Nature asks us to hit the pause button and to take a deep breath. Smell the wonderful earthy and woody scents surrounding us. Soak in the majestic sight of golden fluttering leaves and revel in the warming autumn sun. Indoors, we bathe in luxury and gourmand scents.
This season is all about cocooning and indulging yourself and your loved ones. Let’s explore some wonderful essential oils and botanicals to indulge the senses.
Aufguss Sessions fit for Cocoon Heaven
Mystery forest
- Round 1: Smoke of the Kelts
- Round 2: Vetiver EO
- Round 3: Mountain pine EO
Welcome your guests to your mystery forest Aufguss with a lacy smoke of spruce resin, frankincense, juniper berry, oak leaves and angelica root. They will immediately feel the enclosed comfort of an ancient forest. Herbal, mystical resinous and warm woody scents surround them.
Your guests then enter a grassy sunbathing meadow, surrounded by herbs and pine trees as soon as they smell Vetiver. It has that distinct dry grass scent on a warm day. It has a bit of a citrusy note but mostly brings out the earthy sensation.
Add Mountain Pine to strengthen that refreshing crisp fresh air scent. The balsamic undertone adds to the mystery.
Let your guests discover the island in the forest with this dreamy Aufguss.
Komorebi
Sunshine filtering through the trees.
- Round 1: Peru Balsam EO
- Round 2: Ginger EO
- Round 3: Petitgrain Mandarin EO
What would Komorebi smell like? The stillness of soft golden sun rays touching the ground in a beautiful tree pattern.
Let’s capture this emotion by starting with Peru balsam. It has a warm, majestic, sweet and ambery resinous scent. It embodies the pleasant feeling of warm sun rays on your face, during the autumn cold. Peru Balsam warms the heart with its similar notes to vanilla, wood and cinnamon.
Ginger brings out the playfulness of the shadow. Warm, spicy and slightly lemony. This strong scent adds some power to the aufguss.
Petigrain Mandarin has the same captivating effect as Komorebi. You want to experience more of this complex, intense and sweet scent. The fruitiness brings up the color of the sun.
Your guests will leave your sauna with a warm, joyful and intense sensation.
Gourmand Delight
- Round 1: Smoke of the Mayan
- Round 2: Coriander EO
- Round 3: Blood Orange EO
Let’s create a lush, celebratory gourmand scent. This scent combination will drape around you like a warm blanket.
Smoke of the Mayans sets the tone with Copal, Cacao, Ginger, Cardamom and Cinnamon. It opens our heart and soul to enjoy lavish treats.
Coriander builds the bridge between fruity, herbal and citrussy. The perfect transition to the fresh, mysterious and yet complex Blood Orange twist.
Your guests will feel energized, empowered and joyful. And probably ready for some dessert.
As a nice extra, serve them a spicy Ginger Infusion after the session.
