WolfM:
I am kind of an advanced state of biscuit inebriation currently.
One of my favorite biscuits are back IN stores now - the beloved German Gewürz-Spekulatius (Spekulatius spiced cookies).
Two hours since I came home with them and I have already devoured approximately a 3/4 kg.
This will be my primary food in the coming days... till February.
I do not know for what idiotic reason here they appear in the stores only before Christmas?
I could not join in the spirit of the topic, because for now I have not found a perfume/s to associate.
Search is underway, however!

Wolf, I'm so glad to know that someone else shares my cookie addiction. As Cookie Monster would say "Nom, nom, nom!"
And Pipette is right on the money suggesting "Five o'clock au gingembre" It really captures all the warm spice notes of Specula.
My family's heritage is Scandinavian so this time of the year I start thinking about Pepparkakor (gingersnaps) and krumkake. I love when the house smells of ginger, cinnamon and cardamom.
Also, I have a bad habit of stopping by a local deli/bakery that makes Cowboy Cookies: They are made of graham flour instead of regular flour and are basically chocolate chunk cookies with the addition of pecans, oatmeal and shredded coconut. The good news is that they're high fiber so they go through you like a Ferrari and your body can't absorb any of the fat. I love science...
