Best Home Fragrance: Top 10 Best Scents For Every Room

We use home scents to create a sense of ambiance and atmosphere in our homes; nothing beats coming home from a long day at the office to an inviting space, right? The best home fragrance comes down to personal taste for the most part but, when choosing a room scent, it can help to think a little harder about the mood you want to create in that specific place. Is this a communal space or your own cosy nook? Is the interior set in lighter or darker tones? Do you personally prefer soothing room scents or something a bit livelier? All of these questions can come into play when choosing the best home scents for your individual rooms.

The kitchen is, of course, the place to whip up comforting homemade meals and delicious sweet treats. And the dining room is the place to sit down as a family and eat them! Since they’re such aromatically busy spaces, you’ll want to opt for a home scent that masks unpleasant odours without interfering with the mouth-watering smells from your home cooking. It’s a fine line to walk, which can make navigating which fragrance to pick a challenge. To strike the balance, why not go for a fresh and subtle fragrance like our Amber, Orchid & Lotus Blossom Candle? This sophisticated fragrance is a fusion of floral and oriental notes with indulgent orchid leading into a heart of tropical lotus blossom on a base of rich amberwood and musk. If you’re looking for a long-lasting home fragrance rather than a relaxant as you bake, you might want to try our Amber, Orchid & Lotus Blossom Diffuser instead. 

As fun as it always ends up, it can be hard hosting other people; the aim is, after all, to make your guests feel comfortable and familiar in a home that isn’t their own. We can do this through good entertainment, a lovely homecooked meal, and the way we present our space. Part of this comes down to our house fragrance choice, which helps to form a certain vibe in each room. For a communal space like the living room, have a think about if there’s a certain occasion or season coming up – we all know that fragrances like cinnamon and pumpkin spice are often linked with Christmas, for example. If not, something light and floral like our Jasmine, Lemongrass & Ginger Diffuser is bound to be a crowd-pleaser for everyday use. This diffuser is the perfect way to fragrance your home. The invigorating fragrance opens with oriental lemongrass and ginger, balanced with an element of citrus and spice alongside the floral scent of jasmine and ruffled rose petals. It ticks all the boxes!   

The bedroom should be a relaxing space that invigorates your senses but, when all’s said and done, a scent that relaxes you might not relax your partner and vice versa. The room scents you find comforting come down to personal opinion. As a rule of thumb if you’re having a hard time choosing, the best room fragrance should avoid a synthetic, overwhelming feeling and should be aromatically comforting. It’s not usually a great idea to choose something too sweet or overpowering. Our Fig, Vanilla & Cacao Diffuser is the perfect way to fragrance your room. This opulent fragrance opens with crisp, fresh green fig which is enhanced by a sprinkling of bitter cacao and a luscious vanilla base creating balance and depth. Or, for a fragrance that is guaranteed to burn for 60 hours, why not give our Fig, Vanilla & Cacao Candle a try as an alternative?  Set in a gold lined glass, this candle creates a mesmerising hue and relaxing glow - ideal for winding down in the evening.

How about the bathroom? Tropical notes can really work to help you escape the everyday, but why not strive to recreate the spa experience with an indulgent scent? Our Patchouli, Cedar & Thyme Candle is a deep and rich fragrance with a sumptuous woody aroma infused with floral and citrus tones and a hint of thyme, great for soaking in style. You could always opt for our Patchouli, Cedar & Thyme Diffuser to keep your bathroom fresh and aromatic all day long.

It’s still important to keep comfortable even if you’re in work mode. Self-care is vital! Give our White Tea, Bergamot & Mint Diffuser a shot if you’re working from home. This diffuser is the ideal way to fragrance your room. The room scent is an infusion of fresh mint leaves, citrus overtones and aromatic white and black teas balanced by soft woods and white musk. These citrus overtones are great for maintaining that productive mindset and encouraging you to stay focused.

The hallway is often neglected and forgotten about and we can’t imagine why – it’s the first space someone comes across when they enter your home! A pleasant home fragrance can do wonders for your own mood, and can make for a welcoming experiencing for your guests. Choose a long-lasting home fragrance that’ll linger throughout the day, like our Sandalwood, Cardamom & Oud Diffuser. This indulgent fragrance opens with fresh notes of cardamom and sparkling lemon, balanced with a heart of orange blossom on a base of deep and rich sandalwood and oud. You’ll be sure to leave a lasting impression on anyone who comes in!
