Spices-less Havdalah

Hi,

One who does not have spices for Havdalah should still recite Havdalah; the spices are not a requirement. We simply use the spices to ease the spiritual transition from Shabbat to the rest of the week.

(Code of Jewish Law Orach Chaim 297:1; Mishneh Berurah 297:2)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
