Tata Harper Aromatic Bedtime Treatment, $60
As if you need another reason to surround yourself with sweet-smelling products before bed, here it is. One study recently found that being around positive smells while you sleep could influence whether you have a pleasurable dream or a nightmare. Pleasant odors evoked positive dreams, while the opposite was true for unpalatable scents. So, in addition to acting as a natural sedative, the scent of essential oils in this formula may also induce positive dreams. Talk about a win-win.
