Lavender is a classic choice for the bedroom as it is renowned for its calming and snooze-inducing properties. Spritz your linens with a sleep mist to help you unwind or pop a reed diffuser on the windowsill for a room filled with cocooning calm.

Citrus

Zesty aromas are great for the kitchen to create an uplifting zing. They’re also effective at masking kitchen smells – perfect for open-plan living when you don’t want strong scents to linger.

Eucalyptus

Eucalyptus will instantly transform any bathroom space into a spa-like oasis. The crisp, clean scent brings clarity and rejuvenating properties and a tub-side candle is great for a relaxing bath. Or why not try a misting diffuser to fill a small space effectively?

Vanilla

Vanilla can often be a sickly, artificial scent but when blended well it adds warmth and comfort to a cosy living room. Look for diffusers or candles with vanilla or tonka top notes and a darker amber or sandalwood base to balance the sweetness for the perfect hygge scent.
