Natural Botanical Perfume Oils from Root Down Botanicals
Root Down Botanicals awakens and energizes, calms, and refreshes with the power of herbs. Try one or all three formulas as part of the usual routine. You may find the natural alternative preferable to a caffeine fix or jolt from icy water.
Some days a pot of coffee doesn’t seem to do the trick. And no one likes the post-caffeine jitters or the following crash. Those sleepless nights may scream for a cup of Chamomile tea or dose of a sleep aid, but the morning fog may lead to more coffee or sugar for a boost. The high-crash-high cycle never seems to end. Instead of coffee or sugar, why not try fragrance? Have you noticed a boost when peppermint fills the air or felt calmer when the lavender candle burns in the background? Does the scent of sugar cookies or pound cake remind you of your grandmother? Whether you believe that aromatherapy works or not, some fragrances just make you feel better. Maybe they remind you of a specific event or just happier times in general. Chanté Floreani of Root Down Botanicals believes the power of naturally derived fragrance can make a difference in your mood.
Floreani’s philosophy, “Smell Good + Feel Good, Naturally,” is evident in her products and practices. The three oil blends in the Root Down Botanicals line are all hand blended in small batches and formulated from sustainably produced herbs, flowers, seeds, and fruit. Each blend is formulated with a specific therapeutic goal in mind, and rests in a base of Argon, Jojoba, and Apricot Kernel Oils. All Root Down Botanicals products are safe and contain no synthetic fragrances or dyes, sulfates, chemical preservatives, or parabens. Floreani also believes in giving back. A percentage of every purchase is donated to select charities.
The Root Down Botanicals line includes three formulas that can be purchased alone ($29 each) or as a set of three ($74). The undecided can pick up a sample set for $5 each. Pick a formula based on the mood you want to enhance and apply the blend to any pulse points – just roll it on.
If you’re like me, the Morning blend, Awaken & Energize is for you. The citrus mint blend is not too sweet, appealing to almost everyone, and does perk you up. Rosemary helps with focus and clarity as the grapefruit and spearmint bring energy and freshness to the senses. It’s perfect in the am or the afternoon when an extra boost is needed.
If you’re having a bad day (or a migraine), try Calm & Center. This Afternoon blend of Lavender, White Thyme, and Lemongrass has uplifting, calming, soothing, and revitalizing properties. Since my headache remedy includes lavender, I decided to try Calm & Center instead. I felt relief within the usual amount of time which made it easier to keep working until a project was completed. Relax & Unwind helps set the tone for a mellow evening. The herbal fragrance with floral and citrus notes is inspiring, calming, relaxing, and invigorating. Ylang Ylang, Bergamot, and Clary Sage make a fantastic combination.
Rood Down Botanicals blends will boost your mood in a natural way. Caffeine-free energy boosts are good with me anytime. Don’t think your have to use the fragrances at the suggested times of day. Mix it up – try Relax & Unwind when you have a big meeting on the agenda. Calm & Center makes an excellent choice for any time of day. Need a boost before the second part of your day kicks in? Awaken & Energize is perfect. Treat yourself to one or more and let me know what you think.
