Bromantically Scented Candles

Yankee ‘Man Candles’ Make Fragrances Masculine

— May 18, 2012 — Art & Design
Having Yankee Man Candles in your house will keep your atmosphere romantic and your masculinity intact. Although the famous candle brand boasts delicate scents like 'First Kiss' and 'Meyer Lemon,' they have introduced a more rugged collection of wicked winners. The names of the candles in this collection are sure to pique the interest of the bro in your life.

With scents like 'Riding Mower,' 'First Down' and '2X4,' this collection will inject a manly aroma into the air while eliminating other “manly” odors. These candles will make the rooms in your house smell like freshly cut grass, newly cut wood and sawdust, or, like your very own “man cave.” Each candle has an enticing blend of spices, woods and the signature macho muskiness.
