Because fragrances are associated with memories, the scents we choose to fill our homes with, especially during the holidays, are just as important as tracking down the perfect gift or Christmas tree. Pine trees, sugar plums, vanilla, and cinnamon are just some of the yummy scents we associate with this time of year. And while it's always nice to find a pretty candle to evoke that holiday spirit, why not pick one that will *also* bring back all the nostalgic memories of Christmases past? Click through for our favorite quintessential scents of the season and get those feel-good aromas — and memories — wafting.
