Hi Mums

I love the smell of Calpol plug ins and in a perfect world I'd have one permanently in my daughter's room regardless of whether she has a cold or not! But, that's obviously not feasible given the cost of them!

Has anyone found anything else that smells similar? Perhaps an air freshner, room spray, candle, wax melt etc.? It doesn't have to be a cold remedy, I'm just after something that smells the same.

Thanks!

Wax melts sorry!

Some wax places do the Vicks style smell in wax melts which smell amazing

Thanks. This is the calpol medicine rather than the plug in.

Parma Violet!! I think this is the sweet scent that isn't listed when you see the Calpol Plug description.
See my photo (attached) for the essential oils I've used to replica the smell of the plug-in.
I use a drop of each, with a few extra drops of lavender and parma violet in my diffuser and I get a similar lovely scent.
Make sure you purchase organic oils with no nasties in them.

Nikura seems like a decent brand for a good price. I got 15% off for being a new customer and they have flash sales (today there's 60% off!).
