S C E n T - S AT I o n A l A R o m AT h E R A p y T R E AT m E n T S Awakening of the Senses The Ritz-Carlton, Amelia Island Long associated with weddings, rosemary sharpens memory and enlivens the mind. Drawing upon the healing powers of this woodsy herb, this treatment melds a body scrub and short rinse under a Vichy shower, followed by a stimulating full body massage. Lavender Herbal Tonic Bath The Ritz-Carlton, Dallas Calming lavender essential oil makes this bath an ideal treatment for the fatigued bride. Lavender balances emotion, lifts spirits, and restores strength. Pair this pampering bath with one of the spa’s custom massages for much-needed relaxation and rejuvenation. Silver Rain Facial at Silver Rain, a La Prairie Spa The Ritz-Carlton, Grand Cayman This 90-minute treatment begins with a cleansing facial and juniper-based mask. Next, droplets of bergamot, jasmine and sandalwood-infused oils are poured onto the face and shoulders, mimicking the sensation of rain. This heady blend of aromas refreshes and uplifts, boosting confidence and stimulating improved circulation. Relax Bath Add a hint of sexiness, but not too much, with vanilla, Delacourte suggests. “It blends all the other notes together and also heightens the intimacy between husband and wife as she approaches.” Used as a base note, vanilla is linked to desire and passion, without being overly sweet. PhoTogRaPh by LauRa JohaNSoN/geTTy Alluring The Ritz-Carlton, Cancun The healing properties of delicate orange blossom and lavender essential oils combine with cooling eucalyptus during this restorative bath. Rich in bioflavonoids, orange blossom not only calms nerves, but also fights free radicals and sun damage; meanwhile, prized lavender relaxes and soothes. Arabian Rose Body Ritual The Ritz-Carlton, Sharm El Sheikh Nourish skin with a gentle oatmeal scrub, followed by a rich massage using fragrant damask rose essential oil and Spanish almond oil. This simple yet luxurious ritual produces a harmonizing and balancing effect on body and mind, which is especially important for any bride-to-be. 45
