Smell Like Home For The Holidays by Luckyscent {Shopping Tips} {Holiday Gift Ideas}
From the niche perfumery Luckyscent and in particular the lovely Michelyn Camen comes the idea of a selection of fragrances and candles that was especially put together for those of us who won't be able to share the joys of the holidays with our families. A fragrance can be like a presence and so these carefully chosen aromas will fill you with memories or prepare for new ones.
I don't know about you but after perusing their selection I couldn't help but think that these would be great choices to use in the period prior to the holidays in order to make these last longer than a couple of days and prepare us for the spirit of the season. I especially envision myself starting to burn holiday-themed candles in the period of the Advent...
Geisha Marron by Aroma M, a new twist to chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Comme des Garcons’ Sticky Cake puts a new spin on the tired old fruitcake, with notes of almond, honey, dates, pistachio and brown sugar....
