Just A Few Lovely Fall Fragrances

If you like foodie candle scents, this is your jam (hee): It smells like baking cookies in the forest.

The Taroudant candle pays tribute to the spirit of the Berber women who work to harvest the oils used by eco-friendly beauty brand Kahina, and comes in a gorgeous, reusable handmade ceramic jar. The scent has a Neroli base, with Laurel, Basil and Rosemary, and is lovely and wintry, with a slightly herbal element that freshens it up.

The best way I can describe this scent is to say “expensive incense.” (Like, as opposed to the $2 stuff you buy in bulk on the street in NYC.) It’s musky, with top notes of suede and saffron, but lightened up by a touch of vetiver.

If you like your home scents a touch on the fruity side, you’ll love this. The top notes are fig, vetiver and cedar, so it’s like a bright summer candle that’s put on a cozy winter coat.

If you like amber scents (as I do), buy this immediately. It’s woodsy and sexy, with a touch of vanilla. I would like my entire life (and self) to smell like this candle.

I’ve written before about how to scent each room of your house…and for winter, this is the scent for your kitchen. Tea, lemongrass, citrus –  but made warm and cozy with the addition of amber.

Aaaaand here is this year’s Christmas Candle. This sweet fern, blackberry and white oak-scented candle is like the holiday season in smell form. (I know, I have a way with words.)
