Remember, too, that natural ingredients can be harmful, such as mushrooms, peanuts, poison ivy and pollen!
By being conscious of the way we live, we can try to clean up our own lives and, by doing so, the planet, too.

that are not organic are linked to all types of cancer.

Antiperspirants and deodorants are the number 1 cause of breast cancer in
woman.

What a toxic world we live in!

I think it’s soooo amazing and primal that your husband continues to be intrigued by your smell after years of marriage; talk about your natural allure of mystery!
Hmmm smells that bring back strong memories? My new perfume Roses et Chocolate by Ayala Moriel overshadows all smells in my memory – for me it is divinely intoxicating and simply explodes on my skin. It reminds me of the importance of indulging yourself al the time!

Thanks for your appreciation. Essential oils fuel my fascination with aroma and, having studied their therapeutic application, I’m now studying natural perfumery. My “kit” is never far from my side!
It’s great to hear about your love and fascination, too, and hope they continue to bring you joy and wonder.
Best wishes,
Stephanie

Thanks for this great article! I’ve been fascinated by aroma for most of my life which is why I got involved in essential oils fourteen years ago! I love the “wildly wonderful facts”!

My husband says he’s intoxicated by the natural smell of my neck, sans soap or perfumes — and this after more than two decades of marriage.

I asked on our Facebook Page if there were any scents or fragrances that brought back strong memories. Mine: eucalyptus = grandmother’s house; roses = Mom; Love’s Baby Soft (remember that perfume?) = preteen innocence.

How about you?

Very much looking forward to working with Cacao in class….and smelling chocolate ALL the time! ;)
