How To Make Your Home Smell Good

February 26, 2018admin

A Guide To Help You Find The Right Scent

The scent of a home is just as important as the visual decor. Smells help to bring together the design elements in any room to provide an experience.

Our brains work very similar to processing emotion when it comes to smells. That explains why everything we smell we can usually recall a memory or a feeling. Rooms and scented places have two effects. They can bring up old memories from our past or create brand new memories.

Finding A Scent For Your Home

Finding the right scent for your home is essential. You want a scent that you would fall in love with, that suits your home. That is one of the first steps in making any home smell good. Furthermore, the best way to find the perfect scent for your home is by doing the following. 

The first thing you would want to do is smell a few fragrances. Try to focus on your feelings about this type of scent. Your nose is your best friend when looking to find a scent that would suit your home.

Consider how you want your house to feel, whether you want it to feel energising, relaxing, cosy or stimulating. This way, you can look at many varieties of scents to achieve this feeling. If you wish to have a comfortable home, perfumes such as cinnamon and vanilla are perfect. If you require something fresher, energising and brighter try using fresh linen, fruits, and cut grass.

How To Prepare Your Home For A New Scent

Now that you have found a scent that you love. You will want to get it into your home as soon as possible. However, you want to take a few steps beforehand to get a much better effect from your fragrance. That could be very important, especially if you have pets and young children.

Start by cleaning your home and airing it out. Get rid of any old clutter as the dirt can cause old bad smells. Furthermore, opening windows and doors will let in the fresh air.

Introducing Your Chosen Scent

Here are some helpful ways to help your home smell great.

Oil Burners and Candle Burners – You can find a wide range of scents in essential oils that can burn on a burner, which will give off a strong aroma.

Scented Candles – Scented candles are one of the most popular ways to scent your home. They provide a cosy atmosphere with a light source. You could also attempt at making your very own scented candles.

Boiling water – This is an old trick but very simple to do and also effective. Boil a small pot of water and keep it on low heat. Now you will want to add your favourite scented items such as vanilla, cinnamon sticks, coffee beans, orange peels or cloves.

Diffusers – Diffusers are becoming a popular choice as they come in a wide range of scents and styles. They are also perfect for changing the smell in smaller areas of the home, making them ideal in each room. These do not require a burning flame, so they are more pet and child safe.

Other Ways To Make Your Home Smell Amazing

There is a range of other things that can improve the smell of your home.

Fresh Bean Coffee – Fresh coffee throughout the day can provide your home with an inviting smell. Take it further by filling a cup with coffee beans, place a vanilla tea light inside the cup. Light up the tea light, you will get an infused smell of vanilla and coffee beans.

Cooking and baking – There is no better smell than freshly baked food such as bread, cookies and cakes. Bake up some cakes for an aroma that will make its way around the house.

Flowers – For the best fresh smell consider buying fresh flowers. Choose your favourite type of flowers and put them on display in your house. There is nothing like the smell of fresh flowers.
