Guest guest Posted May 5, 2003 Report Share Posted May 5, 2003 *LOL* That's okay, my hubby hates the smell of Rosemary! I had him sniffing it this weekend cause he has a sinus headache, and he goes " That stuff smells as bad as that damn oregano oil tastes " .

Guest guest Posted May 6, 2003 Report Share Posted May 6, 2003 I am not compatible with lavender either. However, the best thing I ever tried was the hydrosols (vs. EOs). I ordered one from Butch and he sent me a small sample of another as well. I love them in equal parts water very warm (not steaming) in my apartment for a quick pick me up. Rosemary and oregano I can't get enough of and causes my Italian friends to linger at our kitchen table!! Dale - Christine Ziegler Sunday, May 04, 2003 11:14 PM Stinky Herbs (Was RE: LAVENDER ...

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2003 Report Share Posted May 9, 2003 I never think of Lavender as bad smelling, i always think of it as a relaxing, strong. clean scent. Carol in NJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 9, 2003 Report Share Posted May 9, 2003 I looooove it too...but.... I always notice that while in the bottle, the EO smells divine....when I put some on, or put some on a tissue to carry or something...the scent seems to change after a couple of minutes and it's not nearly so nice. And even the EO somehow smells different than if I make a little sachet of lavender... -Kat , crwilm@a... wrote: > I never think of Lavender as bad smelling, i always think of it as a > relaxing, strong. clean scent. > Carol in NJ > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
