My mama has been making her own Christmas scent for many years and the smell not only transports me to Christmas, but, much more importantly, Christmas at home.
This is one of my absolute favourite scents in entire world - so warm, spicy, Winter-y, Christmas-y, and so very easy.
Grab three or four cinnamon sticks, four or five whole nutmeg, and a hand full of cloves - put in a small saucepan and fill three-quarters full with water. Boil. Reduce to simmer and let it bubble away, just make sure you don't go too far because the water will eventually disappear (just add more and repeat).
Smell. Transport to the best Christmas memory ever and smile.
