Guest guest Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 Hi guys, I have a beautiful aromalamp blend made by a good friend here that includes Oak Moss Absolute (Evernia prunastri). What think you of using it as a room/linen spray just on the top of my bed's comforter? Could a light misting just on the top of the bedspread, that doesn't touch my skin, still be an irritant? (In case you're not familiar, Oak Moss is a powerful skin irritant. Smells wonderful though in the lamp if you're into deep smoky almost campfire-like scents.) Ta, Stacey who wants her room and bed specifically to smell like a forest tonight! P.S. I'll never forget the time I put a drop of Oak Moss Absolute (a deep forest green/black tarlike substance) on a cotton pad and placed it inside my pillow. I woke up to a big green blotch on my face where it'd evidently seeped through. Think LOTS of makeup that day. (No reaction, though, thankfully!)

Guest guest Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 Hi That should be fine - its a skin irritant, so as long as its not on your skin it cant irritate it Be careful if you are respiratory challenged though, or prone to headaches, it can exacerbate both. As with any chemical based substance - dont overuse!
