And Your Fall Scent Personality Is...
Now count your answers. Which letter did you choose most often?
Mostly A: You’re an Apple Orchard Person
Your fall vibe: Fresh, classic, and naturally sweet
Your personality scent: Apple Orchard Harvest
You love the simple pleasures of fall: Crisp mornings, changing leaves, fresh-picked apples. Apple Orchard Harvest captures that feeling with Washington Honeycrisp apple, cinnamon, and birch. It’s fresh and fruity with just enough autumn spice to make it feel unmistakably like fall.
Mostly B: You’re the Cozy Classic
Your fall vibe: Calm, cozy, and classic
Your personality scent: Vanilla Pumpkin Spice
Just like you, this scent is the right balance of sweet and spicy. If your ideal fall involves warm drinks, soft blankets, and making your home as cozy as possible, Vanilla Pumpkin Spice is right up your alley. Pumpkin chai spice, nutmeg, and vanilla sweet cream come together for that familiar and comforting aroma that instantly says, “It’s fall.”
Mostly C: You’re the Pacific Northwest Explorer
Your fall vibe: Outdoorsy, adventurous, and unmistakably Northwest
Your personality scent: Trails of Mount Spokane
You’d rather experience fall outside than watch it through a window! Trails of Mount Spokane brings together huckleberries, Ponderosa pine, and viola flowers to capture the surprising combination of mountain greenery and sweetness you’ll find along the trails. It’s woodsy without being overwhelmingly “pine” and fresh without feeling too light.
Mostly D: You’re a Coffee & Cozy Flannel Person
Your fall vibe: Warm, relaxed, and caffeinated
Your personality scent: Northwest Coffee & Cozy Flannel
Your perfect fall morning starts with coffee, and you're not interested in pretending otherwise. Northwest Coffee and Cozy Flannel combines dark-roasted coffee, cardamom spice, and frothy vanilla cream for a rich, comforting fragrance inspired by Northwest coffee culture. It's the scent equivalent to your favorite coffee shop, your coziest flannel, and a slow morning with nowhere you need to be.
Mostly E: You’re the Rustic Cabin Type
Your fall vibe: Confident, peaceful, and effortlessly sophisticated
Your personality scent: Sandpoint Mahogany Tobacco
You like your fall with a little sophistication. Sandpoint Mahogany Tobacco takes inspiration from the North Idaho town of Sandpoint, where rustic beauty and a touch of luxury come together. Rich mahogany wood, tobacco leaf, and caramel spice create a warm, deeper fragrance that's cozy without being overly sweet. If you're drawn to woodsy scents but want something a little more refined, this one may be your match.
Mostly F: You’re a Fall Traditions Fan
Your fall vibe: Playful, nostalgic, and always ready for a fall treat
Your personality scent: Pumpkin Donuts on Green Bluff
Pumpkin patches. Farm stands. Crisp air. You don't just like fall, you LOVE fall. Pumpkin Donuts on Green Bluff captures one of the most beloved fall indulgences with donut batter, spiced pumpkin puree, sugar, and ground cinnamon. It's sweet, nostalgic, and downright delicious to the senses.
What If You Can’t Pick Just One?
We get it. Fall personalities are complicated.
Maybe you’re part pumpkin spice traditionalist and part Pacific Northwest adventurer. Or maybe you’re equally happy with a coffee in hand and hiking boots on your feet. No need to fret. You can always get different scents for different spaces!

So whether you're creating a cozy living room, bringing autumn into your office, or making your car smell like fall, there's more than one way to enjoy your fragrance.
