Rub under your nose when you have a cold

Hello, your complaint?
Blocked nose, cough, and slightly elevated temperature? Sounds like a cold. Please don't go to work this week, I prescribe you this potpourri from Santa Maria Novella, it's basically like Tiger Balm, just weaker - like chicken soup, only without the chicken, but please don't drink it! The herbs will give you strength and slowly get you back on your feet. Here's the recipe, get well soon!

Phew, finally home, let's follow the doctor's advice. Hmm, it says potpourri on the label, strange that it was recommended, what can dried flowers do? Well, let's put it under the nose.. and? Smells like herbs, not flowers. Rosemary, thyme.. and is that bay leaf in the background? It's hard to say for sure, the main thing is that it helps. Indeed - it reminds me of Tiger Balm, just weaker! Good thing, the real stuff would burn my nose hairs off. Pleasant. Later it seems less intense and more towards spices.. I can indeed smell the chicken soup, good thing the doctor warned me not to drink this stuff.

6 hours later, thankfully the medicine wears off, slowly the whole scent becomes lighter, the herbal, green, medicinal scent begins to say goodbye. It seems to have helped me indeed, but my nose needs a break now. The bottle goes into the medicine cabinet for next time, thankfully there's no risk of confusion with the rest of the collection due to the old-fashioned, medicinal-looking bottle. Good that I'm feeling better now, so the medicine cabinet can stay closed, along with this bottle, and I can now use my beloved fragrances again and take a break from this one.

For risks and side effects, please consult your doctor or pharmacist.
