Aromatic Holiday Decorations

Neighbourhood Botanicals' Smelly Baubles are Naturally Scented

— December 4, 2020 — Lifestyle
Neighbourhood Botanicals' Smelly Baubles are all-natural Riso-printed, scented holiday decorations that are launching just in time to decorate the tree. Created in collaboration with artist Maria Midttun, the baubles are ready to suspend from car mirrors and desk accessories, so that they can offer comforting natural scents.

The Smelly Baubles share the scents of clove, cardamom, frankincense, nutmeg, juniper and sweet orange, promising a "piney lovely Xmas scent." Created with natural oils and a natural-based fixative, the festive holiday decorations are said to have a subtle scent that's not overpowering like some fragrance oils.

The paper cards are mindfully packaged in sets of three within Nativia cornstarch sleeves that look like plastic but is actually a material that's competely compostable, recyclable and biodegradable.
