My favourite
My favourite. I love this scent. Not too strong and not too sweet but just lovely citrus scent. I used this in the bathrooms and is always smelling lovely. I occasionally add some drops to a citrus melting wax and place it in my warmer. The entire house is scented.
Report this reviewFull fat milk?!!
I’ve only given one star as I haven’t tried the product yet! I’m wondering why the instructions say you can add this to ‘full fat milk’? I have visions of Eastern royalty adding this fragranced oil to their milk baths while they gracefully wade in or images of an unsatisfied baby wondering what this odd citrusy taste is in his/her milk bottle! Please clarify :) What am I missing?
Report this reviewFresh and zingy
Has a lovely fresh and zingy smell. My parents kept asking what the lovely smell was when they came around so I bought them some too.
Report this reviewHubby's Favourite!
This is my husband's favourite! It's refreshing and cleansing. I would definitely recommend it. It a fresh and slightly lemony scent but not too overpowering. N.Y hasn't let me down
