We tried scented candles from Boots, Aldi, B&M, Jo Malone, Yankee Candle, Neom and one didn't live up to the hype We tested candles ranging from £3 to £50 in price and this was the verdict Updated Is there anything better than coming home, lighting a scented candle and settling in for the night? For many of us, it's the perfect end to the day but getting a good quality candle that lasts a while, has a scent that lingers and doesn't break the bank can be a difficult task. With life getting back to normal there's no doubt the usual stresses of everyday life will soon be back with a bang - and what better way to cure it than with a relaxing scented candle, perhaps while you're enjoying a bath or even just laying on the couch.
