The close of summer is always somewhat bittersweet. On one hand, less sun and days lying in the garden, on the other more cosy nights in with candles flickering while you bury down in your favourite throw. And if there's one fragrance that's bound to get us in the seasonal state of mind it's The White Company Autumn scent.
We're all about scenting a home, be it scents for calming spaces, scents for hallways or even scents for small kitchens, we're on it. And The White Company is basically synonymous with home fragrances that both smell and look good. Each year they launch the Autumn Collection, made up of candles, diffusers and oils to imbue your home with a delectable and evocative scent.
The range has recently once again gone live on the website, but consider this your warning as it inevitably sells out quickly when it gets released. So far the oils and some of the candles are already fully sold out online, so get moving if you want to try it for yourself. Here's why you'll want to.
Why we love The White Company Autumn range
So why is the Autumn range such a hit so consistently? Well, the short answer is that it smells amazing. The warm and fruity, just crisp and brightening scent is described by the brand as 'a gloriously bright and fruity scent inspired by afternoons spent picking fruits from the orchard beneath the dappled sunlight'.
Instead of yet another pumpkin-spiced range, this fragrance brings the more natural elements of the season to the forefront and lets the fruits and flowers of autumn do the talking.
And therein lies one of the other main reasons this scent is sought after. It's a scent that truly whisks you back to autumns gone by, walking on crunchy fallen leaves on one of those perfectly sunny but chilly days. So even if the weather doesn't end up giving us the autumn of our dreams, at least The White Company can try.
What else to buy from the Autumn range
As much as we love the centrepiece-worthy three-wick candle, it's far from the only way to experience autumnal scents from The White Company this year. Here are the other items we love.
We all know and love the botanical candles, and this one is infused with autumn leaves and apple slices. Dreamy.
Perfect for gifting (and, yes, this definitely means self-gifting, too), this set comes with a candle, a mini diffuser and a mini home spray.
It may not be the Autumn range (again speed is of the essence, my friend), but you can't go wrong with the woody and warm Fireside scent.
Good luck in snagging some of the limited The White Company Autumn home fragrance range this year!
