As summer changes to autumn, cooler weather and shorter days follow in September’s steps. These fall months are also known as the harvest season. With winter arriving in a few months, many people take this time to try and find ways to make their lives cozier. These often include candles, potpourri, fall decor, and other pieces to create a rustic and welcoming environment. Houses often reflect the benefits of the harvest season, with the air being filled by the scent of seasonal treats and the bounties of the season.
Many of these elements contribute to the overall atmosphere through their aroma, and so some scents become commonly associated with the season. Here are some of those scents that you’ll likely get a whiff of as fall rolls around:
Vanilla: Mellow and Warm with a Powerful Impact
Vanilla is a very ubiquitous flavor that can be present in nearly all seasons. This scent often invokes a sense of inviting warmth due to its common nature and people’s familiarity with the smell. While not the most powerful of aromas, vanilla’s gentle and velvety profile means that it acts as a beautiful foundation for many other ingredients to work with.
Our Vanilla Cream perfume brings the best out of vanilla by making it a star while creating a synergy with spicier scents. The vanilla roots the jasmine and the pepper down to create a layered but light experience.
Salted Caramel: Savory and Sweet in Unison
A mix of salty and sweet, salted caramel is the union of two flavor profiles. The presence of salted caramel is a big sign that fall is here, as it shows up as its own treat or as a finishing element to many desserts. The salted caramel apple is arguably the most perfect example, as the salted caramel works with another celebrity of the season: the apple. These sweet treats are often alluringly displayed as a delightful temptation for anyone craving a crisp treat.
PureAmor’s Pistachio & Salted Caramel embodies the imagery that salted caramel invokes. Rich and nutty in its scent, it creates an olfactory experience that are as tempting as the luxurious treats themselves.
Cardamom: The Underrated Spice of Fall
Nutmeg, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves are often names that are thrown out when asked about fall spices. But a spice that is often overlooked but still plays an important role in creating that autumn atmosphere is cardamom. Holding a distinct profile that ranges from citrusy to smoky, cardamom plays a huge part in creating that recognizable fall flavor. In fact, cardamom is often featured in the ever popular pumpkin spice, which is the base ingredient for the well-loved pumpkin spice latte.
Santal Luxe captures the powers of cardamom by pairing it with iris and amber, creating a persistent and bold profile.
These are just some of the scents that play a role in making fall feel more exciting. Try incorporating some of these fragrances to make your season more cozy!
