| - If you've stayed at the Cosmopolitan Hotel & Casino for a few days, you've probably discovered the intoxicating fragrance of the lavender and peppermint shampoo and shower gels they place in your room.
While I typically do not notice these things -- soap and shampoo is just soap and shampoo -- these unique scents perked me up. Not surprising, since peppermint has been said to augment alertness, while lavender has been used as a sleep aid and a muscle relaxant. Perfect. Balance.
While you can hide the shampoo and shower gels bottles in your room in hopes housekeeping sets you up with a fresh stash the next day, you can also stop by Vitals, located a few steps away from the hotel's check-in desk and across from the Vesper bar.
Vitals sells the whole line of C.O. Bigelow beauty products, so you can buy larger versions of the same gels and shampoos that are in your hotel room, so you can continue to smell like your days at the Cosmopolitan long after you leave Vegas. They also sell assorted drinks (soft drinks, beer, and the harder stuff), snacks, and sundries, and are open 24/7.
