Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does Sunlit Lavender smell like?
A: Lavender and lily on top with a woody base and lemon lifting it, so it is calmer than a herbal lavender and brighter than a floral. It suits a bedroom particularly well.

Q: Is lavender a good scent for somebody who wants to relax?
A: Lavender is the scent most people associate with winding down, which suits somebody who has just stopped working. The woody base keeps it from smelling like a spa product.

Q: Which room is lavender best in?
A: A bedroom or a bathroom, because it is a soft scent that suits a small space and an evening. A kitchen tends to overwhelm it.

Q: Does this suit a woman who does not like sweet scents?
A: Lavender with lemon and woods has no vanilla or sugar in it at all, which is why it goes to people who find dessert scents cloying. It reads clean.

Q: Can I burn this while I am reading in bed?
A: Put it on a hard surface clear of curtains and bedding, and put it out before falling asleep. Never leave a lit candle in a room you are not awake in.

Q: How is this different from the kraft version of the same saying?
A: The saying is the same; this white jar is Sunlit Lavender and the natural kraft one is Caribbean Retreat. Pick on the scent and the label.
