New Scents for Autumn

Beanpod's Spicettes
For this selection I went with the soy beads, which I love. In creating the beads, Beanpod has made it so easy to mix and match different scents and make it your own. Spicettes smelled, to me, like Froot Loops. I asked my little brother for his take on it and he replied with one word: "Pez." And he's right. It's very sweet and candy-like, but with a hint of spices; thus making it a great alternative to the typical pumpkin or cinnamon scent that often dominate the season. Not that there's anything wrong with that....

WoodWick's Harvest
Harvest I really liked because it was an amalgam of some of the best under-used seasonal scents. It had equal parts berry and orange with a touch cinnamon (think Cinnaburst Gum) and a nice hint of vanilla.

Colonial's Farmer's Market
I burned Farmer's Market as a votive and found that even in a small room it was very faint. Honestly, I don't always need to have a wicked strong scent from every candle, so I enjoyed the light aroma it gave off. It was an easy blend of apple, plum, and clove with a teeny bit of citrus.

Yankee's Autumn Fruit
I wanted this candle for looks. The deep, dark purple immediately caught my eye and it smelled like Old Fashioned Grape soda and fresh picked blackberries. It's very sweet and packs a wallop in the scent department. A definite winner.

I hope this helped get you all in the mood for the upcoming season and check back for more real soon!
