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 Today, the first day of Spring, and just like that, it’s a whole different story – the Winter chill has been replaced by the gentle warmth of the sun, which the Spring buds are revelling in after being teased and then frozen over the previous few weeks!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:

Recommendations mean so much 😊. Thank you @katwills21 🤍
I wish the transformation was as easy as that! 

I messed up and ran out of paint, and as colour-matched paint isn’t readily available in the middle of the countryside, I had to make a 1 1/2 hour round trip to get some more so I could finish the final wall 🥴, which meant I finished later than planned, and only just managed to return the hire van with 2 minutes to spare 😮‍💨.

Transformation finally complete!

If you’re planning on coming to Bramham Horse Trials, come find me in the Country Living Pavilion.
And that’s a wrap! 
I’m not going to lie, it’s been a full on 7 days at John Lewis, Leeds, but I’ve had such an incredible time. 

The MIXMY ‘combine to create’ home fragrance concept has gone down an absolute storm 🙌. 

We’re now all packed up and about to get ready for our next pop-up… but before I get to work on that one, I’d like to welcome all of my new John Lewis customers - I’ve loved chatting with every single one of you 😊.
Enjoy discovering MIXMY Scents x
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 🥰.
