Epsom Salt Potpourri: 3 Fragrance and Botanical Pairings
Updated: Oct 18
Use these pairings to choose the look and scent of a small decorative display. They are fragrance directions, not tested oil formulas. Begin with the main guide for quantities, handling and the limitations of this project.
1. Lavender and soft petals
Combine dried lavender with a few dried pale rose petals. Enjoy the natural aroma first. For a vanilla note, choose only a fragrance product approved for this application; do not pour food vanilla extract into a dry blend.
2. Citrus and rosemary
Use fully dried orange or lemon peel with a little dried rosemary. Citrus peel should be dry throughout, including any thicker pith. A citrus fragrance is optional and must follow its supplier’s application instructions.
3. Rose and warm spice
Dried rose petals with a few cardamom pods give colour and texture. A suitable woody fragrance can complement the display. Do not assume a rose, cardamom or sandalwood oil has a universal safe drop count for every mixture.
Keep the purpose clear
Keep the finished blend dry and away from children, pets, food, heat and fabric. Do not use it in the bath or as a simmer pot. Refresh only as the fragrance supplier permits; discard damp or deteriorating mixtures.
