My perfume Pan calmed me right down. Ahhhhhh.........serenity. Others

swear by my Temple, and I created it to help people in crisis, but the

Oud is too strong for me. Pan....aaahhh. I'm in the middle of bottling

some rush orders that surprised me, label problems/printer

problems/communication problems. Ahhhhh......

I find labdanum and especially amber (labdanum, benzoin, vanilla)

very soothing.

Neroli/orange blossom, lavender, clary sage, and chamomile especially.  I find

spearmint and peppermint very refreshing as well, although I have to say, almost

all my aromatics put me in a happy place!
