First favourite smell has got to be tangerines, that puts you in the mood for the start of the Christmas season. Next favourite has to be the smell of Pine, would love a real Christmas Tree but as we fly back to England for half the holidays it wouldn't last so I have to make do with oil, one of the most common Christmas smells over her in Germany is cinnamon its used in most Christmas baking, unfortunatly my husband hates it! Will have to sticj to pine ! Roll on Christmas Time :O) Sheila
