Lotion spilled in cabinet room (11)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

embrocation

'lotion' is the definition.
(I know that embrocation is a type of lotion)

'spilled in cabinet room' is the wordplay.
'spilled in' is an anagram indicator (letters spilled around).
'cabinet'+'room'='cabinetroom'
'cabinetroom' anagrammed gives 'EMBROCATION'.

(Other definitions for embrocation that I've seen before include "Liniment - cabinet room (anag)" , "A means maybe for soothing" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
