0 -

I love Greek Yogurt with a drizzle of honey and some walnuts or other nuts on top.0 -

We get through so much Greek yoghurt here. Mashed banana sweetens it if you're serving to a child and want to avoid honey, berries nuts honey etc all great.
I also stir it through porridge with milk and let sit overnight. Or if I'm making carrot cake porridge I stick a blob on for a nice tang.
Also lovely savoury. With chives and grated cheddar on top of a baked potato. As a dip for wedges (with some chilli sauce stirred through). With cucumber and mint on the side of a spicy curry or with nachos, salsa and jalapeños.0 -

I eat them in a toasted Pitta with the Red Pepper Hummus and crunchy salad...
The Falafel (I get the Mediterranean one, haven't tried the Morrocan), served the same, but with the plain or Caramelised Onion Hummus, is also gorgeous 0 -
