KEPT FOR:
WHAT YOU'VE BEEN DOING
Upstairs, liking flowers acquired conditions. They must be wild, sculptural or printed very faintly on linen. A straightforward rosy smell risks being called old-fashioned by somebody who owns six identical cream vases. So you learned to say green floral and look considered. Geranium notices the manoeuvre. It also happens to be green and floral, which is convenient but not an apology.
The cream vases have declined to comment.
Strong and floral with a rosy heart, green leaf running through it and light hints of mint and apple. Steam distilled from leaves, stalks and flowers grown in Egypt, it carries both bloom and stem: sweetness held upright by fresh green character. Composed, yes. Timid, absolutely not.
The flower and the stem, both refusing to be edited out.
WHAT WUNDERWURLD KEEPS IT FOR
In Scent Sanctum, geranium organic essential oil is kept for rosy green, garden room, floral backbone, taste unsoftened. The product is doing the work itself.
SPIRIT & MOOD
WHY YOU NEED IT
You may call it floral. Nothing adverse will happen.
The sensible bit
FOR THE UNAPOLOGETIC FLOWER PERSON
They do not say botanical when they mean floral. Reward the clarity.
Rosy, green and stated plainly.
FOR THE GARDEN ROOM
Real leaves, imperfect pots and one chair facing the right way. Give it a stronger bloom.
Flower and stem together.
FOR THE CREAM-ROOM DEFECTOR
They are one scent away from admitting the neutral era has ended.
The vases will survive.
DO NOT GIVE TO
Anyone whose highest praise is you can barely smell it. Geranium has not trained for invisibility.
Wrong brief. Excellent flower.
Three bottles, one clear reason. Full-price kits until Steve sets a saving.
Call it a nuanced botanical accent if you need cover. Mention the green architecture of the stem. Point towards the cream vase. Everyone will understand you remain a serious person.
Let geranium fill the room with flower, leaf and a little mint-apple edge. Strong enough to notice, green enough to stand upright, lovely without requiring a rebrand.
