Candle scent as an appetite suppressant?

I've been burning two candles all day today; one is "Peppermint Cocoa"
by Yankee Candle, and the other is "Hot Cocoa" made by a small,
home-based candle business. I didn't really think about what candles
I was lighting, I just grabbed a couple similar in color and put the
flame to the wick. One might think that smelling cocoa all day would
give one the urge to splurge on chocolate, but it's had the opposite
effect on me. The scents have actually suppressed my appetite, even
though the fragrance wafting from my living room are delectable. When
my husband got home from school, he asked me if I'd been experimenting
with low carb baking again. Yet, the aroma hasn't seemed to stimulate
his appetite, either. Has anyone else experienced a similar
situation?
