Jasmine & White Frangipani Body, Room and Linen Spritz

I have a growing obsession with The Body Shop right now, it has been years since I have ventured into a store but just recently they have really caught my attention with the Banana range but whilst browsing instore, I came across the home fragrance section and had to hold myself back from not purchasing the entire range of candles and room sprays!  I love room sprays and my dream is to have the Jo Malone Pomegranate Noir Spray in my house, but in the meantime, this one will do.

The one scent I was definitely not leaving without, as well as most of the Banana range, was this Jasmine & White Frangipani Body, Room and Linen Spritz which is just beautiful.

Described as being a multipurpose spritz it can be used around the house, on the body or even on fresh linen to give it that little extra scent.   I absolutely love the scent of Jasmine and a lot of my favourite scents contain Jasmine as one of the notes.   What I love about this scent is how beautifully floral it is.  It uses Ylang Ylang and Cassis to provide the initial scent of the fragrance, so with this, you get a fruity scent from the Cassis which is almost blackcurrant but then the Ylang Ylang which brings in some floral tones.  However, for me, it is both Tuberose and Frangipani which are the dominant notes and work so well alongside the inclusion of Community Trade Organic Honey.

I use this spray in the lounge and in the bedroom daily and if I spritz it in the morning, by the time i get home from work, the scent still lingers which means it lasts for around 9 hours, much longer than other room sprays that I have tried.  I have also used it on freshly laundered towels as I hang them out to dry and the scent settles so well on them.  The only way I haven't used this spray is as a body spray.

For a 100ml bottle, this Jasmine & White Frangipani Body, Room and Linen Spritz retails for £7 and there are other scents available such as Pomegranate and Raspberry, Aloe and Soft Linen, Mandarin and Tangelo plus Green Tea and Lemon.

Infini Roses - The Real Roses which last a year

I absolutely love having fresh flowers at home, they brighten up the smallest of places and create the most amazing natural fragrances but the downside is, at best they only last for 7-10 days maximum. Some of my favourite flowers I choose for the scent - Sunflowers, Peonies and Roses for example, everything I grow in the garden alongside various tomato plants, another scent I just adore. The downside to flowers as well as how long they last is the cost, it can become quite an expensive to keep buying flowers, so what if I said there was a box of roses that you could purchase that could last an entire year?

Infini Roses are a UK based retailer which specialise in real roses that last a whole year. All of their roses are picked at the point of perfection and naturally preserved to last for at least one year. 
At INFINI, we value quality and design above all else. Our team works passionately to provide unique and trending floral products without compromise. We also know that time is precious, so we made shopping simple. With an extensive range of styles and colours, you are bound to find what you need all in one place.
I was given the chance to try some of these roses for myself and with over 20 different shades of rose to choose from, the hardest part was that decision. In the end, I opted for the Classic Cube Box in black and it contains 9 real roses. Each rose undergoes an intricate and eco-friendly process to preserve the quality and beauty of the petals while living much longer than your average high street rose. I opted for the Aqua Marine shade of rose and it is just so stunning, as soon as I opened the package I was wowed by how vibrant the blue is against the black box.

With prices starting at £79 for a box collection, prices rise depending upon what it is you are looking for and likewise the boxes and roses are available in different sizes, shapes, finishes and with it comes the ability to ship worldwide.

I have had my roses for just under 2 weeks and given the heat we have just had, they have kept their shape, they haven't drooped or faded either, they look just fantastic. If like me you are not too green fingered and like easy flowers, then these Infini Roses are perfect because you don't need to trim the bottom, you don't need to water them, your only challenge is to keep them out of direct sunlight and high humidity.

These roses are just absolutely stunning and make such an incredible gift and if you love roses as much as I do, they also save you a whole lot of money over the year!
