Autumn’s Awakening

Autumn has a personality of its own. It’s characterized by crisp air and pumpkin-flavored EVERYTHING! You aren't able to think of fall without thinking of warm spices and falling leaves.

Autumn-esque fragrances fall into 4 categories: spicy, sweet, fruity, and woody.
Spicy Fall Notes: Think warm, zesty, and aromatic. Spicy fall scents add complexity, depth, and dimension to any fragrance. The following are some of the best spicy fall aromas.

Cinnamon
If cozy had a scent, it would be cinnamon. The beautiful balance of warmth and sharpness makes this fragrance note perfectly complex, even on its own. It pairs beautifully with sweet and fruity notes.
