[unpaid/sample/affiliate/ad] I’m going to let you into my #lockdown brain – I was just utterly convinced that this was a body oil – I know it says Pillow Mist quite clearly on the bottle but my brain read Body Oil so I very liberally sprayed myself with it before deciding it was one of the worst body oils I’d ever used, despite smelling delicious.
To boot, I gave myself a headache because it’s powerful stuff and then had to have a shower to wash it all off. Also, unknown to me, it’s a sexual wellness blend designed to promote intimacy so frankly, what with the headache and all, it failed – or at least, I did. But, out of context, it’s a very warming and soothing ylang-ylang and patchouli based blend where a little goes a long way – it’s £25 HERE, non-affiliate HERE. I’m quite keen on spritzing mists onto warm towels for making getting out of the bath or shower more of an experience so I’d use it for that but I think, in terms of an aphrodisiac, I’ve ruined my chances of scent association because I almost drowned myself in it. Romantic linen mists are on the rise (forgive me) – I’ve also recently tried thisworks Love Sleep Pillow spray which is also ylang ylang and patchouli based and has a bit more sleep power to its elbow which it should at £30 a pop HERE, non-affiliate HERE.

You made my day, Jane! Awwwwh, sorry but I can’t stop laughing my heart out… I guess we all can remember cases when our beauty/wellness products got …um, unpredictable use (once my friend came to me asking to translate manual on the trial size cream she used for a few days on her face and “suspected it’s not for her skin type” – anti-cellulite one… ). Ylang sounds good, but I have complex relationship with patchouli so for me is best to mix ylang, rose and orange – then I’m high no matter alone or in the company 🙂
haha… easily done :-))
