Favorite Fall Fragrances and Giveway!

I have to admit, I am a smell-a-holic. I love things that smell nicely, not overpowering or offensive. I grew up with a mother who burned more candles than anyone I know, I love lighting pretty candles throughout our home every night, even during the day. I have purchased a candle warmer and for $4.00, I think this is something everyone should have. Your candles will last for such a long time and it is a safe alternative to burning when you have little ones running around the house like I do.
I really don't burn alot of candles during the summer but once school starts something in me clicks and I am rummaging through my stash to find just the perfect scent to welcome my family home at night. Here are a few of my all time favorite fragrances. I have not purchased any candles yet this year, I am trying to burn up my stash that was left over from last year before I switched to my winter fragrances. My supply is running low, I think I need to make a run to Swan Creek! I can buy 18 candles for $20 and mix and match all I want.
What are your favorite fragrances this year? I am always wanting to try something new.
***I have had so many new visitors over the past few weeks, in honor of our new friendship, I am giving away a Glad*e Scented plug in with my favorite apple cinnamon scent refills, leave a comment or email me and I will have my lovely assistant draw the winner's name. I will leave it open until Wednesday night****



I was at a friends house a few years ago and her house smelled soooo good, I had to ask what that fragrance was and where it was coming from, she told me it was this. I love these apple cinnamon scented oil plug ins by Glad*e. Even Mark asks what smells so nice when I have these plugged in. It is a great way to add fragrance to your home without worrying about blowing out all of the candles before bedtime! I have these on all 3 levels of our home, it is a pleasant surprise when we go down to the basement and it smells yummy instead of basement-like!

My neighbor bought me a scentport for my birthday from Bath and B*dy Works. It uses little ports full of scented oils. I always love their pumpkin fragrances that they carry. They used to have a caramel apple that I loved but not any more. I want to try the new pumpkin caramel fragrance.

My favorite candles come from Swan Creek Candle Company. Usually the stores are located in a small downtown historic building and they also have an antique gallery inside. Any of their fall frangrances smell so good that I want to eat them! They are soybean candles and burn clean. So nice! I know you can purchase them online by visiting here. My favorite all time, all year scent is Mullbery and Mandarin.

How can you go wrong with Yank*ee Candles? I am so excited that they have brought back Apple Cider. I have a hard time with apple scented candles (read previous post)but this does not bother me at all and it has become a standard in our home during the fall. I think our all time favorite through the years has been the buttercream fragrance, it smells like I have been baking all day long! Right now I am burning a spiced pumpkin tart in my tart warmer and the house smells so yummy!
