These are a few of my Favorite Scents



These are a Few of my Favorite Scents:
One of the many reasons why I love the Fall


There are many reasons why I'm in love with the Fall. The crisp cool air, the red, yellow, and orange changing colors of the foliage and the crunching sound of fallen leaves under my feet, combined with the wicked fun of Halloween and the joy and family togetherness Thanksgiving brings and I can't forget about fall boots and cozy sweaters. All of this is and more are what make this my favorite season. While I associate all of these things with Fall, one thing I didn't mention which I love most of all are the smells and aromas of the season. Pumpkin, delicious spices and the smell of burning from the fireplace all come to mind and it's no surprise to those close to me that once the weather starts getting cooler I start to want scented candles lit ALL THE TIME. So needless to say, I go through quite a few candles in the Fall and I wanted to share a few of my new favorite scents.
