Ah yes, I use valerian nearly daily.

-officinalis- so as not to confooz the casual peroozer of the thread.

What for?

Eau de DirtySocks! ;-)

Aint that the truth.

Essence de pile of a year's worth of dirty socks while drying.

My wife, who'd never experienced the charm of valerian's earthy

Marvelous herb. Valerian...strong!!

I agree though our cat does not.

Interesting. Many cats enjoy as much as catnip, with similar effects.
I've known such cats and am now careful with my valerian.
