As a part-time employee of Yankee Candle Company...

Baaaaaaahhhhh. As someone who has been subjected to an endless succession of girly scents at the hands of his wife, I'd like to know when Yankee Candle will have some scents that are a touch more masculine? Where's the leather-scented tart? Beer scent? The one that smells like warm motor oil?

It's discrimination, I say. Baking cookies - bleh. Lavender - blah. Roses - feh. I want scents for me... ;)

LOL General_Re, you obviously don't shop for Yankee Candles. They DO have a leather scent, as well as one called "campfire" that smells like campfire smoke. They do not, however, market a burning oil one, but I bet it's only a matter of time before they come out with a "NASCAR" scent. Smells of gasoline and spent tires. hehehe

May I suggest Mountain Lake or Midsummer's Night (this one smells like a man's cologne and the wax color is black). Oh, by the way, I did see a leather fragrance car jar (air freshener) believe it or not.

If they'd make one that smells like Hoppes' No. 9, I'd buy it. They could call it 'Hunting Season', or some such.
