Yankee Candle Mini Haul

                           

Market Blossoms

 Florals are usually not my first choice of scent but it is I found this to be a lovely fresh scent perfect for spring time. It has a beautiful light floral fragrance with a hint of sweetness. 

Fragrance notes

Top: Peonies

Mid: Fresh cut roses

Base: Sweet vanilla

Bakery Air

This one is my favourite out of the trio. I love sweet fragrances and this really does a great job of recreating the scent of a bakery, think creamy butter swirled with vanilla, chopped pecans and cinnamon all baking in the oven...yum!

Fragrance notes

Top: Creamy butter, maple extract

Mid: Chopped pecans, ground cinnamon, crushed clove

Base: Crystallized sugar, vanilla

Catching Rays

I am enjoying how fresh this candle makes a room smell, it's a mix of citrus and relaxing amber. I think the scent is a lot like clean cotton and not as 'beachy' as the photo on the jar would suggest.

Fragrance notes

Top: Sharp orange zest

Mid: Golden amber

Base: Sea air

10 Things to do this Easter Weekend

               

1. Freshen up your home with fresh flowers. Bluebells, Daffodils and Peonies are now in season!

2. Ditch the spiced, winter fragrance candles and treat yourself to a fragrance update with fresh floral/ fruity scents. 

3. Cosy up on the sofa and binge watch some of your favourite films or why not start watching that TV series you haven't had the time to watch yet. 

4. Spring clean your wardrobe! Pack away any heavy winter coats and jumpers and swap them with brighter and lighter alternatives.

5. Eat ALL the chocolate Easter eggs!

6. Catch up with a friend over coffee and spend time with family.

7. Bake some Easter treats. These look super cute and yum!

8. Treat yourself to a Lush pamper evening using their new Easter range. My favourite is the 'Fluffy Egg' bath bomb, it smells good enough to eat!

9. Start reading a new book! I've just started reading Matt Haigs new novel 'Reasons to Stay Alive' which I'm really enjoying so far. 

10. Do some online shopping- a lot of places do Easter sales over the bank hoilday weekend. 

What are your plans this Easter weekend?
