We make efforts to decorate our entryway with visually appealing elements but forget an important component that turns your home into an ambiance of tranquility. A warm and inviting aroma at the entrance of your place welcomes the guests like a cozy hug.
Aromatherapy and plant-derived essential oils have been used by ancient cultures for centuries to enhance physical and emotional health. Aromas evoke nostalgia as we often associate fragrances with feelings. Nature Flavor’s expert chemists suggest mixing two to three essential oils to create a melody of unique fragrances that can become synonyms for your home.
Here are our favorite fragrances, which we recommended to Redfin Weekly Home Reset, in their Home Reset Blog to keep your entryways smelling fresh and your house feeling like a comfortable, homely embrace.
Cedar, Citrus, and Eucalyptus: Perfect for Entryways
Bring great outdoors in with earthy fragrances that make your home smell like an enchanting forest. Mix warm fragrances like Cederleaf and Eucalyptus with citrusy notes such as orange, lemon, or grapefruit. Now, add floral notes like Jasmin, Rose, and Geranium essential oils for a perfect harmony of nature.
Lavender, Frankincense, Sage, Chamomile: Bed and Bath Favorite
Known for their soothing effect, lavender and chamomile are favorites for relieving stress, calming nerves, and uplifting mood. Use Nature’s Flavors Lavender Essential Oil and Chamomile Essential Oil in bedrooms and bathrooms with an aromatherapy diffuser or scented candles. Pure goodness of Frankincense and Sage essential oils could be diluted with other carrier oils to add to your bath salts, lotions, and other cosmetics for supple skin and a relaxed ambiance.
Vanilla, Cinnamon, and Coffee: Smells Like Home
Ever wonder why the scent of fresh baked goods and brewed coffee draws us in? Vanilla, coffee, and familiar warm spice aromas often take us to our happy place—a trip down memory lane, enjoying with a group of friends, family, or loved ones. Vanilla remains one of the most popular essential oils for aromatherapy to reduce stress and anxiety. Floral notes of Vanilla mixed with citrus like orange, warm coffee, and cinnamon make the perfect housewarming fragrance blend to invite people into your cozy space.
Don’t forget to switch your fragrances with the season to align your indoors with the changing weather outdoors. Go from fresh floral in spring to minty and citrus essential oils for summer and warm spices for colder months to keep your home smelling like the season.
