[unpaid/sample/affiliate/ad] Well, this is good news for AA enthusiasts. I’m a big fan of this brand’s aromatherapy oils – they’re what stopped me being an aromatherapy sceptic and taught me that they can be powerful, mood balancing and healing. My ideal bath is taken early evening with Deep Relax, slipping into my pjs (not glamorous) then wrapping up downstairs to watch some innocuous, undemanding TV – extras include the fire being on and a glass of chilled rose in my hand and the dog on my lap.
This rose is a new blend, crafted on and off over five years by Master Blender, Luke Taylor, who keeps to Geraldine Howard’s original intention of blends with ‘intent and purpose’. There are SO many individual oils in this blend – which is designed to promote positivity – but the key players are Rose, Geranium and Palmarosa. It’s wonderful – a real mood balancer that’s somewhere between nurturing, heart-warming and uplifting.
It is a blend for troubled times, that’s for sure, whether its to touch the unsettled feeling we all have right now or to remind us that it’s okay to take time for you. If it’s out of reach, budget wise, a simple rose oil from your local health store will give you a luxury feel to your bath that is just as valid in nurturing and creating space for yourself. I never thought I would be shifted from Deep Relax (which is a liquid therapist, I swear) but Rose is definitely nudging at top spot. If you’re an early bird for festive shopping (like me) I am strongly eyeing up the engraved bottles (of which there are only 25 each so hurry!) that give positive messages – You Can, Believe, Your Best Self and Power of Optimism. They’re £49 each (and you get a complimentary hand cream) HERE, non-affiliate HERE.

How lovely! Like you I really love Aromatherapy Associates Bath Oils and I have done for many years. I really think they can’t be beaten on quality and efficacy and just sheer luxurious enjoyment. They are my favourite thing for a lovely gift too. I’m already getting them in for Christmas! I gift them to my brother on repeat. Girlfriends are getting the new shower oil this year. To be honest I look out for a wee bargain and stock them up, particularly in the Ultimate Collection, the lovely box with 10 generous bottles in it. It is such a beautiful gift. The only problem is that I want them in EVERY bath, but they are just so special that I do try to eke them out so they are a treat. I really like Weleda Bath milks as a more affordable and every day alternative.
I’m the same – I want them every single time! It’s a good idea to stock up when you find them at better prices – I’ve done the same.
