What’s Brewing? The Pumpkin Spice Takeover! 🎃✨

Fall’s Hottest Trend: Pumpkin Spice Everything

Oh, hello, fall! You know it’s that time of year when Starbucks rolls out the legendary Pumpkin Spice Latte. But wait—did you realize pumpkin spice isn’t just a latte craze? It’s a full-blown phenomenon.

Let’s dive into why pumpkin spice has become the ultimate autumn obsession and how savvy DTC (Direct To Consumer) brands are riding this spicy wave to rev up their sales before the holiday frenzy kicks in.

Why We Can’t Get Enough of Pumpkin Spice:

Pumpkin Spice isn’t just a flavor; it’s a seasonal celebration. What started as a cozy fall treat has exploded into an $800-million industry!

It’s more than just a taste; it’s a sensory trip down memory lane, evoking warmth, comfort, and all the feels of autumn.

Plus, let’s be honest—there’s something irresistible about seasonal exclusivity. The limited-time allure makes pumpkin spice lovers swoon and rush to grab their favorites before they’re gone. It’s a limited-time offer that turns every sip, bite, or even sniff into a golden opportunity.

DTC Brands Getting Their Pumpkin Spice On:

You think it’s just about lattes? Think again! Superfood brand Blume is back with their pumpkin spice blend for DIY PSL enthusiasts, while Malk Organics is spicing things up with their Almond Pumpkin Spice Malk. And for those movie nights, Lesser Evil’s pumpkin spice popcorn is here to pop up your snacking game.

But wait, there’s more! Even the trusty Hefty has joined the fun with cinnamon pumpkin spice trash bags. And, if you thought Stanley’s colorway couldn’t get any cooler, they’ve now dropped a pumpkin spice-inspired hue. Not to be outdone, Dude Wipes has rolled out their DUMPkin Spice flushable wipes. Yes, really!

How Can You Pumpkin Spice Up Your Brand? 🎃

So, we’ve established that pumpkin spice isn’t just a trend—it’s a cultural moment! 🍂 But how can you harness the power of pumpkin spice (PSL, anyone?) for your own brand? Think colors, scents, and seasonal packaging that tap into that cozy, autumnal vibe. After all, the key is to create that “I gotta have it now” urgency with a fun, seasonal twist.

Can your product be pumpkin-ified? 

1. Seasonal Scents and Limited-Edition Products:

Pumpkin spice doesn’t just have to be a latte—it can be an entire product experience! At Orglamix, we’ve embraced PSL fever with a full-on Pumpkin Spice Latte (PSL) collection of organic skincare products, including a PSL lip balm and a limited-edition cozy, warm PSL eyeshadow that customers go crazy for. These fall favorites aren’t just products—they’re moments of pumpkin-spiced self-care. 🌿💄

For our sister brand, Wicked Good, the pumpkin spice magic doesn’t stop! We roll out an extensive line of fall fragrances every year, but PSL is a perennial bestseller. Why? Because our customers can’t get enough of that sweet, spicy aroma that instantly wraps them up in a warm, autumn hug. From candles to body mists, pumpkin spice is a staple that keeps flying off the shelves.

2. Color Palettes Inspired by Fall Favorites:

Even if your brand isn’t in the food, beverage, or beauty game, you can still leverage the pumpkin spice trend with a seasonal color update. Think rich, warm hues—deep oranges, spicy reds, and cozy browns—that give off those autumn vibes. For example, Stanley jumped on this idea with their new pumpkin spice-inspired colorway, making even a simple drinkware item feel trendy and in the spirit of the season.

3. Cozy, Limited-Edition Packaging:

Sometimes, all you need is a little packaging refresh to tap into a seasonal trend. Imagine your products wrapped in warm, autumnal colors or cute pumpkin-themed designs. This not only catches the eye but also makes your customers feel like they’re getting something special for the season. Seasonal packaging can create a collectible feel and elevate the customer experience, encouraging people to stock up before the season ends!
