Pumpkin scent notes

Warm, creamy, and softly spiced.

Pumpkin in fragrance means pumpkin pie. The gourd itself smells faintly green, so the note is built from warm spices like cinnamon, nutmeg and clove over a creamy, buttery base.

A pumpkin note sits in the heart of a dessert blend, with cinnamon and clove around it and tonka and vanilla below. It is a fall staple for candles and wax melts. Spice and vanilla both affect color, so test light wax and soap before a large batch.
