Target's Black Amber Candle: What Happened To The Scent?

Target recalled nearly five million of its exclusive Threshold Glass Jar candles due to laceration and burn hazards. The recall, announced on May 18, 2023, was due to the candle jar's tendency to crack or break during use, which could result in consumers cutting or burning themselves. Six injuries were reported, including lacerations and severe burns. The recall affects specific models of the candle, including the 14 oz Lidded Amber Glass Jar Crackling Wooden 3-Wick Coconut and Honey Candle.
