Thank you very much, my beautiful friend. It is my absolute pleasure!

We recently experienced a record-breaking heatwave here, during which I put that very use for essential oil into practice. It was to the skin as an ice-cold drink is to the inner body.

I hope that the temps have been quite as brutal on your end so far this summer, and that your July is going splendidly.

Oodles of hugs,
🖤 Autumn

Thank you very much, dear Tammy. Aww! You are thoroughly welcome. It is my absolute pleasure! 😘

I was rather surprised in penning this post to realize that this was the first time in Witchcrafted Life’s 1.5 years of life that I’d focused an entry solely on essential oils.

Hopefully, it will be one of many here that shine the spotlight on essential oils as time goes on.

Big hugs & the loveliest of summer wishes coming your way!
🖤 Autumn

Dearest Sheila, I am sorry beyond measure about Karen’s passing and sincerely understand how that heartbreaking occurrence has forever impacted this chapter of the year for you.

Thank you very much for sharing that fact with me. Please know that my heart and ongoing condolences are with you around the clock. 💗

What an awesome selection of summertime perfect scents you listed. I love, love, love the aroma of roses sooo much (and perhaps not surprising then, they rank as my all-time favourite flower 🌹).

Cut grass sounds like such a cool scent for a fragrance. Is it perchance from the brand Demeter? 💚

I well remember when their scents were all the range about 12 – 20 years ago. Happily, the brand is still around and the more I think it about it now, the more I miss owning some of their offerings. I might have to treat myself and pick up a bottle or two again. 😃

We are so often two peas in a pod, my dear friend. It’s wonderful that you’re an olfactory-driven person as well. 😃

I adore discussing this topic (back, many years ago now, on my retired vintage blog, one of my all-time favourite posts there was a look at several of my most beloved scents) and hope to pen more posts here pertaining to the joys and importance of aroma in our lives.

I’m with you completely regarding the fabulous scent of freshly mowed grass. Few olfactory delights say summer quite like that timeless classic.

Various brands offer essential oils in the scent “fresh cut grass”, including both P&J Trading and Nature’s Note Organic. I haven’t worked with either of them yet so can’t speak to the realism of their takes on cut grass. However, about twenty years ago now (how time flies!) I had a green grass-scented candle from the brand Yankee Candle that did an impressively good job of capturing that beautiful aroma in wax form.

I hope that you have a terrific spring-into-summer week and a gorgeous, relaxing, safe, and happy season (complete with lots of your favourite scents) ahead. 💚

That’s awesome, Donna. 🙌 I reach for mine frequently as well and must say, after researching and penning this post, am itching to grow my current collection with a broader range of summertime perfect scents (happily though, care of a gift from my very thoughtful sister a few years back, I already have a bottle of grapefruit essential oil).

Sadly the summer solstice is forever associated with the loss of my dear friend Karen last year to cancer. We plan to go down to the waterfront on Tuesday and remember her and celebrate her spirit. I may wear my Cut Grass.
