June 23, 2022 by Julia Weaver
Everyone wants a home that smells good. There’s just something about a clean, fresh-smelling home that is warm, inviting, and luxurious – and it makes you never want to leave. Fragrances can also trigger happy memories, boost your mood, and affect your sense of calm. But, more and more people are concerned about the impact that chemical fragrances have on our health. Luckily, you can easily scent your home and skip the harsh chemicals.

Create a sense of joy and calmness
No other sense invokes as much emotion as our sense of smell. It immediately connects us with memories and experiences and can instantly create a sense of well-being. When used correctly, essential oils not only make our homes smell amazing but can also offer therapeutic benefits. During the summer, it is especially nice to use a diffuser with oils to smell refreshing and offer calming and uplifting properties. A favorite (and economical) blend for this time of year to use in a diffuser (which is safe to use around children and pets) is three drops of Lavender, five drops of Lemon, and four drops of Grapefruit. Adjust the number of drops depending on your diffuser and the room size. As a general rule of thumb, we recommend that you diffuse for approximately 15 to 20 minutes, turn the diffuser off for one hour and repeat the cycle as desired. Of course, always diffuse in a well-ventilated area. This simple recipe will make your home smell good without candles and create a beautifully scented home while providing an overall sense of joy and calmness. – Sharon Mayberry, Certified Clinical Aromatherapist at Rock Rose Apothecary
