In recent years, home fragrances have almost become an extension of our beauty regimes. Often matching much-loved perfumes or crafted from essential oils, home scents are now so much more than a simple room spray. Whether you keep a reed diffuser in your hallway filling your home with your favourite scent, light a scented candle when you take a relaxing bath, or mist aromatherapy oils into your room of choice with an atomiser, we’re filling our lives with fragrance in so many new ways.
Offering an ‘always on’ scent, reed diffusers are constantly doing their thing. If you’re looking for a strong, immediate fragrance then use all the reeds and turn them daily. This will throw more fragrance out. Alternatively, you can elongate the life of your reed diffuser by using fewer reeds and turning them less often for a softer scent with staying power. If you’re using scented candles, then most have a burn time of 45-55 hours and would require being lit for about thirty minutes before you really start to smell that scent. So open up your fave book in the meantime.
There isn’t a one-scent-fits-all answer when it comes to home fragrance. We’d suggest considering the room you intend to use it in and the effects certain scents can have on our senses. For instance, the kitchen is a great space for home fragrances based on herbs, fruits or spices as they are warm and comforting (as well as delicious). Whereas fresh, clean scents that remind us of forests, mountains or beaches are perfect for creating a bathroom sanctuary. In the bedroom you can turn up the romance a little with sensual florals and musky aromas, and choose Woody, Amber or Vanilla scents to create a cosy snug or sitting room.
