I am getting ready to start my soaps for the season and I wonder what scents remind you all of this time of year

here is mine
spiced wine warm and rich
rum laced eggnog happy and joyful
fir crisp and clean

so I am thinking this year for my yule soaps a spiced wine scent
a creamy eggnog
and woody fir tree
 
I think food scents (which normally don't appeal to me). Cranberry marmalade, as mentioned above. Chai. Pumpkin Pie and gingerbread. Candy cane (peppermint and spearmint EO). Folded orange with hints of cinnamon and clove.

Although for this season so far I've made chocolate mint, citrus lavender, a woodsy blend with cedar predominating and a bright citrus blend of lemon/yuzu/kumquat. Go figure.
 
Three Kings Soap: frankincense, myrrh, with orris root powder, Peru balsam (to give it some sweetness), cedar, geranium, and patchouli. Gold mica on top for the "gold" part.

Winter Solstice: fir, pine, peppermint, lavender, orange.

Afternoon Tea: 35% cocoa butter in the fixed oils, cocoa powder line, bergamot, orange, ginger, tiny bit of cloves and cinnamon.
