Neil McLaren, Vaping expert comments – “Christmas scents are usually associated with nostalgic and heart-warming feelings and finding the right winter scent to have in your home is the ultimate cherry on top of a perfect Christmas. With families re-connecting and visitors coming and going, there is no better time to show off your favourite candle scent to create an alluring, attractive and cosy atmosphere. Choosing a smell that matches the season is traditionally how it’s done, and as we tend to associate certain winter smells such as cinnamon and nutmeg with wintertime, it’s no wonder that Christmas is the most popular time for households to upgrade their home scents.”
