Yankee Candle has named the scent of the year for 2022 and it is...Inspire!
What does inspiration smell like? The carefully crafted scent has notes of lime, verbena, bamboo and cedar. But it's not simply a pleasing combination. It's based on the Japanese philosophy of Ikigai, which is intended to help guide you to find your passion and reason for being. Ikigai's 10 rules of happiness, including instructions like, "take it slow and live in the moment," "reconnect with nature" and "give thanks."
"All of these principles and Ikigai and really living your best life really inspired our team to create an uplifting and radiant fragrant for 2022," Yankee Candle fragrance expert Taylor Perlis tells PEOPLE.
