Scented candles range widely in format and fragrance, and candlesdirect.com lists large jars, medium jars, tea lights, and votives side by side across its Yankee Candle and WoodWick lines, with the same fragrance names frequently recurring across more than one size. Looking at both brands together gives a clearer picture of how fragrance families repeat across sizes, which matters for anyone comparing formats rather than settling on a single large jar straight away.
Yankee Candle Large Jar Candles and Signature Collections
The Large Jar format remains the most recognisable Yankee Candle product, with candlesdirect.com listing a wide run of fragrances including Christmas Eve, Christmas Cookie, Sparkling Cinnamon, Clean Cotton, Cinnamon Stick, Black Cherry, Black Coconut, Midnight Jasmine, Lemon Lavender, Soft Blanket, Coconut Splash, Pink Sands, Fresh Cut Roses, Juicy Watermelon, Tangerine and Vanilla, and Dried Lavender and Oak, many of which also appear in the Medium Jar Candle, a size carrying a burn time of 65 to 90 hours. Alongside the standard Large Jar line sits the Signature Large Jar Candle collection, which includes fragrances such as Glistening Leaves, Summit Stargazing, Slopeside Spritz, and Santa On Skis, each built around a layered structure of top, mid, and base notes. Glistening Leaves, for instance, opens with grapefruit, eucalyptus, and Meyer lemon before settling into rose, jasmine, and oakmoss, finishing on amber, patchouli, and vanilla. These Signature Large Jars are described as reflecting a warm, relaxed sense of style, with a traditional design intended for everyday use rather than occasional display.
Medium and Signature Jar Options for Budget Shoppers
The Medium Jar Candle also carries its own named entries rather than simply repeating the Large Jar list, and Christmas Eve appears specifically as a Medium Jar fragrance built around notes of a warm hearth, sugared plums, and candied fruit. Named Medium Jar fragrances on candlesdirect.com extend to Warm Cashmere, Fluffy Towels, Wedding Day, Sage and Citrus, Red Raspberry, Cherry Blossom, Midsummers Night, Vanilla Lime, and Vanilla Cupcake, filling out the format beyond the names already noted at Large Jar size. This naming consistency means a fragrance tried in a smaller jar can later be matched to the same scent at Large Jar size. The Medium Jar Candle sits within the broader range alongside the Signature Large Jar line, giving shoppers more than one jar size to weigh scent against format.
WoodWick Ellipse and Crackle Flame Candles
Across candlesdirect.com, the WoodWick range spans Large, Medium, and Small Jar sizes, plus the Ellipse Jar shape, across fragrances including Fireside, Cinnamon Chai, Lavender and Cedar, White Teak, and Santal Myrrh, with the last four of those appearing specifically in the Large Jar size. The Fireside fragrance appears across the widest spread of formats, available as a Large Jar, an Ellipse Jar, a Medium Jar, and a Small Jar, which makes it a useful example of how one scent can be sampled at more than one size. WoodWick candles are generally known for a wick design that produces a crackling sound as they burn, and the Ellipse Jar shape offers that same format in a smaller footprint than the Large Jar.
Tea Lights and Smaller Formats as Entry Points
Tea lights represent one of the smallest formats carried on candlesdirect.com, with Yankee Candle Scented Tea Lights available in fragrances such as Black Cherry, Clean Cotton, and Vanilla Cupcake. Each tea light burns for 4 to 6 hours and sits in a signature clear plastic cup designed to float, with the wick safely extinguishing once the wax is consumed. Glass Votive Candles sit just above tea lights in format and are made from a natural soy wax blend, offered in fragrances including Lemon Lavender, Cinnamon Stick, Red Raspberry, Coconut Beach, Amber and Sandalwood, Ocean Air, Iced Berry Lemonade, Midsummers Night, Wild Orchid, and Sage and Citrus, among others shared with the jar lines. These smaller formats are described as a way to try a fragrance before committing to a larger jar.
Fragrance choice across these formats tends to cluster around a few recognisable families, and the list below highlights some of them as they appear across Yankee Candle and WoodWick.
- Clean Cotton appears as a Large Jar, a Medium Jar, a Glass Votive, and a Scented Tea Light, making it one of the most repeated fresh-linen style fragrances across formats.
- Black Cherry spans Large Jar, Medium Jar, Glass Votive, and Tea Light sizes, giving a fruit-forward option at several smaller formats.
- Fireside from WoodWick is available as a Large Jar, an Ellipse Jar, a Medium Jar, and a Small Jar, covering a woody, crackling-wick fragrance across the full size range.
- Cinnamon Stick appears as both a Large Jar and a Glass Votive, offering a warm spice fragrance without needing to commit to the largest jar size.
- Vanilla Cupcake is listed as a Medium Jar and a Scented Tea Light, pairing a bakery-style fragrance with two smaller formats.
Loyalty Points and Repeat Purchase Savings
candlesdirect.com operates a Loyalty Program through which points are earned on purchases, a detail confirmed on the site alongside its other service notes such as orders typically being shipped within 24 hours. The loyalty scheme applies across Yankee Candle orders, including items from the sale section, which the brand notes gets new candles added weekly. Earning points this way means repeat shoppers who return to the same fragrance families, whether at Large Jar or smaller sizes, accumulate value from purchases made over time rather than from a single transaction. This sits alongside the site’s other stated services, including secure payment acceptance for major credit cards and a customer service contact reachable by email.
Seasonal and Limited Edition Fragrance Ranges
Several of the Signature Large Jar fragrances listed on candlesdirect.com carry clear seasonal framing, such as Snowflake Cookie, described as a Christmas tradition with sugary pink icing notes, and Santa On Skis, built around mulled wine, clove bud, and vanilla. Slopeside Spritz and Summit Stargazing follow a similar winter theme, with notes of sparkling prosecco and candied violet respectively, positioning them as part of a seasonal rather than year-round fragrance set. These seasonal names sit within the same Signature Large Jar Candle line as the more permanent fragrances like Glistening Leaves, which leans toward an autumn profile of citrus, oakmoss, and patchouli. Because these seasonal scents are issued within the same jar format and line as standard fragrances, they are accessed in the same way as any other Large Jar, rather than through a separate collection.
Fragrance, not format, is what ultimately carries across the Yankee Candle and WoodWick ranges.
