Reed Diffuser – White Lily and Ylang Ylang – Brooke and Shoals

Reed Diffuser – White Lily and Ylang Ylang – Brooke and Shoals

White Lily symbolizes purity for Roman Catholics. Medieval depictions of the Blessed Virgin Mary, especially at the Annunciation, often show her with these flowers in her hands or nearby. Additionally, Saint Joseph is frequently depicted with them to stress the Catholic belief in his chaste marriage with Mary, whom the Church teaches was always a virgin.

The essential oil Ylang Ylang is used in aromatherapy. It is believed to relieve high blood pressure, normalize sebum secretion for skin problems, and is considered to be an aphrodisiac. According to Margaret Mead, it was used as such by South Pacific natives such as the Samoan Islanders where she did much of her research. The oil from ylang-ylang is widely used in perfumery for oriental- or floral-themed perfumes (such as Chanel No. 5). Ylang-ylang blends well with most floral, fruit and wood scents.

In Indonesia, ylang-ylang flowers are spread on the bed of newlywed couples. In the Philippines, its flowers, together with the flowers of the sampaguita, are strung into a necklace (lei) and worn by women and used to adorn religious images.

This fragrance diffuser has a very refreshing lemon scent as you would expect. The Verbena is a much more subtle and more rare fragrance and used widely in traditional medicine and herbal tonics. According to Cancer Research UK, “essence therapists believe that using Verbena essences can help to increase your mental, emotional and spiritual wellbeing.

The Bergamot fragrance is also more subtle than the lemon but very complimentary.

Bergamot peel is one of the most common ingredients used in perfumery, prized for its ability to combine with an array of scents to form a bouquet of aromas which complement each other. Bergamot is a major component of the original Eau de Cologne composed by Farina at the beginning of the 18th century in Germany. The first record of bergamot oil as a fragrance ingredient was in 1714, to be found in the Farina Archive in Cologne.

Bergamot essential oil is popular in aromatherapy.

Alison Banton ( the founder of Brooke and Shoals) has created a fragrance that captures much off her blissful childhood spent in her grandmothers garden collecting flowers.

Elderflower got a modern twist recently as the central flavour in Meghan Markles wedding cake when she married Prince Harry.  The cathartic qualities of Rhubarb have been known for generations and the rose scent has long been associated with love, romance and health.

Take a look at this wonderful video showing where Alisons shop is based

Alison is happiest when she is creative, and it shines through in this unique scent. Brooke & Shoals was launched in 2004, a brand and a gift boutique in Greystones. It grew steadily to become Alison’s full-time focus in 2007, when she opened a second, bigger store in Dundrum Town Centre.

Brooke and Shoals founder Alison Banton  decided to create her own range of candles that were superior to other Irishmade candles on the market. Her vision was simple, high quality, divine fragrances, natural wax, beautiful packaging and Irish made. Her customers loved them. She built on her experience of fragrance by going to Grasse in the South of France, the capital of fragrance, to study it in more detail and gather new inspiration.

Sandalwood has been highly valued for its fragrance for centuries. Vanilla was first introduced to the west by the Conquistador Cortez and is even to this day Vanilla is the second most expensive spice to produce because it is so labour intensive. The addition of Salted Caramel to this scent completes this opulent fragrance with the enchantment of ancient sought after exotics with the modern comforting notes of caramel.

However an increasing number of enquiries from other stores to stock her ranges, led her to scale up the business to meet the growing demand for her high quality, Irish made, design-led products.

Fragrance and Memories Reed Diffuser – Glendalough

Glendalough is a magical place in Ireland. With sweeping hills and a quiet ancient monastery it embodies everything we love about a peaceful spring day in Ireland.

A wonderful video about Glendalough

Glendalough means a settlement between two lakes. The fragrance diffuser is crafted to encapsulate all the elements of this region.

Inspired by walks through the hallowed grounds of a 6th century monastery in Glendalough, Co. Wicklow, this bespoke fragrance combines leafy green fragrance notes with sweet woodland florals, resting on a soft earthy base evoking the vibrancy of the lush green Glendalough forest, glistening after an April shower

Fragrance and Memories Reed Diffuser - Glendalough
Fragrance and Memories Reed Diffuser – Glendalough

The monastery at Glendalough was founded in the 6th Century by Irish St Kevin.  

Glendalough, or the Glen of two Lakes, is one of the most important sites of monastic ruins in Ireland. Before the arrival of St. Kevin this glen would have been desolate and remote, and would have been ideal for a secluded retreat.  Glendalough, with its seven churches, became one of the chief pilgrimage destinations in Ireland.

This Reed Fragrance Diffuser will last up to 5 months and fill your home with all the magic of Ireland and this unique historical place. Made in Ireland using an alcohol-free glycerine base and contains high quality fragrance & essential oils. Includes natural rattan reed sticks
