It was a chore that came around for a few weeks every Fall growing up in New Jersey. The beauty of the tree foliage must end in ground covered in fallen leaves. And suburban yards fill up fast with leaves that need to be raked into piles that line the streets. The smell of the fallen leaves and the autumn rain is a familiar fragrance that fills the air. ‘Raking leaves” captures the smell of those fallen autumn leaves & cider. Another warm comforting drink that marks this time of year on the east coast. It’s a simple, yet completely unique and interesting scent that I love & miss (unlike the leaf raking, which I don’t miss one bit).
