Fall is finally in the air at my house, and I’m gearing up for my favorite season by burning some of my favorite candles. Last year when I was introduced to River City Candles I fell head over heels in love with all of her scented candles. When Kathleen reached out to me again about collaborating on a blog post for Fall? It took me about .24 seconds for me to whip out a response to that email. Y’all NEED to know about these candles!
When it comes to scented things, I am not a floral lover at all. I much prefer the fall scents, like the ones that make your mouth drool when you walk past Cindy’s Cinnamon Rolls in the mall. Think homemade vanilla ice cream, gooey cinnamon buns, pecan pie, caramel apple, and toasted marshmallowy kind of scents. Those top my favorite scent list way beyond anything floral scented.
I told Kathleen to surprise me with her selection, but keep all that above in mind. A few weeks later, I got this giant box in the mail, filled with all these candles! WOW! I had no idea she was going to send me so many! She hit the nail right on the head with all of the scents of the season she sent me. Vintage Pumpkin? Yes, please. I love pumpkin spiced EVERYTHING. Especially my candles.
Brandied Pear? Oh man, this one smells delicious! It’s sweet and mellow all at the same time.
Williamsburg was one of my favorites that she sent over for my last post. And yep, it is still one of my favorites! It reminds me of walking into one of those warm shoppes in Williamsburg filled with goodies that makes you want to stop and just breath it all in.
But, hands down, my new favorite scent is this Un Café candle. Oh my goodness. If you are someone who loves the smell of Starbucks, this is the candle for you. It is DELICOUS. I don’t even like coffee, but I love the smell of it. This is the perfect coffee scented candle!

I’m burning a pumpkin scented candle right now!!! It’s my favorite fall scent. Christmas I go for cinnamon smells and during spring and summer, I go for the citrus smell.
would love to have my whole house smell of pumpkin and spice and everything nice!
Wow ! What a great gift idea.
Love fall candles!
I love pumpkin spice the most. I also love caramel apple, spiced pear, & cinnamon scents!
Please enter my chance to win the candles. I love sweet and coffee like candles. Thank you.
Love the look of these candles, I’m sure they smell just as great! My favorite scents are warm like cashmere and amber. Always makes the home feel so cozy and inviting. 🙂
Williamsburg sounds wonderful,
I love candles, especially ones for fall. I can’t wait to try these out!
Love love love candles! My favorite is hazelnut. Vintage Pumpkin and Old Chimney sound great!
It’s Fall, so I think Pumpkin
I love pumpkin spice candle scents.
Great giveaway, thanks so much.
I’ve been using the scentsy system BUT I love candles of all types. I just haven’t found one that I really like the scents in. Anything that smells like you’ve been cooking in the house is what I really enjoy. Pecan pie sounds yummy since I love me some pecan pie.
I’m like you. I do not care for floral or perfume-y candles, but instead love the food smeils – cinnamon bun, pumpkin pie, etc. I have tried to curb my candle buying lately though. Seems I ended up hoarding them all. 🙂
My favorite candle scents are the the spicy fall ones like cinnamon and pumpkin!
Nothing says home to me more than waking through the front door to the warm and cozy scent of cinnamon. And coffee. It’s perfect this time of year. Thanks for introducing me to these candles.
Smiles,

What good timing. I am in need of some new candles. I just ordered some samples and the lavender. can’t wait to try them.

I love the idea of a coffee scent. Keep up the good work.
Kentucky Vanilla Bourbon or Pecan Pie sounds wonderful!

My favorite candle scents are anything that smells like nature or anything that I would bake in my oven. For example I know I would love the River City candle scents un café, vintage pumpkin or brandied pear. They all sound like wonderful scents to make my home smell wonderful and inviting.
