Customer Review: Really fun!
This is such a fun book - the artwork that decorates every page is terrific, the writing style is fun, and while I’ve only played with a few recipes so far - I can definitely say so far so good! The book opens with an intro to faeries, the flowers of faeries, and essential oils. The it gets to drying flowers/herbs (I actually buy mine but plan to expand the gardens next spring so I might be doing some rdying next summer). There’s general info on making potpourri in here like using fixatives to keep the scents etc. Then there’s a great one-pager that lists the different plants and the type of scent they have so you can be creative if you want too. The recipes comprise the rest of the book and they have great names like “christmas magic”, “dance of the morning nymphs” etc. On the facing page to each recipe is a little text of faerie lore pertaining to different plants that were used in the recipe. The recipes are broken out by season so as you welcome the changes of the year you can make a corresponding potpourri. The results are pretty and smell nice too.
Customer Review: a bit of a waste
the book is just a bit too cutesy, and doesn’t really fit in any category. It is certainly not a guide to scent or perfume blending, nor is it a book about aromatherapy. I regret spending the money on it, and plan to offer it used for the price of shipping.

I love this soap! It has these little scrubbies in it that is like a exfoliant. It has cleared up a lot of the imperfections in my skin. Awesome!
Customer Review: The Best Soaps Around!
I can’t say enough positive things about Plantlife soaps. I came to natural soaps for a very specific reason–a husband whose eczema was virtually out of control. For years, we’d tried keeping him on soaps designed for sensitive skin. While this would generally calm flare-ups slightly, it wouldn’t prevent them from creeping up again. Admittedly, since beginning to use Plantlife’s soaps, my husband is NOT eczema free… BUT his skin is drastically improved and his flare-ups are down to about 10% of what they once were. The scents of Plantlife’s soaps are remarkably pleasant too. I’ve yet to find one that is offensive to my nose–they’re delicately done, not over-powering or too “perfume-y.” So if you’re thinking of switching to herbal soaps to treat your skin to the best, most natural clean possible–try some Plantlife soaps. If you’re simply looking for some aromatherapy or some way to mix-up your usual soap routine–try some Plantlife soaps. I’d be willing to bet that if you returned to “normal,” store-bought soaps afterwards, you’d do so grudgingly and reluctantly!

I never leave town without this book. Anytime I have an ailiement I pull out this book first. I have learned so much about the body and the immune system just from this book.

Aromatherapy‘>Aromatherapy: Scent and Psyche: Using Essential Oils for Physical and Emotional Well-Being
Aromatic oils have been used for thousands of years not only for their fragrance but for culinary, therapeutic, ritual, and spiritual purposes. More than a fashionable trend, aromatherapy is coming into its own as a body of knowledge and practice with specific applications that have a solid scientific base. Drawing on research and clinical studies, Peter and Kate Damian look at many applications from treating viral infections with garlic or black pepper oil to using rose oil to relax patients undergoing chemotherapy; from aromatic massage to the “environmental fragrancing” of subways and supermarkets.?
Explores:
How scent interacts with emotion, memory, mental acuity, and sleep
Why specific scents are so effective in therapeutic and ritual settings
Antiseptic and antimicrobial properties of essential oils
How men and women differ in their responses to odors
Provides a thorough exposition of the ancient practice of aromatics in China, India, Persia, and Egypt
Details our modern scientific understanding of the physiology and psychology of scent.?
Includes annotated profiles for forty-four essential oils and specific instructions for creating essential oil blends.?

Customer Review: Scent and Psyche brought together in a in-depth presentation
I most sincerely recommend this work to anyone interested in learning more about the magic of Aromas! Not only do the co-athors Peter and Kate Damian discuss the various attributes of many scents, they also tread deep into the inner workings of the human olfactory system. The research they have gathered is worthy of any major medical journal in both content and depth. I personally am involved in various research in the field of the effects of aromas on the human condition and found their book insightful and quite original. The writting style is simple to follow and filled with those wonderful little phrases that we can carry with us to any social function. I myself have been quoting my favorites parts on quite a regular basis! Sincerely, if you are interested in Aromatherapy‘>Aromatherapy, Incense, Perfume, or even just curious as to how scents have such a powerful response in us as human beings, then I whole heartedly suggest you read this text! Keep well and remember to stop and SMELL the roses!
