That was a tough-guy post. You know what also is very calming? Orange mist. If you take the oil from orange skins, and perfume-ize them, they are comforting - and elating!- as well.

Lemon-cucumber is also calming.

LOL to the tough guy, my Aunt taught me when I was young to take a drag off a cigarette, a pull on the whiskey bottle and a drag of cigarette......... Best chaser of all.

Try soaking your orange peel in the dark in Vodka, the highest proof possible.

Lots of sprays are made with the oils, water and lavender.

I always had a 'minds eye view' of me explaining to some cop, "No Sir, I don't drink, I sprayed the vodka on my body so that I would smell good."

LOL

So never made it, but did buy a half gallon to use, had forgotten it. That is what I get for reading recipes on the Internet.
