A gentle fragrance to help heal - sorry sad

Sorry for such a sad post. I am miscarrying a much longed-for baby. At the moment none of my fragrances help, and I think it will be a while before I can wear them again. Can anyone suggest something gentle, comforting and tender that I can consider for the weeks to come? I'm not really up to large-scale sampling so would like a make a shortlist. Plus I lent all my Lutens/Goutal/Caron samples from Les Senteurs to a friend to choose a gift for his wife.

Thank you all so much, your thoughts and prayers and suggestions are truly appreciated.

The rose suggestions are striking a chord - I started to miscarry on Feb 15th when the front room had a massive vase of red roses from my darling husband from Valentines Day. He was so excited about being a father, and now he is struggling too. I wondered about En Passant too, also Angeliques sous la pluie, both of which samples are with my friend at present. I think he is a good enough friend to pass them back in my hour of need. Unfortunately anything with the slightest hint of aniseed is out, as oh really doesn't like it. I'm wondering about Bois Farine - Jour de Fete is one of my staples, so I don't really want to taint that one with sorrow, but I think bois farine is another sample I will dig out.

I love the idea of the scent of baby smells, but think that could be a bit close to the bone for me right now.

Sorry not to respond to everyone right now, but I am truly grateful and send tearful hugs back to you all.

Purplebird, I know what you mean. I had a really bad cold just before I found out I was pregnant, and of course I am wondering if the Lemsips were to blame, or the very occcasional hot whisky. I think the reality probably is that it was nothing to do with anything that I did or didn't do, but part of me still keeps dredging for a reason. I am so very reassured by all of you who have had the strength to carry on and will keep that in my heart. Thank you. Women must be so amazingly strong to go through this multiple times.

Restlesssoul, I know this is daft, but I don't want the fact of being scent-free to be associated with this memory either, if that makes sense? I feel slightly lost without a scent, less grounded, and this is a time when I need to feel grounded.

My boss is being very sympathetic and does not want me to go back to work yet. Possibly because I burst into tears on the phone. The physical symptoms are starting to ease off a bit so I may try a small shopping trip in the next couple of days, I haven't really been out since Thursday apart from a very numb trip to the supermarket on Saturday morning. In the meantime, I am wearing Bois Farine today, and finding it very comforting. I'm very much liking the idea of a simple rose - I sampled Bvlgari Rose Essentielle at the airport last year and remember it being delectable, although it did get swamped by the other scents I was trying.

I remember recieving the citrus recommendation when my Grandma died, and wound up with Eau de Merveilles, which was perfect, but I could no longer bring myself to wear it after the funeral and gave it away. I guess this time I won't get the closure of a funeral, hopefully there will always be a little part of my child's essence still in me.

We went into Bath today and had a very gentle morning of walking and shopping. I've bought Bvlgari Voile de Jasmine which is perfect, and must be the lightest tenderest fragrance I've ever encountered. I really liked the Rose Essentielle too, but it had a slight sharpness on me. The drydown is gorgeous though.

Feeling a bit better today. Thank you all so much for your support and recommendations, I will be saving this thread to re-read.

I'm sorry for your sad times too. Thank you for the wise words, very nicely put.

Thank you to everyonefor taking the time and thought to post here. I have never smelled Jicky but will seek it out now. I'm also now craving a ginger bath melt - can't remember if it is Origins or Molton Brown, but thank you Kotori.

I'm feeling much better now during the day, still getting nightmares but I think they will fade with time. The Voile de Jasmin is perfect, and Bois Farine arrived today so I will try a small spray of that. Thank you again for sharing your experiences and your thoughts - I really do appreciate them all.
