Went for a browse around The White Company today and it smells so nice and cosy. Like a spa hotel!
However I cant afford to buy a collection of their candles and diffusers so looking for your alternatives to make my house have a similar vibe?

Many top hotels have a signature scent- so whatever distributor you use I'd try and pick a dominant scent you like and theme around that rather than random candles etc

Please be aware that these oils can be toxic to humans and animals despite how amazing they smell.

Don't get a fucking Labrador.

Please don't do any of the above if you have pets they can be toxic

The M&S apothecary range is very spa like and much cheaper than White Company!

Definitely this range!
This is what I wanted my new bathroom to be like and with this range (especially the spray) it smells like a nice spa!

Neom do an oil called Scent to Destress Real Luxury, which I think smells exactly like a lovely cosy spa room. The oil is about £25, but it’s really concentrated so you only need a few drops in a diffuser/mister and it lasts a long time. I’ve had a bottle for about a year and only just running low, so I think it’s pretty cost effective. Also in the bath; heaven!

I buy the Pecksniffs candles from Tkmaxx

Not the rollerball ones! The essential oils...

Get a diffuser and a few drops of these. Heaven.

Buy essential oils from this shop on eBay. They’re great. Get some cheap oil burners or diffusers and place them around the house.
