SOUTH DEERFIELD, Mass., April 10, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The Yankee Candle Company, Inc., part of the Newell Brands portfolio and the leader in home fragrance, announces the creation of a new, limited-edition collection with the iconic bag and luggage lifestyle brand, Vera Bradley. Just in time for Mother's Day celebrations, the unique collection will launch on April 10^th and invite families to give the gift of charming floral patterns and true-to-life fragrances to a loved one.

"This collaboration between two iconic, heritage brands felt like the perfect tie-in for spring and Mother's Day gifting," said Michelle Favaloro, Vice President of Home Fragrance and Wellness at Newell Brands. "The pairing of the floral pattern and fan-favorite fragrances make this a great gift for yourself or someone you love."

We're proud to partner with another iconic American heritage brand that shares our entrepreneurial spirit, commitment to quality, and passion for creating beautiful solutions," noted Jennifer Bova, Vice President of Marketing for Vera Bradley.

The collection design was inspired by Vera Bradley's exclusive Sunlit Garden Sage pattern and includes a new Yankee Candle® fragrance specific to this collection for consumers to enjoy, featuring aromas inspired by scents of field-grown lavender, blooming rose, and fresh sage.

The full collection includes:

• Lavender & Sage 3-Wick Candle: An uplifting floral fragrance that captures the inspiring scents of field-grown lavender, blooming rose, and fresh sage.
• Pink Sands 3-Wick Candle: It's an exotic island escape in the beautiful mix of bright citrus, sweet florals, and spicy vanilla.
• ScentPlug Base + Refill: This limited-edition diffuser comes in an hourglass shape and is printed with Vera Bradley's Sunlit Garden Sage — a playful, floral pattern that makes a beautiful pair with our Lavender & Sage fragrance refill.  
• Tote bag: Treat yourself — or someone you love — to our stylish, perfectly sized tote in Vera Bradley's Sunlit Garden Sage pattern. This will be included as a gift with purchase.

Celebrate Mother's Day with a ScentPlug Base for $11.99 (USD), ScentPlug Refill for $7.50 (USD), or a single 3-Wick Candle for $26.50 (USD) at YankeeCandle.com and select retailers on April 10^th. The tote bag will be included as a gift with purchase.
