Feel free to use this thread to talk about your favorite scents. ^_^

Lavender as an Oil

I normally use it for my depression and insomnia.
---------------------------------------------------------
Sandalwood as an Incense

I generally burn it for protection and to clear out negative energy.
---------------------------------------------------------
Vanilla, one of my absolute favorites

It vitalizes energy, promotes a happy and healthy environment, attracts good fortune, enhances mental stimulation, used in spells to enhance physical energy.
Vanilla incense is burned for love, lust, healing, luck and mental powers.

I think my favorite oil would have to be eucalyptus. It's almost like peppermint, but less "Christmasy" and more relaxing. My second favorite, and one I would use more, is pomegranate oil. I use it in a lot of incenses I make, and use it as offerings for Aphrodite.

Gardenia is my favorite for white candles. I use this for meditation.

I like frankincense for prayers to Ares. They have this manly fatherly smell in my opinion.

For oils I get fruity stuff to anoint candles. Candles that already smell like fruit are way too strong. It's better if I can apply it subitly myself as to not over do it.

Vanilla is an absolute no, I hate the scent. That and birthday cake, it smells so bad.

Other scents I like are rose, white sage, lilac, lavander, rain/ocean, and so forth.

My favorite oil is lavender. I use it a lot to help promote sleep. I also use it for anointing my altar candles.

For incense, I am very fond of sandalwood and patchouli. I use them a lot during rituals to Bast (along with the lavender oil) and in combination with sage for cleansing purposes.
