Miss Spencer's Headache Pillows
This intriguing mixture of floral and spicy scents
has been used virtually unchanged since Elizabethan times to
help those suffering from headaches. Early travellers and immigrants
to North America would frequently carry this mixture in a small
leather bag hung around their necks, which they would hold to
their nose and inhale deeply as soon as they felt the onset of
a headache. Our headache pillow can be carried in a pocket, jar,
or kit until it is needed - then place it near your nose, close
your eyes, and breathe deeply. Some say that it will even lull
you into a welcome sleep full of sultry dreams . . .

Miss Spencer's Deep Sleep Sachets
Herbs have been used for centuries to help those who have trouble
getting to sleep and those who sleep restlessly. Stronger than
our Sleep Sachets, and less sweet (more spicy) smelling, these
vintage linen sachets are filled with aromatics that aid in quieting
the mind, relaxing the body, and gently inducing sleep. Simply
tuck the sachet inside your pillow, close your eyes, and breathe
slowly and deeply. Travellers tell us that these sachets also
help them to sleep well in unfamiliar surroundings and even in
vehicles. We recommend these sachets for people who are having
a great deal of trouble sleeping, and our customers confirm to
us that they really work!

Miss Spencer's Sweet Bags
Since Elizabethan times, spicy sweet bags have been used to scent
both clothes and the body. Their exotic, heady scent is reputed
to have an enticing effect upon members of the opposite sex.

or simply tuck one into your pocket or bodice, these linen jacquard
sachets are the perfect complement to the well-dressed man or
woman.

Miss Spencer's Summer Meadows Sachet
If you have ever longed for the scent of a wildflower-filled
meadow, this sachet has been blended with you in mind. We’ve
combined not only flowers but herbs and spices to produce a heavenly
scent evocative of the fresh, clean country air on an early summer’s
day. Whether you choose to place this sachet inside a drawer
to scant your clothes, with stored linens or woolens to keep
them fresh and sweet-smelling, or in a vehicle to freshen it
and remove stale odours, you’ll find this wonderful, long-lasting
scent will remind you of simpler times and summery places.

Miss Spencer's Repose and Revive Sachet
Carefully blended for an enticing scent, our Repose
and Revive Sachet was originally created in the 17th Century
to help English courtiers drift off to a deep, pleaceful sleep,
from which they would awake relaxed and revitalized. Our recipe
combines spices, flowers, and herbs to produce a very different
and exotic scent that’s as delightful used insideyour pillowcase
as it is when tucked inside your unmentionables drawer or your
linen closet. One of our favourite uses is to hang this sachet
in a clothes closet inside a special outfit, where it gently
scents all of the clothing and evokes all of the opulence of
a royal court in days long past.

Miss Spencer's Sweet Dreams Sachet
This sachet is made with a very old recipe made popular
by the itinerant
herb and spice merchants of eighteenth-
century Italy. Originally touted as “A Sachet to Ease Melancholie,”
we’ve found that this works wonderfully to encourage a gentle
sleep filled with sweet dreams. Its delightful, spicy scent is
also an excellent addition to stored linens or woolens, and it
is strong enough to scent an entire closet if left out on a shelf
or hung from a hanger. We also suggest packing it in your suitcase
when you travel, to give all of your things a lovely scent that
evokes comforting thoughts of home.
