NYT Strands today (game #300) – the answers
The answers to today’s Strands, game #300, are…
- LAVENDER
- PATCHOULI
- CEDARWOOD
- EUCALYPTUS
- SPANGRAM: AROMATHERAPY
- My rating: Easy
- My score: Perfect
There are around 90 essential oils, all with numerous benefits. Among the four we were looking for today, CEDARWOOD helps with focus, LAVENDER relieves stress, and EUCALYPTUS aids congestion. In other words if you’re stuck on Strands, try unblocking with some essential oils.
Meanwhile, PATCHOULI was popular in the hippie era for covering up the smell of smoke and alcohol – and, no doubt, going unwashed for a couple of days. It also repels mosquitos and is beneficial to dry skin.
Interestingly King Tutankhamun was buried in his golden royal tomb accompanied by 10 gallons of patchouli. He either had some nasty habits or very dry skin.
