Must have: Essential oils

Today, I want to tell you about one of my favorite everyday essentials. It is a great way of getting the room smell lovely without worrying about a lot of candle smoke in the air. So, let me tell you a little bit about my etheric oil collection.

How I use them:

I have a few of these dispensers, where you pour in some water, add a few drops of the oil and light a candle underneath. I light them almost every day when I get home from work or university, in the evening, when I am getting ready to go to sleep and especially when I am studying, because they help me to relax and focus.

I much prefer spicy and warm scents; therefore I own very little fruity fragrances:

Body Shop Strawberry

Not one of my favorites, a bit too sweet and sickly, but it works nice in bigger spaces (my room is very small)

White Lychee and Fig

This one is very special to me, because I got it from my grandma and it reminds me of her anytime I use it. It has a very fresh and light scent; it gets the room smelling clean and nice without being too obvious. I like to use it when I am studying, because it is so nice and refreshing.

Jasmin and Orange

Jasmin is definitely my all-time favorite fragrance and combined with orange it makes an amazing room scent. Using it always puts me in a good, happy mood and gives me lots of energy.

Cinnamon

I got this one last Christmas from my boyfriend’s mum and it always gets me into Christmas spirit. It is a lovely, simple cinnamon-y scent, perfect for those who don't want anything to strong or 

overpowering.

Vanilla

I have two different oils with vanilla scent, but I prefer the Ombia one. It is such a nice warm and cozy scent, perfect for the colder months. It makes my room smell like it is full of freshly baked cookies when I use it.

Chocolate

This one is the strongest in my collection and is so powerful, that you can practically taste it when you use it. I use it very very lightly so it doesn't get too sickly, but it is great to use in the bathroom while enjoying a nice worm bath. Perfect choice for all the chocolate addicts out there!

Winter Spice

This one is my go-to Christmas scent. It makes the room smell like there is a bit pot of mulled wine cooking somewhere nearby. It is a great mixture of spicy scents that gets you feeling a little bit extra Christmassy.

Do you use essential oils or do you prefer candles?

Thanks for reading and see you in my next post!
