I need to grow a bigger garden! Lots of ideas for making potpourris, sachets, toilet water, etc. Some sound like potions; I have no idea where I'm going to find the ingredients but that'll be part of the journey.

I loved this book and found a used copy at a books sale. I originally read it in 1992 and wrote down several of the recipes. It is very straight forward and easy to use. Beautiful scents and combinations!
