Have you ever used a pillow mist spray? Here’s a review of one of my favourites, Tropic So Sleepy. There’s nothing worse than feeling tired before bed and then finding yourself wide awake for the next hour, trying to sleep.

We’ve all been there, more so as adults than as children. They seem to have a knack and can drop off when their head hits the pillow. If only!

Being sleep-deprived can significantly impact our day-to-day activities, especially if we’ve had several nights of desperately trying to doze off with little success.

This article is part of a fragrance blog I built myself — I’ll explain how at the end if you’re curious.

It is unpleasant to wake up the following day feeling like you have been awake for most of the night. Many of us are already in the habit of watching TV until late, working, and looking at our screens before bed, and these combinations don’t assist us in any way.

The Perfect Solution In a Bottle of Pillow Mist Spray

I received a bottle of Tropic So Sleepy as a birthday gift last year. I had never used one before, but I was willing to give it a try to see if it worked. The ingredients alone were enough to help me sleep. The notes of lavender, chamomile, and frankincense essential oils in a 30ml bottle sounded heavenly and will help enormously with a good night’s sleep.

I have always been wary of spraying products directly onto my pillow. I am not keen on the idea that my skin could come into contact with the product as it soaks in while I move into different positions to get comfortable. The great thing about using a pillow mist spray is that, although it is a pillow mist, you don’t have to spray it on your pillow.

Like other topical products that help with sleep and the respiratory system, I like to apply the product to a tissue and keep the tissue near my pillow so I can still benefit from its properties.

By doing this, I know that the product will not come into contact with my skin and potentially cause a reaction. The first whiff of the Tropic So Sleepy product is lavender. Lavender is a beautiful flower, not just for its vibrant colour but also for its many healing properties.

There is almost an instant sense of calm as soon as the fragrance hits your nose, giving you confidence that it will help you get a better night’s sleep.

Having not used it for several weeks, simply because I forgot that I had it in my bedside drawer and having had a few disturbed nights, I was keen to revisit this little product once again.

I’ve been used to waking up regularly through the night for several years, and that’s part and parcel of how my sleep pattern has settled, but it has never bothered me that much.

Clock Watching

It bothered me that I was having trouble falling asleep in the first place. I looked at the clock every five minutes to see if the time had moved on as much as it felt like it had, or if I had even fallen asleep and woken up again a short time later.

Sleep felt overrated when we were younger. Why do we need to go to bed so early? What was the importance of sleep?

“I don’t want to go to bed!”

As we grow older, we learn and realise that sleep is essential to our everyday lives. Lack of a good night’s rest can have a detrimental effect on our mental and physical health and well-being.

We spent so many years in our youth fighting sleep and not wanting to go to bed, and now, as adults, we are desperately going the other way in trying to get as much shut-eye as possible. The 30ml bottle requires 2 to 3 pumps, 30 cm away from your pillow, to aid a peaceful night’s sleep. It is 100% naturally derived and can be purchased on eBay.

Take a look at my article on pillow mist spray, where I show a selection of sleep sprays, their benefits, and the benefits of lavender, their main ingredient.

The Ingredients in a Bottle of Tropic So Sleepy Pillow Mist Spray

Tropic So Sleepy contains chamomile, so let’s look at the benefits of this ingredient.

Chamomile is a beautiful, mild tranquilliser containing apigenin, one of the bioflavonoids found in many plants. It helps reduce anxiety and causes sedation, both of which are needed for a restful night’s sleep. Chamomile tea also has enormous benefits. To have a peaceful night, our body needs to be in a relaxed state.

So, by using pillow sprays containing lavender and chamomile, we are well on our way to preparing our bodies for sleep. Most of us will aim for at least 6-8 hours, if possible.

Another ingredient in this little bottle of magic is frankincense. With properties similar to those of chamomile, frankincense helps overcome stress, offers aromatherapeutic benefits, and promotes relaxation. Sometimes, a winter cold can be an added obstacle that makes it hard to fall asleep.

Many of us have attempted to sleep, but our noses are running, or our sinuses are blocked.

Why does this always happen at night ?!

Relaxing the body and mind, along with the addition of aromatherapy oils such as eucalyptus, can help relieve such symptoms. So many people prefer topical solutions to help with everyday situations rather than taking medicines or supplements. The pillow mist spray is a beautiful creation and highly recommended.

I’m sure those with children have used Olbas oil in the past to help children with stuffy noses and coughs sleep, yet we forget to do similar things when we are adults and are struggling to sleep, too.

They also have a selection of gift sets instead of buying them individually. Some also contain hand cream and temple sticks. It’s an excellent gift for someone who struggles to get a restful night’s sleep.

Size of bottle: 30ml

My rating is 9.5 out of 10.
Avoid spraying onto delicate fabrics and furniture. Do not apply directly to your skin. If contact occurs, avoid getting water in the eyes. Alcohol-free. Vegan and cruelty-free. Perfect!

This product has excellent online reviews, and it does help, especially when used regularly. It is a gorgeous combination of fresh and calming aromas that help with the nighttime battle of drifting off to sleep naturally.

If winding down at bedtime is something you struggle with, I’ve also shared one of my favourite sleep essentials on my ShopMy account — a relaxing pillow mist spray designed to help create a calm, soothing bedtime atmosphere. A few sprays on your pillow before bed can help make your evening routine more peaceful and comforting, especially after a busy or stressful day. I love discovering products that help make everyday life feel a little more relaxing, and this is one of those simple bedtime treats that many people enjoy adding to their nightly routine.

Do you struggle to get off to sleep?

How This Blog Was Created

Fragrances With Love started as a personal hobby — sharing my love of perfume, affordable finds, and fragrance trends. I didn’t start with a background in websites, marketing, or blogging.

This site was built by writing about something I genuinely enjoy. I use one platform to host my website, write my blog posts, and learn how to monetise content step by step, all in one place.

If you enjoy writing and have ever thought about starting a blog around something you love, you can see the platform I used to create this site below.
