Rituals

When I visited my friend Daffym a while back I totally fell in love with the scent of the Rituals of Dao series. Rituals is a brand of signature fragrances for body and home. So I had to look into this brand. When looking at the website I found that Rituals have several series. But the website does not give justice to the different scents that are in the different series available. Not until it will be possible to smell thru you screen.

So when CasaR went to Kiel this fall holiday, I had to make a trip to the Rituals store in the Sophienhof shopping center. Don’t get me wrong, there are stores here in Oslo. I just haven’t prioritized to spend time visiting one. The store is set up with a very zen feeling which in turn promotes peace and traquility. DaddyO even commented that he was surprised that in a store with so many fragrances he didn’t feel bombarded with the different smells. Though with kids along I felt a bit like an elephant in a china shop as many of the containers in the store were made of glas or porcelain. I found several Ritual series I also liked and wanted to try. Needless to say I left quite a few $$$ in the store.

My favorites so far...
- Rituals of Dao
- Rituals of Sakura (you were spot on Daffym)
- Rituals of Karma
- Rituals of the Happy buddha (not sure about this one yet, but the girls loved it)

I opted for the room perfume option to get the fragrance in house. Unfortunately not all the Rituals series I liked, come in the home perfume variety. So I thought I would give the hair and body mist variety a try. Unfortunatly there’s a big difference in size and pricepoint between the two varieties...
Home fragrance in 500ml vs Hair & body mist in 50ml


The plan is to use these perfumes with the humidifier we have at home. We have several at home, but this is the one I have tried with the Rituals fragrance today. I bought this one on Aliexpress here.

I have the one with the dark wood look

This specific humidifier has a 550ml tank. That’s several hours of operation without needing to replenish the water. And with a few sprits of the home perfume, my home was filled with the Rituals of Dao in no time. My friend Daffym has gotten the perfume genie by Rituals. Being an Asian geek this should be right up my alley. A gadget that makes everything smell nice and can be controlled wirelessly using a smart phone (only for Android OS, so won’t work for iphones). Since CasaR is in Norway and we have a fireplace we use frequently, we need a humidifier to add some moisture to the air. The winters in Norway are dry enough...

A screenie fra the Rituals website

In the time to come I will try the different fragrances I picked up...maybe it’s time to figure out the different buttons on the remote control for the humidifier?

I’ve only been using the on/off button =D


- have you entered the world of Rituals?
- do you have a home fragrance?
