Molton Brown Rose Absolu shower gel bought in the outlet.
I adore Roses.

I am picking up new glasses this week and have decided to indulge myself with a third pair, using my golden ticket.
I can't go on holiday any more, so I am blowing my holiday savings. 😉

Not necessarily an indulgence but as Urmstongran the smell takes me back to past Christmas’s with my Mum.

About 30 years ago my daughter who was about 6 bought my Mum some Badedas for Christmas. It became a tradition that whatever my daughter bought her it always included Badedas.

When she died 10 years ago, I don’t know why but in the December I bought myself some Badedas. And I have now bought it every year since. It always brings back happy memories of my Mum and also my daughter as a young girl.

Something lovely about a hand soap that smells good and leaves hands feeling soft.
My indulgence is a nice soft scarf, it has to be light weight, fringed and multi coloured.
In the process of downsizing I gave many to the charity shop but found I have room after all so now I can start a new collection.

I love soap the smells good too, though I use a bar soap.

My current indulgence is using natural fibres when I'm knitting. More expensive than the synthetics but I enjoy using bamboo so much more.

Mine is this hand soap from a Scottish company. I first came across it washing my hands in an hotel in Plockton in the Wester Ross on holiday two years ago. It smells divine and I’ve bought it ever since. It’s expensive but the smell of it transports me back there with sweet memories every time I use it. I feel guilty because it’s in a plastic dispenser so have to forgo my bar soap but I do so love it! Hence, it’s my indulgence.

What’s yours?
