However that spice combination is terrific-- one of the best parts of the fall season. Starbucks has a pumpkin spice coffee which is to die for. (I still can't get past the image of floating orange chunks of squash floating in your morning brew, however...)The Left Coast Nosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10102549295051352579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8638187488800760223.post-51359614795788181522010-01-12T10:51:11.009+01:002010-01-12T10:51:11.009+01:00Tom, that is very true.

I would very much like to try it. <br />Though, I first have to locate the exact type of pumpkin. :)Ineshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12119611878721554991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8638187488800760223.post-10425131481601199682010-01-12T01:27:30.122+01:002010-01-12T01:27:30.122+01:00A good smell in my opinion is a universal language...A good smell in my opinion is a universal language.<br /><br />TomTom Baileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00694425811308686944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8638187488800760223.post-8322125961382997442010-01-11T22:55:12.484+01:002010-01-11T22:55:12.484+01:00I make it all the time Ines.

It's a traditional fall favorite, but I keep canned pumpkin in my house year round because it's a comforting smell -- you can buy scented candles that imitate it, too.<br /><br />I make mine just as above but with a twist. I put cream cheese in mine, which makes it sort of like a pumpkin cheesecake.<br /><br />I've tried CB November. I can attest to it smelling, at one point at least, like pumpkin pie after a while, and I love it!DWRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06391438800426810251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8638187488800760223.post-84642669812113756932010-01-11T15:35:36.363+01:002010-01-11T15:35:36.363+01:00Rita, my resident expert (that comes in handy), I&...Rita, my resident expert (that comes in handy), I've heard you can actually buy the squash needed for pumpkin pie here (in Croatia) ;) - but haven't actually seen it.<br />After reading all these ingredients, this pie must smell delicious (and probably tastes so as well). Do you make it sometimes?Ineshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12119611878721554991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8638187488800760223.post-67328782114468214042010-01-11T15:11:38.444+01:002010-01-11T15:11:38.444+01:00I'll be your resident expert in all things Ame...I'll be your resident expert in all things American: pumpkin pie is baked squash (another New World vegetable-- do you have those in Sweden? If not, think yam or sweet potato? Come to think of it, ALL of those are New World...) + cinnamon + nutmeg + clove + mace/allspice. If you want to get fancy, some pumpkin pie scents add butter or creamy notes. It's a rich, earthy, spicy sweet smell.<br /><br />I've never smelled "November"-- that's when we have Thanksgiving, and eat pumpkin pie. I bet it does make for a happy perfume!!The Left Coast Nosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10102549295051352579noreply@blogger.com
