SACHET OF DRIED ROSES
FRAGRANT UNDERWEAR A very clever way to give fragrance to one's underwear is to make a pad of georgette, dried rose leaves, and your favourite sachet. Make a soft cushion, the exact size of the bottom of your drawer, and into a big bowl put enough dried roses to make the pad about 2in. thick. Then put in about an ounce of sachet. If it is a very decided perfume, half an ounce is sufficient. Then mix the sachet and rose leaves thoroughly until the two are blended. Fill your envelope. When your lingerie is placed on the pad it becomes impregnated with the fragrance of the sachet. Your dress and coat hangers should all have tied to them small sachet-bags made like the lingerie pad. Before dressing your hair, spray it with perfume, using a perfume spray. There is no more alluring charm, surely none more feminine, than delicately perfumed hair. The hair should always be perfumed after a shampoo, and if you wish, a little scent may be poured into the rinsing water.
