Juniper Ridge Cabin Spray: 'Cascade Glacier'


source: juniperridge.com 

Everyone who shares a small-ish apartment with several cats will agree that room sprays are brutally essential to your life. Both of our cats are extremely proud of the strong odor their visits to the litter box produces and like to demonstrate it as soon as we enter the room. They have every reason to boast, it's rather impressive. Needless to say, it was not hard to justify getting each cat their own fancy Le Labo room spray (Cedre 11 for the lady, Santal 26 for the gentleman). But once our cats had their luxurious home fragrances, it seemed unfair we would continue using just a cheap, terribly chemical-smelling spray for our bathroom. Luckily, on a very recent trip to Urban Outfitters, we spotted Juniper Ridge's Cabin Sprays. 

The great thing about Juniper Ridge's products is that they are 100% real, plant-based fragrances. As fans of weird, 'non-pretty' fragrances we were delighted with how all of their sprays smelled. We decided to get Cascade Glacier. Its scent profile reads, "Evergreen forest, snowmelt, bright citrus, Christmas, the Timberline Trail on Oregon’s Mt. Hood, where Fir and Pine give way to ice-age glaciers". Like all the cabin sprays it was "distilled from plants, conifers, bark, moss, mushrooms, and other things found hiking in the Oregon backcountry". I have never been hiking in the Oregon backcountry, but the aroma seems familiar from the wet mossy grounds and resin-coated fir trees in the wintery forests in Switzerland, where I grew up. It's striking how all the natural ingredients stick out in this spray. So if you like any of the "things" used for its distillation, you are almost certainly going to love these home fragrances.
