Help me buy someone an "aromatherapy set," please!

[krystee]

I picked a tag from a nursing home angel tree and the person wants an aromatherapy set (as do many others on the tree--it seems like the seniors got to pick from five or six predetermined gift options).



Anyway, I searched that on Amazon and got essential oil diffusers. I am nearly certain a nursing home doesn't want 50 different oil diffusers going on their floors, so what do they mean? Would you consider that to be a set of lotions/bath stuff with aromatherapy scents? Something else? Deadline is in two days, so I need to buy something quickly!

Can you call the nursing home and see if they had something particular in mind?

I can, but I figured I'd try here first in case this is a well-known thing that I'm just not personally familiar with! Looks like it's not, so I will call tonight.

My first guess would be things from the aromatherapy line at Bath & Body Works. I think calling to confirm is a great idea, especially if it was a common gift request.

I got a nice organic one set at Costco for about $20. No idea how great it is because it's what Santa is bringing me.

These are the kind you roll onto your wrists and don't use a diffuser so this may be what type of product they're asking for.

Do they mean the old school kind that are just lotions, soaps, and candles, like this: www.bedbathandbeyond.com/store/product/pure-energy-apothecary-nourishing-balance-pure-aromatherapy-gift-set-with-basket/1062349246?keyword=aromatherapy ?

This is what I was thinking (although probably without a candle if I can find one), but I will call tomorrow morning to confirm.

I used to work in nursing homes/senior living. This is what I would get.

If you are looking for reasonably priced essential oils, I believe Plant Life is a good option. I know there can be issues with impurities and other things in the oils (which is what the MLM ones tout but is true to some extent because FDA doesn't regulate them).
