For the love of Grapefruit!

We live in grapefruit country.

Not unusual to see a huge 16 wheel semi carrying a whole

passel of shiny golden-yellow fruit from grove to packing house...to shipping point.

Fresh cut grapefruit is an intoxicating smell.

awakening, refreshing...even tingling. Not sweet or subdued...but rife with the pungent panic of life... NOW! Live now! Awake now!

I was tickled pink to win The Inspired Room's recent give away of

an Urban Botanic Scent fest. Oh!

It arrived yesterday. A simple and gorgeous white electric scent pot, with three vials

of essentail oils. Grapefruit, Mandarin and Pomegranite

Just three drops of the Grapefruit essence surrounded my entire kitchen with a very natural and lifting fragrence of FRESH CUT GRAPEFRUIT! No imitation or cloying smell...just the reality of zest. Fresh and clean.

Beautiful.

The mandarin vial was just as natural smelling, the pomegranite had a tad more kick.

What fun we had layering them. a drop of this...two of that..a whisper of this.

I LOVE this idea.

Thank you, thank you Inspired Home for gifting me...and Urban Botanics for inspiring me.

...now I want to buy some as gifts......but how to choose from the bevy of scents!

Love it!
