When summer’s in full swing, a switch-up in scent is sometimes all it takes to bring renewed energy to our wellbeing toolkits and make home – or away – feel like a proper haven. Not sure where to start? Keep reading for our top 5 tips on using scents to set the mood this summer.
1. Bring The Outside In...
No outside space? No problem! A good place to start is with fresh scents will bring that ‘apero on the terrace’ feeling inside and help with your most pressing summer wellbeing need.
Perhaps it's cultivating your dream scented garden inside with our Great Day 1 Wick Candle (hint: dreamy duo wild mint and mandarin smell like summer drifting through an open window). Its beautiful limited-edition design will be a great addition to your summer home decor – and it also comes in travel size if you want to take the good vibes on the road.
And for a fresh zing of energy? We’ll be adding a few drops of Squeeze The Day Essential Oil Blend into our Wellbeing Pods, to bring that scent of grapefruit, mandarin and eucalyptus straight to our space when we need a fresh boost in the heat.
2. Make It A Cool Welcome
Nothing beats a Reed Diffuser for gentle, ‘always on’ scenting that greets you as soon as you walk through the door. The one you put in the hallway should be the first thing you want to experience after a day in the heat (or rain!).
We recommend switching to a light, citrussy fragrance like Squeeze The Day to fill your space with waves of fresh, cool scent. Our blend of 100% natural grapefruit, mandarin and eucalyptus is the scent equivalent of a cold, fruity beverage, expertly blended to help give you a blast of that fresh feeling. Endless summer mood: activated.
3. Keep The Feel-Good Going
Summer scenting doesn’t have to stop at one room or even at home. We’ll be packing our favourite scents and taking them on the go in our Wellbeing Pod Minis.
Our summer-ready Great Day and Squeeze the Day essential oils are a welcome refresher for when the summer road trip is less than sunny. And they’re easy to take away, too – just stash them in one of our NEW Travel Bags that are made to go on the road.
4. Layer Your Scents
And finally… We’re all about layering and switching between scents to suit our mood. To do this, try rotating some of your wellbeing favourites in your Wellbeing Pod to compliment (or boost!) the scents you’ve chosen for your Reed Diffuser or Scented Candles.
Keep this in mind: if you’re tired, a zingy, refreshing scent should do the trick. Hot and bothered? Cooling eucalyptus has got your back. And if you just want to soak up that happy summer energy all season long, feel free to mix, match and even clash between scents for a vibrant burst of feel-good fragrance.
