"Ever wanted to bottle the green fresh aroma of a forest? UQ researcher Dr Nick Lavidis has done just that with a new "eau de grass" spray soon to be launched on the market. ".......

“The new Serenascent combines three of these chemicals to help reduce the harmful impact of stress on the nervous system.

“Prolonged stress can lead to a number of serious conditions like high blood pressure, heart problems, memory loss, anxiety, depression and the suppression of the body's ability to fight infections.”

Dr Lavidis said he first had the idea for Serenascent on a memorable trip to Yosemite National Park in America more than 20 years ago.

“Three days in the park felt like a three-month holiday,” he said. ......

Pumice Flat campground, I was walking from site 12 (where we had a bonfire) to site 3 (where I was parked) and in site 4, GRASS AROMA

I have no respect for people who need weed.

The article is about lawn grass. Your responses have nothing to do with the topic.
