William Sonoma Secret Simmer Ingredients: A few sprigs of fresh rosemary 1 large lemon 1 tsp vanilla I think everyone can agree that Anthropologie and William Sonoma are the two best smelling stores on the planet. Since I already own every candle ever sold at Anthro, I decided to give the famous William Sonoma Simmer a try! This heavenly concoction took about 5 seconds to make and is currently filling my home with its gorgeous scent.  Directions: 1. Pour two cups of water into a pot on medium heat. 2.
