Greetings!

I was wondering, when you think of Fall/Autumn...what scents come to mind?

What scents remind you of Winter?

How about Summer and Spring?

What colors if any do you associate with the seasons?

:heartthro Thank You

Seasonal scents:

1. Musk - fallen leaves kind of have that pine-musk smell.

2. Smoke - from chimneys when it's going into winter.

3. Cotton Candy - for summer time fairs around here.

4. Kettle corn smell that sugary popcorn, buttery smell - summer time scents.

5. Apple pie and pumpkin pie smells for the fall.

6. SAGE for thanksigving! I love sage. In fact, sage and cranberry would be awesome.

7. Cloves and honey scents for tea....herbal tea with that scent reminds me of winter too.

8. Sugar cookie! For winter!

9. Melted snow - kind of reminds me of rain and rose mixed together very lightly.

10. Hot cocoa.

Does that help?

Some of them are odd I know...

For fall, spiced pumkins and apples. The sweet, musky smell of decaying leaves. Clove, cinnamon, allspice, and nutmeg. Dried flowers, and hay. Last, but not least, the crisp cool air.

I'll think of the rest later...

Winter - evergreen, peppermint, smoke from fireplaces, Bailey's Irish Creme

Spring - the smell of nature as everything comes to life

Summer - fresh cut grass, the smells of a baseball park, food cooking on grills

For fall I think of reds, yellows and brown. The scents that come to mind are pumpkin pie, warm bread, and musty leaves.

Winter bring to mind blues, whites, and purples. Scents include wet snow, firewood burning and coco.

Summer is greens and blues, and smell of flowers, and fur

and spring is yellows and greens, and smell of rain.

I agree with a lot of what's been posted. :thumbsup:

Pumpkin spice in the Fall, chimney smoke in the winter.

There's a fresh scent with Spring, perhaps from the rainfall. And of course cut grass in Summer!
