pleasant smells from millions of candles

We have had more people over our house than less these past few weeks, which is a nice change. I am a lover of candles, and when I am home by myself  I usually light the large Yankee Candle jars (Mountain Lodge and Banana Nut Bread are my jams, love those smells so much). When people are visiting, I feel more inclined to try out the smaller, more boutique-type candles. Even though I received the candle pictured in December (part of a very sweet and thoughtful birthday gift), I still had yet to light it. It wasn't that I didn't like it...I was saving it in a sense (haha, get it).

I lit it a few weekends ago and have wanted to light it every day since. However, I feel like I should save the amazing smell it gives off and share it with others. It smells SO good. It was purchased from Anthropologie and they are still available. I also bought a Fig scented Calvin Klein candle duo last fall. I attempted to purchase an additional set last night because the two we keep next to our bed are running a bit short, but I could not believe what they sell for at full price ($35!). I purchased ours at a TJ Maxx in Newport and may need to accept the fact that these will be the first and the last Calvin Klein candles in our home, unless I have another run in at a TJ's. I am all for paying for a pleasant scent, but the candles are 3.47 ounces. I need more for $35.
