Scent Notes
Top Notes (Pear, Apple, Citrus Leaves):
Bright, crisp pear with a hint of orchard apple and the green sparkle of citrus leaves.
Middle Notes (Cardamom, Peppermint, Sugar):
Warm spice meets a cool, refreshing lift. Cardamom brings coziness, peppermint adds a balancing edge, and sugar softens it with a subtle sweetness.
Base Notes (Chestnut, Vanilla, Woods):
A nutty, roasted chestnut warmth anchored by creamy vanilla and warm woods for a soft finish.
Inspiration
Do you think these pears are Bosc or Bartlett? Who cares, it’s delicious. Forget apple pie. This is poached pear drizzled in syrup, dusted with spice, and served with crème fraîche and garnished with a mint leaf. Sweet, nutty, and fresh with a sunny-fall-day feel. The perfect scent for easing into the season when you’re not ready for full-on pumpkin spice or apple pie. Light it for golden hour hosting, to celebrate a freshly cleaned space, or whenever you want fall to feel a little more chic.
“This may be controversial, but I think pears are far better than apples. A pear tart is so much more elegant and delicious than an apple pie. Also, fall is overflowing with apple candles, but pear deserves the same love. I didn’t see it, so I wanted to give this beautiful, underrated fruit its moment to shine. Think a delicious baked pear dessert. And, in true CarteHaus fashion, Bartlett & Bosc references one of my comfort shows, Sex and the City (can you guess the episode?)
