A Valentine's Date Itinerary for Romantic Evening at Home

Oh, l'amour!  Nothing sets the mood quite like the warm glow of candle light and some soft music.

Actually, in a famous study conducted by Dr. Alan R. Hirsch of the Smell & Taste Treatment and Research Foundation in Chicago*, certain scents were found to stimulate arousal more than others.  Dr Hirsch revealed one of the most notable scents for sexual arousal (especially for increasing penile blood flow in men) was lavender!  Interested in the concept, read the study.

The science behind it might not seem so sexy, but you may find that working lavender into your romantic evening may help things get steamy, faster.

 

Using Lavender as an Arousal Stimulant

For those of us with sweethearts, Valentine's Day brings a welcome excuse to warm our hearts with a little romance.  If you're pining about what to do for your love this holiday, we put together a sensual itinerary featuring the scent and taste of lavender for a fairytale evening together in the comfort of your own home.
Oh, la la!

Start the Evening by Sharing Some Lavender Chocolates

Chocolates are well-known for their endorphin-increasing qualities.  Imagine what adding a touch of lavender to these already-stimulating treats will contribute to your evening plans with your sweetheart.

After your Valentine's Day dinner, round out your dessert with some of our handcrafted Organic Lavender Chocolates or drizzle our decadent Lavender Bittersweet Chocolate Sauce on top of cake or ice cream!

Warm Your Bodies with a Therapeutic Lavender Massage

A gentle massage can improve circulation and lower blood pressure, which may help you relax and increase healthy blood flow to more fully enjoy the tender moments in the bedroom with your partner.

Our handcrafted Lavender Massage Oil is designed to warm quickly in the hand and absorb slowly into the skin, allowing for a longer, more luxurious and sensual massage.

Elevate the ambience with a lavender-scented candle or two.  We make candles in a variety of sizes and styles, and all of our candles are handcrafted using lead-free wicks and the finest soy waxes, along with our own farm-distilled organic essential oil, not the cheaper and far more common artificial "fragrance" or "essence."

Wash Off in a Romantic Candlelit Lavender Bubble Bath

Round out the evening with a wash in the bath to rinse off any lingering oil and leave your skin feeling soft, supple, scented and ready for your lover's caress.

Try our very bubbly and aromatic Lavender Bubble Bath, which is packaged in a 40% post recycled glass bottle.  When you run out, we offer refills so you can reuse the beautiful glass bottle again and again.  Don't forget, of course, to stage some candles near the bath to continue the ambience.

We hope you enjoy some of this sensual itinerary with your romantic partner this holiday.  Happy Valentine's Day to you and the love in your life!
