SPRING SCENTING

It’s as if Winter has clung on until the bitter end. Just over a week ago my garden was cloaked in a thick blanket of snow. Then came the frost and I was back to scraping ice from the car windscreen. Today, the first day of Spring, and just like that, it’s a whole different story – the Winter chill has been replaced by the gentle warmth of the sun, which the Spring buds are revelling in after being teased and then frozen over the previous few weeks!

To me, Spring is all about reinvigoration, a renewed energy, anticipation of the warmer and longer days ahead, the planning of garden soirees with friends (in the hope it doesn’t rain!); and with that comes the desire for a change in home fragrance to reflect the change in season.

The beauty of MIXMY Primary Candle fragrances is that they can be combined to create new fragrance combinations, or Scent Destinations™. No need to go out and buy new scented candles. Just combine different Primary Candles to create whole new fragrances. No more wasted, half burnt candles because they no longer suit the season or your mood!

Simply choose the Primary Candles you wish to burn together based on the fragrance notes you love, and enjoy the combined fragrance; OR, choose the Scent Destination™ you wish to create and burn the appropriate two Primary Candles to achieve that Scent Destination™.

Soft floral, fresh green, vibrant and joyously mellow fragrances all perfectly reflect the mood of the Spring season; so I’ll be pairing the following Primary Candles to create three very different Scent Destinations™ this season:

I’m not a natural in front of the camera, so bear with me and my freestyle talk to camera; and excuse the hole in the ceiling - which I only realised was in the shot after I’d managed to do this in one take, and there was no way I was doing it again 🫣

In short, this is a big thank you to John Lewis for supporting the brand and the concept; to the John Lewis staff for looking after me; and most importantly, to all of my new John Lewis customers - thank you for visiting the MIXMY counter and buying into MIXMY’s different take on home fragrance 😊; and finally, a huge thank you to all of my beautiful friends and family who have either stumbled across me as they’ve been out shopping, or made the trip to Leeds especially to see me. You have no idea what a boost you’ve given me during the long days; and a particular thank you to Rachel, Mark and Alex for manning the counter so I could nip off and have a quick break 🥰.
The only home fragrance brand that gives you a fragrance diffuser that, when finished, can be refilled as a diffuser OR a scented candle depending on how you feel - simply mix and match as you please!
Well last night was fun!
I ran ‘An Evening of Scent Discovery’ at the beautiful home of Rachel, one of my wonderful MIXMY customers. Rachel and her guests got to immerse themselves in the world of fragrance as they explored the MIXMY collection of Primary Fragrances; and got to discover the magic of scent layering as they got hands-on with our fragrance oils, combining different fragrances to create their own Scent Destinations™.

From the hugely positive feedback I received, I’d say the evening was a success 😊.

Thank you to Rachel for hosting the evening and to the wonderful group of ladies who attended. I thoroughly enjoyed meeting you all.

If you’re interested in hosting your own ‘Evening of Scent Discovery’, DM me for details.
