generally cleaners i've made with citrus blends or even woody scents for that

'incense' effect and sadly, bleach.....i   like my bathroom and kitchen to smell

like a light solution of bleach is used. In between, i have my home mady

lysol......adam, you just gave me an idea......wood holds scent......a nice

resinous out doors type scent would work so well, i'm thinking cedar at the

moment tho i do i have fir balsam or fir and balsam.....drat, can't remember.

oh, sorry for those on digest, i know know how this laptop works and i've yet

found a way to copy and paste.......

As you find yourself cleaning up after holiday festivities, what

scents put you in a " cleaning " sort of mood? Which do you consider

cleansing and why?

Citrus, lavender, and cedarwood I like to use for cleansing.  As for getting me

in the mood to clean, I hate cleaning so much, nothing will get me in the mood

to clean!

Lavender strikes me as quintessentially clean. So do tea tree and

eucalyptus, though I don't really like that type of smell.

I don't like to waste e.o.'s for cleaning instead I use grapefruit terpenes and

d-limonene.  Both are taken from the peel of the fruit.  I also like peppermint

terpenes to deodorize my bathroom and my dog's room.

Be well,

cant do the tea tree or  pine.....i had a step gramma who had ocd and pinesol'd

every bit of furniture in her house and afterward sprayed her hands with

lysol.....took me three years to get the pine sol  out of the china

cabinet......to this day either of those products gag me.

 

i can do the rest, mints, citrus , cedar, - lavender, not a fan of that and tea

tree  stinks....fresh is more my style thus a light solution of bleach....that =

no germs to me.....but it has to be light.

Nothing like a frankincense fumigation to really clean up the vibe..

BTW - Just got a new shipment of Hougary incense and 2 kilos of

Chios Mastic, they will be up on the Mermade site this week.

both are really good for that new year home blessing.

The body soon dissolv'd, and all around

Perfum'd with heav'nly fragrancies the ground,

A sacrifice for Gods up-rose from thence,

A sweet, delightful tree of frankincense. Ovid
