The metamorphosis of a house into a home needs the cocoon of artistic vision, comfort and a pinch of love. After a full day jam-packed with emotional rollercoasters, we lay our essence bare in the comfort of our homes, wouldn’t you agree? The walls come down and a sigh of relief is released. 

When it comes to engaging our senses, there’s nothing like olfactory satisfaction that can help us create a sense of belonging.

We like to think of our home as having a persona of their own, where every space flows into each other in harmony. Despite their synergy, every part of our home needs to have its own self-sufficient identity. Reserving certain smells for every room can assist it in creating a mood for the space. You wouldn’t want to initiate a burst of energy while trying to get some shut-eye, would you?

Here’s What We Recommend:

Entrance 

You can call your entrance the first impression of your home. It sets the pace for the rest of the home. We love the Orange Essential Oil for this! With its piquant zip, it alerts and uplifts.

Living Room 

The epicenter of energy in our homes are our living rooms! For a relaxing feel, Cedarwood Oil is essentially the way to go. However, Ylang Ylang, with its unique fragrance, instantly makes a bold impression.

Kitchen 

The space where happiness is brewed, cooked and sautéed. The perfect scents for this room are the zesty notes of Lemongrass and Bergamot. The detoxifying undertones of these oils leave this place feeling clean and refreshed.

Bathroom

They say more dreams are dreamt in a bathroom than during a deep slumber. Gift yourself a restful bathroom experience by incorporating some Hinoki Essential Oil in your diffuser for a relaxing take. 

Bedroom

Separating your space of relaxation and repose from the potent energy from outside is essential to make sure you doze off right. That’s why we love the Vetiver Essential Oil. Known for its subtle aroma, it’s a great fit for a contemporary bedroom.

The smell of grass drenched in rainwater transports you to your childhood, the lingering smell of jasmine reminds you of the oil amma was so very fond of and the smell of vada pav has been assigned to the wide city of Mumbai. The sense of smell holds the key to so many pockets of nostalgia, each carefully wrapped in the wafting scent of the item you most associate it with. The stimulation of our olfactory senses can make or break our day, wouldn’t you agree?

We all agree that the disruptive transition from feeling productive and relaxed to cluttered and erratic poses a problem in many hectic lifestyles. This leads to neglecting the task at hand whether it be as mundane as a quick workout session or even as relaxing as getting some shut-eye.
