This is an introduction to the way in which scents can actually change the way a person feels. Some fragrances can help a person relax and unwind, some will refresh while others are stimulating, invigorating and positively uplifting.
This stylish and contemporary book is an evocative and inspirational introduction to the way in which scents can actually change the way a person feels. Some fragrances can help you relax and unwind, some will refresh you when you are feeling drained, while others are stimulating, invigorating and positively uplifting. The guide is divided into easy-to-read mini-chapters based on the effects of different scents. Readers are invited to choose the one that suits their mood: there are invigorating, stimulating or refreshing scent suggestions for when feeling low or tired; calming fragrances for times of irritation or stress, and fresh, purifying and regenerating aromas when a little pampering is needed. The text, which is peppered with interesting historical anecdotes, has plenty of practical suggestions for using scents to enhance health and well being, nourish the body or add fragrance to the home. There is useful, up-to-date information, too, on the medicinal used of scents, along with recipes for simple skincare products to make, from a nourishing night cream and a fruity, fresh cleanser, to scented bath oil and a seductive massage mix.
At the end of the book, a concise directory of plant-based fragrances includes information on their properties and how to use them, along with all the essential facts needed to use scents safely and efficiently.
