My Guilty Jo Malone Pleasure



There's something incredibly nostalgic about a scent - it has the ability to transform our mood whilst simultaneously evoking a multitude of memories and emotions.

Naturally, I seem to collect scents like I do memories..






Heck, I am a little bit embarrassed to even click 'publish' but here we go! Let's start with a bird's eye-view:



Now - say hello to the minis:



Above lies my 'mini bottle' collection. Otherwise known as an optimum size for popping into any handbag.

Rich, velvety and luscious body cremes:



Trust me when I say these are incredibly lavish and soak quickly into your skin allowing you to add another luxe dimension to scent layering - without having to stand scarecrow-esque waiting for the moisturiser to set.

Soaps, body washes & other miscellaneous items:



Truthfully, I am unsure when I will use the body wash or hand wash (both part of gift sets) but they'll no doubt be slathered on my skin at some stage. Actually - I retract that bold (and slightly ludicrous) statement. I'll be using my bath oil this Sunday on our weekend getaway.

Light it up:



My modest collection of blissfully scented wax pots. I burn these beauties as I rattle fingertips to keyboard concocting blog posts, writing to-do lists and finding inspiration on my favourite YouTube channels.

It's getting intense:



Yes, yes it is indeed. Rich and wonderfully sultry, I turn to my intense colognes to add an oomph to my day. I'm a firm believer that a spritz of the right scent and a slick of an apt body creme instantly creates the perfect mood-booster.

Ps. Finally - the Dark Amber & Ginger Lily oil is truly like no other. Complex, and truly enigmatic it's a joy to apply copious amounts of each morning!



If you'd like to see what scents I pair together you're welcome to read my other post (here).

You'll know I love to ramble and chat away to anyone and everyone so when I say please let me know your favourite scent combinations, trust me - I mean it!
