Fab Find of the Week: Aromatherapy Associates x Laundress

AROMATHERAPY_ASS_X_THE_LAUNDRESS_MAIN.jpg

Today happens to be wash day, traditionally. But there is NOTHING traditional about our most fabulous find this week, which is set to transform Mondays from here on in.

The Laundress is a celebrated, um, yes, LAUNDRY products brand whose wares, once upon a time, we’d lug back from America in a suitcase, when we discovered it soon after launch in 2002. Laundry products. In our luggage. Thing is, they were THAT good.

Now, our much-loved Aromatherapy Associates have collab-ed with them to create the most sensorially powerful range of cleaning luxuries. They really are luxuries, but we look at this two ways: if they turn a drudge into a pleasure, that’s a virtue in itself. Second, these are genuinely aromatherapeutic - as Aromatherapy Associates’ Anna Teal puts it, ‘With its potent essential oils, our home collection allows you to layer and combine our powerful blends to create a truly 360, multi-sensory experience – creating those moments of reset we all crave.’ Sounds like hype, but actually isn’t.

Fact: we will be selfish with this range, though. We will not use it for washing teenagers’ grubby sports socks, but for our own special flimsies; The Signature Detergent/£35 for 475ml, comes in a choice of Forest Therapy and Deep Relax – just fab for your nightie and pillowslips, where it can really help wind you down for bed.

While we won’t exactly be saving the Laundress x Aromatherapy Associates Dish Soap (in Support Breathe)/£25, for ‘best’, though, we’re probably going to use it when we’ve time to be a bit more mindful about doing the washing-up.

However, bathrooms and kitchens are definitely destined to smell of Laundress x Aromatherapy Associates Surface Cleaner Support Breathe/£25 for 475ml, from here on in, because the head-clearing, centering scent really does linger in the room after use – and who doesn’t want to stop, pause and have a mindful moment, when walking into a room…?

Bottom line: housework just became about 200 times much more appealing…
