Small Spaces and Their Scents
Is there a specific corner where you have placed your bean bag and like to slouch and read? That corner has a specific smell, a unique vibe. So, why can’t your studio apartment, kitchen, or library have that unique smell?
As discussed earlier, fragrances can elevate your mood and increase your productivity. That’s why the fragrance of your small apartment matters to your brain and body. With 360 research, we have developed a list of fragrances you can use in each space. So, scroll down and read the specific section of your house for which you need an air freshener.
- Sitting Area or Parlour
In British homes, the sitting area is often called a parlour. This place is where the guests sit for chit-chat and serve tea, making it the most important part of the house. After all, you want to make a good impression in front of your guests. - Dining Area
You are sitting at the dinner table, and your mother puts a tadka in that lentil vegetable. Hmmm! Our stomachs also growl on the smell of that tasty tadka. Similarly, some fragrances can instantly make you feel hungry. So, try to choose any of the fragrances mentioned in your dining area. - Bedroom
A bedroom is where you rest your body and prepare yourself to handle the next day’s stress. So, try to choose some relaxing and light fragrances that will help you have a good night’s sleep. - Car
Your kids might open a packet of lies while sitting in the back of your car and then throw away the empty packet. You might get home and park the car in the parking lot. The next morning, you won’t expect your car to smell of tomatoes because your children ate a “Tomato” flavoured lays packet. However, this will happen. The aroma, be it bad or good, will get trapped in your car because it is a closed space. That’s why using a car freshener for a space as small as your car is important.
If you are unsure what fragrance will go with what space, we have prepared a table for you. Refer to the table mentioned below to decide which type of fragrance you want to buy:
| Space | Fragrance | Type of Air Freshener |
| Bed Room | Lavender and Citrus fragrances would work best because you need to slow down your thinking and rest your mind. | Reed diffusers work best in such small and closed spaces because they emit a very subtle and light fragrance. |
| Sitting Area/Drawing Rooms | Vanilla, Cinnamon, and Lavender work best for a living room. If your living room also has a dining area, then these fragrances would make your family members more hungry for a scrumptious meal. | Oil burners or tea light diffusers work best to elevate the aesthetic of your drawing room.
|
| Bathrooms or Washrooms | You can use the cooling relief of eucalyptus, lemon, or the crispy scent of lavender. | Air freshener sprays would work best in your bathroom. You can also substitute these with candles. However, if your bathroom lacks space, you should always go for a spray room freshener. |
| Temple | If you have a temple in your home and want to try something authentic, try BloomGreen’s Temple Essence. | Incense sticks and cones are the best options to consider for your temples. That’s because you can also use this ‘Agarbatti’ or ‘Incense Cones’ to do the aarti. |
There are various types of fragrances that you can choose from to make your home smell good. Secondly, there are several types of air fresheners that you can use depending on your needs and wants.
For your convenience, we are forming a table to help you understand the different types of air fresheners that you can use. Refer to the table below:
| Type | Use |
| Reed Diffuser | They are like sticks which absorb the essential oils and then slowly and subtly diffuse the fragrance in the air. The sticks need to be turned upside down every week or so. They are put inside a glass jar, which has essential oil in it and the sticks keep absorbing the essential oil from the bottom end. |
| Oil Burners/Tea Light Diffusers | The wax inside these candle wax is infused with essential oils, and as the candle burns, the fragrance is circulated inside the room. The one drawback of these air fresheners is that the tea light and the oil needs to be replaced often. |
| Candles | Candles are an eternal aesthetic piece, which you can place anywhere in the room. Depending on the size of your room, you can choose the best suited size of your room. |
| Sprays | These air fresheners work best for rooms with proper ventilation. You can press the trigger as many times and get rid of the bad odour in just milliseconds. The best part about these air fresheners is that you don’t have to wait hours for the fragrance to spread in the room. |
