GERANIUM RITUAL
Geranium is the scent on which Bamford was built; it embodies the philosophy and essence of the brand.
Carole Bamford has harbored a lifelong fascination with geraniums, drawn to their captivating scent since childhood. Fond memories of bath time linger, where she would eagerly reach for the green bottle of Floris's Rose Geranium, infusing the house with an uplifting, mossy aroma with just a few drops. This fragrance holds a special place in her heart, evoking nostalgia and a sense of grounding, providing a reassuring comfort that endures over time.
Our best-loved Geranium collection features a natural essential oil blend of geranium, energising eucalyptus, refreshing peppermint and lavender, designed to uplift the mood. Not only reflecting Carole’s lifelong love for Geraniums, it is a balancing leaf – a known antidepressant that can also help reduce excess fluid in the body and puffiness in the limbs. It is a very calming, grounding botanical, both mentally and physically, and promotes harmony in the body.
“I grow over 100 geranium varieties in my greenhouse, so it felt natural that they would inspire our first line of Bamford products. To me, their scent is heaven - so uplifting and joyful, evoking memories of home and of family.”
