LINNEA® Layering: Create Your Signature Scent for Fall
by Ashley Steffes
As the leaves begin to change color in time for fall, we welcome the seasonal transition with open arms. The new season invites us to embrace cozy nights, crackling fires, and the abundance of the autumnal harvest. To capture the essence of fall in your home, why not explore LINNEA® Layering? By blending custom fragrances, you can create a unique scent experience that perfectly complements the season with just the strike of a match.
In recent years, custom scent profiles have gained popularity in the world of perfumery. At LINNEA®, we’re excited to introduce you to our bespoke approach: LINNEA® Layering, a personalized way to create a custom aroma for both you and your home.
What is LINNEA® Layering?
LINNEA® Layering is the art of combining fragrances to create a personalized, multi-dimensional scent experience. It’s not just about selecting individual products—it’s the act of burning two complementary candles together or pairing the continuous fragrance of a Reed Diffuser with the refreshing burst of an Aromatic Mist. Whether you’re creating a mood, celebrating a special occasion, or expressing your personal style, LINNEA® Layering allows you to craft a personalized fragrance blend that resonates with you and your guests.
Creating Your Fall Scent Profile
Fall fragrance trends are embracing unique notes like fig, vetiver, and leather, to be blended with traditional scents, capturing the essence of the season. To craft your ideal layered scent profile, start with rich, base notes like sandalwood, amber, or patchouli—these will form the foundation of your fragrance. Then, layer on lighter, complementary top or middle notes such as florals or spices to enhance and balance the fragrance, creating a more complex and inviting scent experience.
Our top LINNEA® Layering fragrance pairings for fall 2024:
Dahlia Large 2-wick Candle and Wood House Reed Diffuser
This pairing blends the warm, floral top notes of Peppered Rose and Red Currant from the Dahlia candle with the fresh brightness of Bergamot. Both the candle and the Wood House Reed Diffuser share rich, grounding Sandalwood base notes. Together, these scents create a sophisticated balance of vibrant florals and earthy woods.
Cardamom Large 2-wick Candle and Embers Large 2-wick Candle
The spices of Cardamom and Clove, found in the middle notes of both candles, bring the warmth and comfort of fall baking, filling your home with a rich, spiced aroma. Complemented by the grounding base notes of Cedarwood and Leather, this pairing brings to mind cozy evenings spent around the family hearth. Together, these scents create a warm, nostalgic atmosphere perfect for welcoming the autumn season.
Gather Large 2-wick Candle and Cashmere Petite 2-wick Candle
This pairing combines the spiced top note of Nutmeg from Gather with the soothing Chamomile from Cashmere. The two fragrances share the middle note, Amber, adding warmth and depth. Both the base notes of Vetiver and Patchouli provide an earthy, grounding foundation. Since the Cashmere candle is a petite size, this combination creates a balanced atmosphere that’s never overpowering.
