YANKEE Candle has released its second-ever Scent of the Year for 2020, and this one comes in a limited edition jar.

The candle company is famous for its signature large jars, but now shoppers can get their hands on a cut glass textured version - but you’d better be quick.

The 2020 fragrance, called Awaken, follows Yankee’s first-ever Scent of the Year released in 2019, which was named One Together. 

Yankee said: “Awaken is designed to inspire us to experience the simple beauty of the everyday. 

“At its heart is a one-of-a-kind, crystalline mineral fragrance with grounding notes of driftwood and amber. 

“For this very limited-time release, Yankee Candle has crafted a cut-glass textured jar that's just as unique as this year's defining fragrance.”
