[This is not a sponsored post - all statements are my opinions.]

One thing I really miss about the US are all the wonderful scented candles, reed diffusers and plug ins from Yankee Candle and Bath & Body Works. We do have all those here in Germany, just not in all those wonderful scents we got so used to in the US from those 2 companies. Or so I thought. 

On Saturday we found this cute new store filled with the most gorgeous gifts and home decorations. Right upon entering through the main entrance this familiar scent rose up into my nose, I turned my head instantly to see a huge corner shelf filled to the brim with Yankee Candle merchandise. And right there in the middle of it, I found what I had so wanted to have, a plug in!

I had  wisely brought candles and refills with me when we moved, but I hadn't brought a plug, because it wouldn't fit here. When I figured out that I wouldn't be able to get one, I was very disappointed. So, you might be able to imagine the smile on my face when I saw them. Of course I brought one home (it was the last one, she will re-order them for me) and stocked up on tarts and samplers and got two jar candles.

I cannot wait to plug in those amazing fall scents once it's the season. For now I got clean cotton and beach and sand, two of my absolute favorite scents. What is your favorite scent? Do you have those plug ins or scented candles? Or do you think I am crazy? haha

Happy Monday.
Hugs,

Haha, that's really cool! I love when I stumble upon a secret treasure like this.

Uhh I don't think I know any of the scents but I usually like either something citrusy or a cotton/linen fresh smell.
