Oil burners are a brilliant way to create a wonderful fragrance outdoors. This Polystone Heart Oil Burner from The Travelling Souk is lightweight and looks quite striking due to its size. It is 8cms tall and 23 cms in length and creates a wonderful centre piece for outdoor dining on a long summers evening.

Fill with your favourite aromatherapy lamp oil and let the continuous fragrance relax your mind and body. Aromatherapy is a commonly used reliever of stress, anxiety and depression and is also known for relieving minor ailments such as headaches and colds. Some oils, such as lavender, not only aid relaxation but are also commonly used for repelling insects.

This week at The Travelling Souk we received a box of samples from Old Mill Gifts. As soon as the box was opened a wonderful aroma filled our office and immediately we were all excited to see what lay inside. A personal favourite was this Branche d’Olive Fragrant Candle. Even the round gift box signifies luxury and before you have even lifted the lid you know that a real treat lies inside. And then once the lid is off you are immersed in the wonderful aroma of either Orange & Cinnamon, Green Fig, Garrigue or Verveine. Each one is as delicious as the next!

Keep your home smelling sweet with some Aromatic Tapers by Illumens at The Travelling Souk. They are a great alternative to other room fragrance products as they are more constant than potpourri or room sprays and are much safer then lighting scented candles. Scented oil is packaged into this beautiful small bottle. Once opened, place the tapers into the bottle and leave to absorb. As the tapers absorb the oil, the wonderful aroma is diffused into the air. To refresh the scent, the tapers can be turned over every one or two weeks. The oil itself should last for around 12 weeks in constant use.

Illumens Aromatic Tapers are £17.00 from The Travelling Souk and come in 12 wonderful scents including sweet lavender, frangipani and bluebell. They arrive beautifully packaged so make perfect gifts for birthday or house warming celebrations. Illumens Aromatic Tapers also come as part of the Illumens Aromatic Compendium Gift Set along with two lovely little votive candles and some matches all packaged in this lovely gift box.
