The aroma of sweet-scented herbs and spices could be captivated in herb sachets. Little bags enveloping dry herbs used not just to perfume closets and drawers but as well as moth deterrents. The addition of a couple dried out stems of southernwood or wormwood is especially good as a moth repellent in addition to its aromatic fragrance.

Herb sachets could be made of small squares of silk, impressed cotton cloth fixed in to little pillows or they could be pulled together across the top and fastened with a ribbon. These methods imply that they could be filled again some time later on. Fill up either with a mixture of herbs of equal amounts or just with a individual herb such as lavender or lemon verbena or with a few of the following mixtures.

Herbal sachet mixture 1
Blend same quantities of rosemary, tansy, and southernwood or wormwood plus 15grams of crushed cloves. This is both sweet-smelling and moth repellent.

Herbal sachet mixture 2
Mix together same quantities of mint, tansy, cotton lavender and wormwood and add some broke up cinnamon sticks. Blend well and add up a little dried out orange or lemon peel. This is fresh-scented and also works as a moth repellent.

Herbal sachet mixture 3
Use same quantities of balm and southernwood, or wormwood and add up twice the same amount as the previous herbs of rose petals and again add twice as much as all the previous herbs of lavender. Finally add up some crashed coriander seeds, cloves or cinnamon.
