When I was younger, at school we were often asked questions about our favourite things, and my favourite smell was the garage in my old house (strange I know).
Sometimes there’s nothing like a good smell to lift the mood or create a certain setting. A nice floral smell can help cheer you up, bringing back fond memories of the summertime. A deep, musky smell can create a sensual, romantic setting. A powerful rich aroma can set the fullest belly rumbling.
Unfortunately, as I write this there is a strange smell emerging from the back of our old student house fridge, so I have had to take some measures to mask this smell with some of my favourite smelly things.
Johnson’s Baby Powder is an old favourite! Not ashamed to admit that I own this despite not being a baby, nor having a baby myself!
Skittles Scented Candles- I bought these Strawberry and Apple candles from Poundland and they are amazing!
Original Source Shower Gel- You can read more about this here!
Beyonce Pulse Perfume- Although I wouldn’t normally be fussed about celebrity perfume (my usual perfumes are Lacoste Touch of Pink, DKNY Summer and Armani Code) this is one of the nicest fragrances I have ever smelt!
Options Hot Chocolate- At only 40 calories a mug it’s pretty good for beating sugar cravings too!
