Autumn is the season of change. The trees are getting their beautiful shades of red, orange and yellow, while the days are getting shorter and the temperatures are dropping. Nature around us is getting ready for winter, and we are adapting too. This is the time when we seek the warmth and coziness indoors. And what better way to do that than by lighting a lovely scented candle?
Scented candles are not only a beautiful addition to your interior, they also bring a sense of peace and comfort. The right scent can evoke memories, amplify emotions and transform your home into a cozy autumn nest. But did you know that every time of year has its own signature scents?
In the fall, we are often drawn to scents that remind us of warmth and coziness. They reflect the change of season and enhance the feeling of coming home after a brisk fall walk. Below are some of the most popular fall scents that are often found in scented candles:
Spicy scents such as cinnamon and cloves
These scents immediately evoke a homely and warm feeling. Cinnamon makes us think of freshly baked apple pie, hot drinks and the crackling of a fire. Clove adds a deeper, almost nostalgic note. Together these scents create a warm embrace, perfect for autumn.
Autumnal fruits such as apple and pear
Fruity scents, such as apple and pear, bring a fresh yet warm aroma. Think of a fresh apple picking trip or baking a delicious pear pie. These scents give your home a fresh autumn atmosphere, but with a hint of sweetness.
Savory scents like pumpkin
Pumpkin is undoubtedly the scent of autumn. Whether it is pumpkin pie, pumpkin soup or the famous 'pumpkin spice', this scent immediately evokes the feeling of autumn festivals, Halloween and cozy evenings. Pumpkin scents often have a hint of vanilla, nutmeg and cinnamon, which makes them perfect for cozy autumn evenings.
The great thing about scented candles is that they do more than just make your home smell nice. They help you create the atmosphere that suits the season, a sense of security and comfort that we appreciate so much in the fall.
