What is your favorite aroma?
I love home fragrances as well as personal ones (currently use Miracle by Lancome or Blackberry Vanilla-Bath and Body works) but I LOOOOOVE to scent my house with natural lavendar (which I grow), spices and hot potpourri that simmers a fruity/vanilla-like scent.
I've lots of greenery in the yard--does anyone know of a good, homemade potpourri I could make from lavendar, rose, calendula, daisy? Or any ideas on backyard abundance and what to do with it. Thanks! ![]() |

I'm not the one to ask on the potpourri question, but I absolutely love lavendar. So calming.
On the other side of the spectrum there's the wonderful smell of brewing coffee--makes you want to get up and go! |

Rain on hot pavement *is* petrichor, and one of my favorites, pairs nicely with cool water from the hose.
