Scent sets the scene. Close your eyes for a moment. Seriously, do it. Breathe in and out normally and close your eyes. What aromas are surrounding you at the moment? Are they pungent? Barely there? Right in front of you, because you’re eating lunch while reading this blog? Your eyes are probably open by now.

What feelings do those smells invoke in you? Do they trigger any emotions at all? Are they distracting or helpful? Are you unsure? We can help you figure out the best scents for your mood or to create the right vibe. 

Try These Aromas For:

Focus and Productivity

Whether you’re working hard on the job or trying to get tasks done around the house, the right scent goes a long way in helping you retain focus and have a productive day.

• Cinnamon is an incredibly stimulating, pungent smell that helps fight fatigue and helps concentration and focus.
• Fight the Monday blues with Rosemary. A stimulant that can help with memory retention and battle exhaustion.
• Lemon and other citrus scents are energizing and helpful with concentration.
• Need help with problem solving and brainstorming? Peppermint is a sharp energizer that isn’t just for Christmas candies and toothpaste! It can help you concentrate. 

Relaxation, Calm and Sleep

Serenity is an important feeling that people are always searching for. After a long day, you just want to kick back and chill, whether with a glass of wine in the bathtub or with a good book on the couch.

• Lavender is one of the most common scents for relaxation, because it fundamentally works. It soothes the nerves and smoothes out the wrinkles of stress. It’s also the best scent for catching zzz’s. 
• Another classic scent is Jasmine, a comforting antidepressant that can leave you feeling rejuvenated and refreshed. 
• The smell of Pine is familiar to those on the East Coast. This scent has been associated with alleviating stress. Imagine a long walk through the pine trees, breathing in the fresh air. Soothing, right?
• Chamomile isn’t just a tea for sipping, it’s a calming fragrance that can help improve sleeping patterns and soothe a fretful mind.

Romance and Joy

Some scents have an effect on our moods and we want to share them with other people! Perfect for a romantic date night in or a couple’s spa day, try these scents. 

• A fragrance you may not be as familiar with is Ylang-ylang. It’s a tropical scent that can increase romantic feelings and appetite, while also being relaxing. 
• Vanilla may sound basic, but it really isn’t. It can be the foundation for so many great scent combinations, while being joy-inducing on its own.
• Another scent that is said to be arousing is Sandalwood, which helps you stay alert and focused.
