Ooh, that smells so earth-friendly …

So, you say, you sell green candles? Well, now you can also sell “green” candles.

Midwest of Cannon Falls has introduced Go Green by Colonial Candle, purportedly the first 100-percent recycled wax candle collection that is produced in a recognized “green” facility.

The Go Green collection also features recycled glass containers as part of the mix, which includes four nature-inspired fragrances:

• Rain — featuring fragrance notes of green, water, flower, fruit, musk and amber.
• Bamboo — featuring fragrance notes of green tea, lime, cassis, verbena, bamboo and woods.
• Clean — featuring fragrance notes of crisp florals, fruit and amber.
• Fresh — featuring fragrance notes of water, citrus, florals and sandalwood.

Given that I received news of aforementioned candles via a press release and not through a product sample, I can’t personally vouch for all of those fragrance notes. Heck, I can’t even vouch for what a fragrance note is. But I do suspect that all these pro-environment candle products smell swell.

Never seen a scented candle that does not smelllike a flame while burning. Even YAnkee Candles do not smell like the frgrance on the label when burning.

Hi Yale:

As the internet marketing manager at Colonial, I would be excited to get you a sample of the new scents. Contact me to indicate where I can send them!

Thanks for the mention of our brand.
