At 11th Level. When you cast this spell, or as an action, you can attach one light to an object or creature within range. If the target is an unwilling creature, make a ranged spell attack. On a hit, the light safely attaches to the target. A light attached in this way moves with the target for the spell's duration, can no longer be moved by you, and it does not wink out if it exceeds the spell's range or 20 foot range of another light. A creature can use an action to destroy one such light.

You dim the flame of a candle, a torch, or a small campfire, halving its light radius.

You touch a creature and instantly remove any unnatural smell from its body or clothing
At 11th Level. When you use this spell to make a flower blossom, a seed pod open, or a leaf bud bloom, you can do so for all plants within range simultaneously.

Additionally, when you use this spell to light or snuff out a flame, you may do so to any number of targets within range.
At 17th Level. When you use this spell to create a barrier against weather, you can influence the temperature and humidity within the sphere to feel comfortable to all creatures within it. This does not mitigate the dangers of extreme heat or cold, nor does it overcome magical weather effects.
