The Sense of Smell is one of the most powerful of our five senses.
Each area of your house might need a different scent! Make sure you are not sending the wrong scent message with your candles. Not sure what goes where? Here’s a couple simple suggestion in a room-by-room breakdown:
Kitchen: This room does not always need to be scented because actual food smells so good. But if you have not made a batch of cookies recently try a homey, food scent. Try our Rise and Shine candles for during the day, when a refreshing scent is welcome, and then maybe Baked Apple with a Twist later when you want a cozier feeling.
· Living room: Everyone gathers here, so make sure you choose warm scents and a crackling wood wick, to make you think of a crackling fireplace, helping you relax, and guests feel comfy.
· Bedroom: Your bedroom is a place for relaxation at the end of the day, and you can help by choosing smells like Lavender to help you fall asleep quicker.
· Bathroom: This is a personal wild card, so pick a scented candle that you love. Nearly any scent will help neutralize bathroom smells! I am in love with our “Long Summer’s Day”.
After smelling the same scent for more than around 15 minutes, your nose and olfactory system become less sensitive, making it seem like the scent from your candle is gone.
· A person can go ‘nose blind’
(or desensitized) in about 15 minutes.
And when you stop smelling your candle’s scent, you might want to
light more candles—but someone new walking into the room is going to be overwhelmed.
· For scents that stand out more, use a different smelling candle in different areas of your home, so your nose can be stimulated again when you walk from room to room.
