Mrs. Meyer’s Clean Day Limited Edition Fall Scents Review: Acorn Spice And Apple Cider

It's Beginning To Feel A Lot Like Fall, There Is A Crisp Coolness On The Breeze & Autumn Scents Start To Fill The Air...

As someone originally from the Northeast who now lives down South, I can honestly say there are few things that I miss about living up North - with one exception - the most magical season of all - fall!  And let me tell you, there is nothing like fall in New England, a.k.a. arguably the "autumn capitol" of the United States.

Mrs. Meyer's Clean Day Fall Scents Captures Seasonal New England Nostalgia No Matter Where You Are

Experiencing the sights and scents of a New England summer as it transitions into fall is one of the joys of living in a place with distinct seasons.  Like a rite of passage, almost overnight, the leaves appear to change from green to varying shades of gold.  It is something anyone familiar with the natural phenomenon looks forward to every year, to say the least.

Not surprisingly, when you move to a place where you no longer experience these intense seasonal transitions, it is easy to feel a sense of nostalgia, and to look for ways to recreate these memories as best you can.  One of the surprising ways I have found to create a sense of the season in the tropics is with the nostalgic fall scents from Mrs. Meyer's Clean Day Limited Edition Fall collection, especially the Apple Cider and Acorn Spice scents.

While fall is beautiful in the tropics, every now and again, outside on certain autumn eve's, I smell something that transports me to autumn up North.  Like the aroma of burnt wood smoke wafting through the dark night, a sure sign that fall has arrived.  Or spiced apple cider, a scent that can transport me to long ago apple-picking trips like a ghost of New England of autumns' past. 

Well, somehow Mrs. Meyer's Acorn Spice and Apple Cider have managed to bottle the fragrances of fall to bring the scents of a New England autumn right into your home.

Mrs. Meyer's Limited Edition Apple Cider & Acorn Spice Provide Some Sensory Aromatherapy By Bottling The Essence Of Fall

Not surprisingly, Mrs. Meyer's Limited Edition Fall scent in Apple Cider evokes drinking hot spiced apple cider on cold October days and nights.  Similarly, Mrs. Meyer's Limited Edition Acorn Spice conjures up the woodsy aroma you inhale as you briskly take that shortcut through the forest for the relative safety of the street as night descends over the now ominous woods...

OK, that may be a bit dramatic, but such is the powerful effect of scent as the sense of smell happens to be the sense most closely tied to nostalgia.  Something about the close relationship between the olfactory nerves and the amygdala which plays a significant role in emotional memory....  However, scientific explanations aside, you simply know it when you smell it.

What Does Mrs. Meyer's Apple Cider Smell Like? Fall Coziness In A Bottle

Mrs. Meyer's Apple Cider Multi-Surface Cleaner has always been a favorite, one which I eagerly anticipate every year, even when there is only a hint of fall in the air.  While not usually especially excited about household cleaner, in this case, Mrs. Meyer's does nothing less than a spot-on imitation of one of the great fall beverages of all time -- hot spiced caramel apple cider...

That's right - Mrs. Meyer's Apple Cider scent perfectly captures the drink with hints of clove and even some creamy caramel notes... or maybe that's just wishful thinking on my part.  Either way, no surprise this is a favorite as hot spiced caramel apple cider is one of the all-time favorite beverages on a cold fall day, which you can easily replicate with the delicious recipe here...  Yum.  But I digress...

New Favorite... What Does Mrs. Meyer's Acorn Spice Multi-Surface Cleaner Smell Like?

Mrs. Meyer's Multi-Surface Cleaner Acorn Spice scent somehow manages to capture the toasty goodness of nuts with almost a buttered rum aspect -- rich, spicy with hints of cinnamon, vanilla, and perhaps some nutmeg.  Either way, it all adds up to a nutty richness that I associate more with a delectable fall dessert at an autumn woodland picnic than a multi-surface cleaning product.  Regardless, it is a nice fall scent scent to have lingering around the house.

Not cloying or sweet, it also reminds me of that fresh, woodsy smell you get on your jacket or flannel after an afternoon spent in some autumn woods.

Mrs. Meyer's Clean Day - Reliable, Effective & Eco-Friendly

With the same reliable, effective and eco-friendly cleaning power we have come to expect from Mrs. Meyer's line of products, both Mrs. Meyer's Apple Cider and Acorn Spice scents are, as usual, plant-derived and formulated with essential oils, not synthetic fragrances.  Both are labeled as "USDA Certified Bio-based Products" and both continue the tradition of being paraben and phthalate-free as well as being free of any glycol solvents or artificial colors.

How To Use Mrs. Meyer's Clean Day Multi-Surface Everyday Cleaner

Both the Apple Cider and Acorn Spice scents remove dirt and freshen surfaces, and per the label, you can "use on all non-porous surfaces like finished wood and tile floors, countertops, walls, porcelain, bathroom fixtures, sealed stone and granite."  While I have the 16 ounce Multi-Surface Everyday Cleaner that I purchased at Target, Mrs. Meyer's has a whole range of scented products from dish soap to hand soap to room freshener, but of course, availability varies depending on your individual store location.

Step Up Your Cleaning Game & Bring Fall Nostalgia To Your Home With Autumn Inspired Mrs. Meyer's Products

Whether you are experiencing fall in the warm tropics under languid palm trees by the beach or you are in a place with brisk temperatures, crisp falling leaves and rolling acorns littering your path, Mrs. Meyer's Limited Edition Clean Day Apple Cider and Acorn Spice scented products will transport you to a traditional New England fall... all while making your house spotlessly clean in the process.
