On today's IN YOUR CITY Show with Kelley Lamm - Montgomery and Gordon Montgomery we step inside Casa Don Alfonso St. Louis at The Ritz-Carlton, St. Louis . From Sorrento to Clayton, Mario Iaccarino shares how design, memory, and an open-kitchen stage turn dinner into a sensory journey—copper pans glowing, custom tiles whispering history, and wisteria captured in glass and paint.

Buying a REAL Christmas tree in your city for the Holiday!
🎄 Top Christmas Trees With the BEST Christmas Smell

⭐ 1. Balsam Fir — The strongest, most classic Christmas scent

If you want the tree that smells like a Christmas candle… THIS is it.

Sweet, rich, evergreen aroma

Holds its fragrance the longest

Soft needles, great shape
Most fragrant tree available.

⭐ 2. Fraser Fir — Fresh, clean, piney scent

The most popular tree in the U.S.

Fragrance is strong but not overwhelming

Great needle retention

Slightly citrusy, winter-forest smell
Perfect balance of scent + durability.

⭐ 3. Douglas Fir — Sweet, fruity evergreen aroma

Softer, sweeter scent — almost vanilla-pine

Very full branches

Holds scent moderately well
Strong, warm, cozy smell.

⭐ 4. Grand Fir — Very intense aroma

Beautiful glossy needles

One of the most aromatic trees on the market

Smell fills the room quickly
A “wow” tree for scent lovers.

⭐ 5. Noble Fir — Subtle but long-lasting fir smell

More elegant than fragrant

Clean, forest-like scent

Strong branches (great for ornaments)
Not as strong as Balsam or Fraser, but still fragrant.

🌲 Trees With LITTLE or NO Smell

If scent matters, avoid these:

🚫 White Pine

– Pretty, but almost NO fragrance.

🚫 Scotch Pine

– Very faint smell.

🚫 Blue Spruce

– Has a sharp smell only when needles are crushed, not naturally fragrant.
