I love Basil and it also can make a home fragrant . The more it is picked the more it grows . Even my hands smell nice after I pick it.


I love basil too !

I have five Rosemary shrubs in my yard. I love to rub the leaves.

I also love the fragrance of my Chaparral shrub.

Lavender, rosemary, sage....it reminds me of the cooler weather and autumn....but I also love the aroma of nutmeg, lemon, and vanilla. I think aromas cause us to recall favorite times in the past. Our favorite memories.

For me it would have to be orange blossoms but now that I live in the PNW I love the smell of tarragon on my hands.

I was just cutting some rosemary for a recipe, and I can’t stop smelling my hand.  I love the smell of fresh herbs 🌿, but I must say rosemary is my favorite. What is your favorite aroma, not perfume, just an everyday scent ?


 

 

@QVCkitty1   I agree, I have many different varieties in my garden, and the flowers in Spring are gorgeous!  I planted some so that I can brush by them and I can have the scent on me all day.  I grow sage, many types of oregano and thyme, marjoram, basil, and parsley, so nice to be able to cut some for meals.

Fresh herbs make such a difference.

Grew up with a yard full of catalpa trees.  When they flower in June....they smell so wonderful.
