Lavender’s blue…

  • #recommendations

And I would love some recommendations. I feel like I’m missing lavender from my collection - any recs for light, bedtime appropriate fragrances with this most calming of notes??

I don’t really mind if they’re designer, celebrity, niche or otherwise categorised!

Thanks in advance <3

    Lush Cosmetics makes a “Sleepy” body spray that has lavender and tonka for a velvety smoothness to lull you off to sleep. I love the scent, although I’m not a big fan of the bottle it comes in…I feel like I’m dowsing myself down with a bottle of household cleaner. Outside of that, the scent is really comforting and not overpowering.

      Ha I might be able to get past the cleaner spray aspect if it smells nice!

    Mon Guerlain Eau de Parfum is fab. It blends the calming aromatics of lavender with comfy, cozy vanilla. For more aromatic real lavender forward scent try L'Occitane Cocon de Serentite Pillow Mist or Neom Pillow Mist (very much an English lavender scent) . My fav bedtime lavender of all time is @Naxos but it’s got honey and tobacco so it might not be your thing.

      Oh I’m due a visit to L’Occitane… these are great, thank you!

    My favorite is Chanel Les Exclusifs Jersey. It’s a bright, cheerful lavender. Also, Mon Guerlain is nice - a bit warmer with more vanilla!!

    I love Sleepy by Lush. The lavender plus tonka bean is fantastic. I usually don’t like lavender but I’m a huge fan of this, especially after it drys down. I have the matching lotion

      I recommend testing it in store and taking the test strip home with you to see how it develops! You can also test on your skin. The store can be overwhelming

      Don’t you worry, I end up in Lush every Christmas Eve as my partner desperately tries to find something for his mam… I am familiar with their nasal assault!
