Fall is in full swing!  It's getting nippy outside and the air is dry and crisp with the promise of the holidays coming around the corner.  This is the time to start bundling up and getting cozy. Even the food of the season is full of comfort.  Pumpkins, apples, squash, pears abound and the wonderful smells of truffles, cinnamon and other warm spices arouse feelings of snuggly goodness.  I love the smells of Fall!  In this spirit, I want to share some of the most remarkable candle scents for this season, actually, probably the finest I have ever come across.  Ofcourse, they are all food-inspired and delicious!

 

 

I'm not a fan of strong, overwhelming synthetic scents, and there is none of that in this fabulous line of candles designed by Voluspa exclusively for celebrity Chef James Boyce.  Chef Boyce was nominated for a James Beard award and is known for masterfully infusing California influences into classic French cuisine.  Inspired by fresh locally grown produce, herbs and spices, this collection of luxe scented candles is created using all natural ingredients and made with organic wax from apricot seed oil in Southern California.

E.  Agraria diffusers are as exquisite to look at as they are to smell.  Their Bitter Orange is a classic Fall favourite year after year that just never gets old.  The Balsam, Riviera Pear and Mission Fig AirEssence scents (available in-store) are also perfect for the season.  I just can't choose between them. 

F.  Japanese Plum

G.  Winesap Apple Spice

 

Both men and women will enjoy these.  They are fabulous gifts for dinner parties or other occasions with their beautiful packaging, but most likely you will keep these for yourself to enjoy!
