Essential oils are an inexpensive, multipurpose tool for any home. They can be used in diffusers to scent a room, in a bath tub for a nice, restful bath or they can be combined to create a custom scent (though they need to be diluted for this purpose). Whether you prefer to use them for aromatherapy or just like the way they make the room smell, there are several stores in Denver where you can find them.
