      I am always taken by their packaging…but have never tried any of it.

    This looks lovely, though I’ll warrant it doesn’t really smell like jacaranda blossoms. Demeter, are you listening?

      Would not surprise me if it didn’t!

    When we first moved to Florida we had a HUGE jacaranda tree in our front yard. I absolutely loved it because it was just covered in such beautiful lavender flowers! Consequently, our entire front lawn (such as it is in Florida) was blanketed in lavender. ❤️ Last time I took a drive by the old homestead the tree was gone. 😢 I don’t remember them smelling like anything in particular though…

      The flowers smell nice but then terrible as they wilt…but my experience is minimal, so if the shower gel smelled like anything pretty that would be good enough for me 🙂

    We have jacaranda in San Diego which I love, but never noticed a smell.
