TTT: Matching Yankee Candle Scents to Books

Top Ten Tuesday: 

Matching Yankee Candle Scents to Books

Today's prompt asks us to name a candle scent that comes to mind when thinking of a particular book. I extended the prompt to a specific candle company, Yankee Candle Co., and I did the opposite. When I looked at the names of their candles I chose books that came to mind. 

Please note, I have no idea what these candles actually smell like, I've sniffed none of them. Some of my choices are based solely on titles. For example, Cider House Rules by Irving and the Yankee Candle name "Ciderhouse" were an obvious pairing. Others were selected based on what I know of the plot. For example, in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban the characters visit an apothecary in Diagon Alley. For more Yankee Candle ideas, check out their website: Yankee Candle Co. They have such creative names for their candles.

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban by JK Rowling -- Yankee Candle scent: "Apothecary Potions."

The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon -- Yankee Candle scent: "Phantom Bookshop."

Isola by Allegra Goodman -- Yankee Candle scent: "Ocean Air."

"A Midsummer Night's Dream" by William Shakespeare -- Yankee Candle scent: "Midsummer's Night."
