mirth Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 For use in the bathroom as an air freshener? I've got the lavender. Tell me a few other scents to mix with it. I have no desire to run down to Whole Foods to smell oils. Lavender alone is a little heady. It needs something to give it a spring. Lemon or orange don't quite seem right. Bergamot? Pine?

Aunty Social Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 I love lemon and lavender, so take my suggestions as you will. :D you might try rosemary or clove, maybe peppermint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalanamak Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Orange oil. Orange and lavender are, I believe, the basis for 4711. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LauraGB Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Peppermint :). Lavender and peppermint are my absolute favorite mixture in the world. In the summer I get on good month of bouquets of roses, lavender and mint from my garden - I look forward to it all year long. Every room in my house smells heavenly! (and then I go back to Eau De Dog/Cat/Kid) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peela Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 I like to put it on everyone's pillows. I put one drop on their pillow in the morning, and turn the pillow over. By the evening, when you turn the pillow back up, it has infused through the pillow. One drop isn't overpowering for us. Sometimes I just drop the drop onto the pillow straight before sleep. I also burn the oils in the schoolroom in an oil burner. In cold season, I use lavender and teatree oil on the pillows/room. Peppermint would do the same- clears and disinfects. Lavender and chamomile is a classic insomnia/stress remedy. I also like orange and lemon with lavender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebecca VA Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Vanilla. There used to be a Tide Lavender and Vanilla detergent that was heavenly. It was discontinued, but there are many users who greatly miss it and have been petitioning Procter & Gamble to bring it back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommee & Baba Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 I use Orange and Lavendar as a room freshener and bedding freshener. I burn Sweet Orange and Lemon alot. I like to use Grapefruit, Lemon, Lime and Orange on occasion and everytime I do it's like a yummy citrus bowl of fruit!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mirth Posted July 16, 2010 Author Share Posted July 16, 2010 I tried lavender and orange. It is really nice. Thank you. Had some trepidation about using food scents in the bathroom but this is fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
