SPA body care - how (and which) scents relax and revitalize us

SPA njega tijela – kako nas (i koji) mirisi opuštaju i revitaliziraju

Scents are triggers of memories, nostalgia and emotions. They affect our mood, even certain conditions, so they can both cause and relieve headaches - depending on how lucky we are and the sensitivity of the body. If you personally prefer unscented facial cosmetics, and you still want to add a little glamor to your care that will cheer you up and relax, perfume bodycare products with luxurious and complex scents are something you need in your bathroom. It is good to choose fragrances based on perfume notes, as with perfumes , and below we present some of the most historically prominent and most loved. Selection by notes will enable a targeted search for suitable fragrances, but also easier combination with favorite perfumes.

Rose

Just as there are a "little million" types of roses, there are also an enormous number of rose fragrances. Often this scent is polarizing, and many tend to associate it exclusively with one, somewhat retro and even old-fashioned, "dusty" and sometimes powdery-heavy scent of rose. However, this is only one of the options. The rose scent can lean towards the green side, especially if the perfume composition is strengthened with geranium and green notes such as galbanum and violet leaf. A rose can also smell very youthful, optimistic and fresh, if the composition contains fruity and sweet notes such as grapefruit, pear, raspberry, sandalwood and vanilla. These are some of the notes that adorn the scent of Rose's collection for body care. Whatever perfume composition you choose, you will choose it for its beauty, but also for its effect on our well-being. The smell of roses relieves stress, promotes a positive mood, and according to some studies, also improves concentration.

Ylang-ylang

Many are not familiar with this perfume note and flower, but perhaps they could recognize its beauty, which stands out through large white flowers with yellow details, or the splendor of the fragrance in a dry oil or body lotion. It has a rich, sensual and almost "velvety" fragrance that simply evokes creaminess, summer, intoxication and exoticism. As with rose, ylang ylang can reduce stress and anxiety and promote feelings of calm and relaxation. In addition, the smell of ylang ylang is associated with improving mood and increasing feelings of happiness. It is also believed that this note can increase self-confidence and feelings of attractiveness, and is used in aromatherapy to achieve emotional balance. It is said that the smell of ylang ylang can improve the quality of sleep, which is essential for general emotional well-being. Due to its strength and penetration, it is often used in the middle of a perfume composition or a perfume pyramid, just like in the Magical Collection where it is in the rich company of coconut, vanilla, jasmine, peach...

Cedar

Lovers of calming and grounding notes will come to their senses with the fragrant note of cedar. Cedar has a distinctive, rich and earthy scent that is often described as woody, subtle and balsamic. Its scent is fresh, penetrating, energetic but also warm, with resinous and spicy hints. If we were to talk about associations, cedar definitely hints at moderation, depth, comfort, wisdom, self-confidence and comfort. Due to its characteristics, cedar is often used as a base note in perfumes, where it can provide durability and stability to the fragrance composition. It is important to note that this note is equally loved by both women and men and is completely unisex when it comes to wearing it.

Vanilla

Warm, gourmand, sweet, creamy, delicate, seductive, penetrating, pleasant, delicious, slightly smoky, slightly spicy and balsamic, attractive and irresistible... All these are the characteristics of a powerful vanilla fragrance that is said to be like an aphrodisiac. The fact that it is found in numerous perfumes certainly helps. You will agree, vanilla definitely has a calming effect, which can help reduce stress and negative everyday emotions. The smell of vanilla reminds many of us of the beauty of the holidays, the warmth of home and spending time with loved ones over holiday sweets - but vanilla is not only a winter scent. It wears very well in the summer and is also, as a note, found in the Magical Dry Oil, the Magical Shimmer Body Lotion and other products from the collection. Its warm and sweet fragrance helps to create a feeling of relaxation and comfort, which contributes to relaxation and revitalization. Due to its calming properties, vanilla can improve the quality of sleep. Its scent helps to relax before going to bed, facilitating faster falling asleep and deeper sleep.

Liquorice

The smell of licorice is often polarizing, as those who often find it in teas know where it gives a sweet herbal note, but read on - it is absolutely wonderful in perfume compositions that contain other warm, nutty and gourmand notes . This is a deep, strong, rich and sweet scent with hints of earthiness and anise-like spice. Licorice can also have a slightly "tea-like" bitter-herbal smell, and precisely such tones give it complexity and depth. With notes such as almond and tonka, vanilla and jasmine, as is the case with the Crystal body care collection, the scent of licorice stands out for its warmth, comfort and comfort - and such characteristics certainly evoke feelings of relaxation and revitalization.
