It makes me sad when people don't like musk or patchouli for example because I love them sooooo much and they are in so many perfumes. But I guess I kind of get it because I struggle with almond, its too powdery for me. Almond has to be candy sweet or I won't like it. I also don't love iris, its the powdery smells I dont love. Great video! I LOVE declutters!!

So, having those containers makes me have and helps me keep boundaries of how much I buy . Once they are full and they are, then I don’t buy until there is space available, meaning I have to either use it up or declutter. I don’t have any right now I want to declutter.

Hi Carmen 👋. Love that color on you! Nice declutter. I like LVEB L'eclat, it's one of my signature scents. As my bottle got older and darkened, the jasmine sambac really came out for me. I knew that's what you were talking about when you mentioned jasmin sambac at the beginning of the video (great minds think alike lol). When you mentioned using the rollerball oils for household use, I thought of a way you could use them: You could roll them onto cotton balls and then stuff the cotton balls into drawers, crannies etc like sachets. Another idea: spray linens and curtains to be surrounded by scent. I like doing my curtains because when they are moved, you get some scent wafted over. Also read online that a cleaner would put some essential oils on her vacuum cleaner filter to make the room smell nice because the filter heats up as the vacuum is used. Not sure if the perfume oils would work for that or if that would be toxic 💀😬. Hope this helps!
@CarmenScentrix
Жыл бұрын
My friend says she uses them in the vacuum too! I'll have to try that! Definitely might try adding some oils to my homemade cleaners and sprays.
