Yankee Candle Midnight Jasmine

Yankee Candle began in 1969 in South Hadley, Massachusetts, when Michael Kittredge created his first scented candle from melted crayons as a gift for his mother. Since its humble beginnings, the brand has grown into a global leader in the home fragrance market, known for its extensive range of long-lasting scents and iconic glass jar designs.

Historically, the majority of Yankee Candle products are manufactured in the United States, specifically at their facilities in Massachusetts, although global distribution networks may involve international assembly for specific regions. The brand has undergone several ownership changes over the decades; it was first sold to a private equity firm before being acquired by Jarden Corporation. In 2016, Newell Brands acquired Jarden, making it the ultimate parent company. Today, Yankee Candle remains a cornerstone of Newell Brands' Home Fragrance segment.
