Scents of Christmas
Certain scents are synonymous with Christmas and the festive period, the perfect pairing being orange and cinnamon, the warming scents of cinnamon spice and zesty orange make these two perfect seasonal partners. Cinnamon, with its richly evocative spicy fragrance is perfectly complimented and enhanced by the zingy aroma of fresh oranges. In Christmas past we have decorated our homes with oranges and cinnamon, they bring warmth and seasonal joy during the cold winter months. There are some great ways to fill your home with festive scents, including essential oils, homemade garlands, seasonal potpourri, clove studded oranges and scented candles. One idea is to simply pop all your favourite festive scents in a pan of simmering water and let the smell fill your home, this is a perfect trick when hosting Christmas drinks. Try cinnamon, orange rind curls, citrus fruit slices, star anise, cardamon, cloves, ginger and an apple. Once they have bubbled away, set the fruit slices aside and use them to make dried decorations. Dried fruit Christmas decorations smell amazing both while you make them and for weeks after and they look great too. Simply slice citrus fruits thinly and lay them out on an oven tray. You can press cloves into the segments for extra scent if you like. Bake them on a very low heat (75°C) for about two hours or once they are dry. Display them in a glass bowl, use to decorate your tree or make a hole in the middle of the slices and add them to a garland.
