I am a purist and
scent my candles only with essential oils. As I have suffered from migraines
for many years I don't use perfumes and candles scented with synthetic
fragrances....And why would you want to diffuse your home with synthetic
fragrance rather than the wonderful and tranquil aroma of herbs and plants? For centuries
aromatherapy was used to soothe, uplift
and heal the body and mind with the application and/or inhalation of botanical
oils.
Some of the beautiful plants
that are used to scent my candles....

Hi Marina! It's great to finally see your blog. It's such a beautiful time of the year to burn candles - I've had one going in the evenings most evenings this past week. I must say, I had no idea what May Chang was until you posted a picture of it. Thanks!
