Making Romantic Scents
How to make scents to stimulate romantic feelings
Romance is a special intimate mood which many people would like more
of in their lives. Being romantic is different from feeling sexy and
erotic and need not be passionate. There is a gentle, wishful quality to
romance, which evokes an escapist, fantasy, dreamlike feeling. Women
especially watch romantic films and read romantic novels to recreate
that special, elusive mood.
We often want our partner to be more romantic, because romantic
behavior tells us that we are loved and cared for . St. Valentine's Day
encapsulates the essence of romance, with its traditional gifts of red
roses, boxes of chocolates and candle-lit dinners. However, using
romantic mood scents can bring a little more romance into your everyday
life.
Rose is the classic romantic essential oil: both absolute and rose
otto of any of the different varieties. Marjoram and benzoin are calming
when you feel like a romantic cuddle rather than sex. Ylang ylang and
rosewood are exotic and sweetly romantic, while clary sage is euphoric
and romantic.
