Great Escape

-- Home Accents Today, 1/1/2009 12:00:00 AM

Candle and home fragrance offerings invite the olfactory sense on an aromatic passage, spanning from lavish floral blends to juicy tropical fruits. A few whiffs of these offerings evoke a stroll through a garden in spring's full bloom or enjoying a fresh citrus fruit on a hot summer's day. Such cheerful scents would not be complete without color-drenched packaging to match. — Lindsey Strader
