When I think Victoriana theme I think of floral scents ­ I¹m thinking about
calling mine Victorian lace (visions of corsets, lace and ribbon) and using
Lavender, Rose, and vanilla (I like vanilla).

I might even add some lavender buds (if I can find them).

Bill (a bit of a history buff) suggested sunlight soap as apparently it was
created at the end of the Victorian period.  He facetiously  suggested
arsenic and old lace ­ I think it¹s a famous movie or something (at this
stage I wasn¹t listening).
