Vanilla & Chocolate
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Definitely smells of vanilla and sugar but also the chocolate gives it an interesting twist.

Sweet indulgent smell
This scent is always a great staple for someone who is looking for a sweet indulgent scent. The smell of vanilla is in the forefront, then a subtle smell of cake. Definitely recommend.

Not worth it
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I can not smell these at all like not enough scent comes out of these little things. So disappointing because it’s my fav scent.

Hi! Thank you for your feedback on the Vanilla Cupcake Car Jar® Ultimate. We're sorry to hear that you're not getting enough scent from it. Your favorite scent should be enjoyable and noticeable. We recommend checking if the Car Jar® is placed in an area with good air circulation in your car, as this can help distribute the scent more effectively. If the issue persists, you might want to try a different product from the same scent line, such as a vent clip or Sidekick Diffusers, which might provide a stronger fragrance. If you continue to experience issues, please don't hesitate to get in touch with us via the website: https://www.yankeecandle.com/customer-service/contact-form, and we can look into it further or provide additional assistance. Thank you!

Not good
I am not a fan of vanilla scented. The packaging is very cute and the scent is okay for me. I hang it in the closet but to be honest I don’t smell anything at all.

Perfect for holiday
appreciate the balance between fragrance intensity and burn time, making it a great value, • Scent Throw: Medium to strong; the fragrance fills a room effectively without being overpowering.

Nostalgic
This car air freshener is my all time favorite. The scent is that perfect buttery cupcake smell that reminds me of childhood. Yankee Candle is always having a sale so you know that you’re gonna get a good deal. I would buy this product a million times over.
