What does your house smell like?

What do you use to make your house smell nice....

I usually use the yankee candle tarts in sugar cookie (I think this is the name) but trying to think of other ideas...

Thanks!

Re: What does your house smell like?

right now it smells like varnish - we just had our wood floors redone.

Otherwise it usually smells like nothing. I love candles but always forget to light them. I have reed diffusers in the bathrooms - they smell nice - vanilla.

I use the plug-in wall flowers from Bath & Body Works in the bedrooms, bathrooms and livingroom. In the kitchen, I like the scented candles from William Sonoma, especially Wasabi Green Tea scent, but one of my favorites right now is Vanilla Lime from Yankee Candle that my husband got me. I also like to burn incense in a sandlewood scent.

Mine currently smells like sweaty dog, teenage boy cleats and wet neoprene ipod case (DS uses it at the gym).

And yes, it's by Glade.Chat Icon

Seriously, I try to light a Cucumber Melon candle in the front room to combat the "natural" odors. It's the Yankee Candle line carried at Target.

I use tart warmers and tea light candles from Party Lite. They make my home smell delicious.

Bad subject.....charred noodles on the stove....two hours longer than they should have beenChat Icon Chat Icon

Im currently boiling a pot of cut up lemons and a pot of vinegar to remove this lingering odor...lets see if it works!

On a normal day.....I think its a mix of eucalyptus and vanilla.

I love garlic and put it in every thing.
what I do is ALWAYS boil some water and dump some rosemary or lavender in... smells wonderful.

Exactly. We both have kids and use them. You put them high up out of reach. They are rock salt with a taste deterent on them but I still keep them out of reach. For us it's safer than a candle or a plug-in and it makes the house smell wonderful!

I also have a reed diffuser in the bathroom that is some sort of lavendar fragrance - someone gave it to me.

I burn Glade candles all the time - usually in the Fresh Breeze collection.

I like the smell of clean Chat Icon
