The winter solstice is the shortest day of the year. The length of time elapsed between sunrise and sunset on this day is at a minimum for the year. From this point forward, the days begin to lengthen and deep in our hearts we begin to long for spring.
It's time for a respite. We anticipate all the beauty of spring when the first tender plant sprouts are brave enough to peak out of their winter hyphenations. Oh what a joy it is when you can say for certain that the green you see on the willow trees is real, and not just a hopeful remembrance of days gone by.
The tulips, crocus, and forsythia bravely put forth tender shoots and give us our first promise of natures splendor. Their only intent is to please our hungry eyes.
Now we can savor springtime, anytime of the year with fine skin care products added to our daily bathing routine, made with fine floral fragrances.
The floral fragrance family of scents is generally a single flower scent or is predominantly a single floral scent. The most notable examples are rose, jasmine, gardenia, and Ylang-Ylang. There are many others of course.
Synthetic fragrance oils may be used when the true natural essential oils are unavailable or unaffordable. A true rose otto essential oil for example, may cost from two to five thousand dollars for one pound. This is when we substitute a synthetic fragrance oil.
The humble yet beautiful lilac yields little to no essential oil. Substitution is needed.
