Vibes are assessed from the moment a person enters a room. With this in mind, it can be incredibly simple to set yourself, and your vibe, up for success with scent! Whether you’re looking to find your home’s signature scent or looking to keep your place smelling fresh, candles are the way to go. I sort of call myself a candle junkie because I usually have one burning in every room of my place. My candle obsession started as an innocent interest but has progressed well beyond my control. You can never have enough candles, right?
