I am a huge lavender fan and when I was in my teens I used to buy quite large bottles of lavender oil (before it was a popular thing to buy essential oils). It came with a dropper - many people used it to sooth burns and cuts and add to cloths to place in cupboards to keep the moths at bay and make them smell sweet. Unfortunately, it is now difficult to get the loose oils which were made from English lavender. Now when purchasing a small bottle it can often smell like cheap polish.
I have found one that is quite nice and smells of English lavender and that is called "De Valle 100% pure undiluted essential oil of laveder" it comes in a tiny 10ml bottle and is made in Manchester. Just one or two drops splashed into a bath makes the whole room smell like a summer meadow (filled of course with lavender) and it is very relaxing and soothing.
Who doesn't love a good smelling candle? I love the vibrant purple of that particular one!
ReplyDeleteLavender is my favorite scent when I take a bath, so soothing - however, all Lavender candles and scents are not the same.
