    Heel fijn om samen met je partner, vrienden of familie te doen. Wel moeilijk om de juiste combinatie te maken, maar dat maakt het juist leuk. Even echte ME time ook. Min puntje… basisgeuren als Vanille, Sandelhout, Jasmijn… ontbraken. Vooral heel zoete geuren. Daarom mijn 4 sterren. Toch tevreden met resultaat.
