Which scent suits autumn and winter?

For autumn and winter, a warm scent suits best: Reposea, with vanilla, caramel and musk, or the woody Invigorea, with amber, sandalwood and cedar. Keep Harmonea, fresh with bergamot and citrus, for the moments when you want fresh air instead, such as the kitchen after cooking. As the days grow shorter, everything moves indoors: the lamp goes on earlier, the jumper comes out of the wardrobe, and a warm, full scent makes a dark evening cosier at once. Below you will read which line suits when.

Why scent belongs to the season

In summer you want fresh, airy scents that throw the windows open. In autumn and winter it is the opposite: warmth, depth and comfort. A scent that wraps around a room matches the feeling of being inside while it is bleak out. You do not have to change your whole home, one well-chosen scent sets the tone straight away.

Reposea, warm and enveloping for cold evenings

For the long evenings, Reposea is the most obvious choice. This line opens with vanilla, has a heart of vanilla and caramel, and a base of musk and wood. Warm, soft and enveloping, exactly the feeling of a blanket on the sofa. Light the candle as soon as it goes dark and let the room fill slowly.

Invigorea, woody and fiery for the dark months

If you like something fuller, Invigorea is made for this season. The line is warm and woody, with amber and sandalwood at the top, pine, cedar and balsam in the heart, and a base of sandalwood, patchouli and amber. It is the scent equivalent of a fireplace: warm, resinous and full of character. The reed diffuser spreads the scent continuously, without a flame, which is welcome on cold days when you do not want to keep lighting a candle. Want to know more? Read the Invigorea scent story.

Harmonea, a fresh note among the heavier scents

Not every winter day calls for heavy and warm. Sometimes you want fresh air instead, in the kitchen after cooking, say, or the bathroom in the morning. That is where Harmonea fits: bergamot and citrus at the top, a floral heart of jasmine and rose, and a green base of moss and cedarwood. A room spray from this line gives a fresh note in a single motion, even in the middle of winter.

A set to open the season with

Once you know which line it will be, a gift set is a lovely way to begin. Every set is built around the scented candle, in Harmonea or Reposea. It brings several sizes of the same scent into your home at once, or turns scent into a gift for someone who also prefers the cold season indoors. There is no Invigorea set; for Invigorea you start with the 250 ml Invigorea reed diffuser. Whatever you choose, the right scent makes the dark season a good deal warmer.
