How scents affect our mood
Even with small children you can see how scents work: immediately. They make faces and hold their noses when it doesn't smell great. And they are happy about a nice scent, e.g. of flowers, a tangy orange or a freshly baked vanilla crescent.
Scents have a direct effect on our mood and trigger strong emotions because they are sent through the nose directly to the brain or nervous system, where they stimulate certain hormones. Without being able to influence it, scents and smells determine one's own mood and thus one's well-being. Good to know, because in this way we can positively shape well-being through the considered use of scents and aromas.
The popular lavender is said to have a calming and anxiolytic effect, citric scents such as tangerine or orange blossom oil give fresh, positive energy, jasmine improves the mood and oriental fragrances have a warm and stimulating effect.
However, the actual sensation is different for everyone and certainly has something to do with the positive memory of happy moments, such as the wonderfully pleasant scent from Mamas* Kitchen* or one Holidays in southern countries*. In addition to sun, beach and sea, it simply smells of freshness and freedom, one associates corresponding citric or floral scents with this positively charged world of experience.
In the case of scented candles, scents and perfumes are added to the wax - ideally soy wax. An important aspect for a room fragrance is the quality of the fragrance. To create a room ambience, it is worth using high-quality products.
With room fragrances, the fragrance is released into the air using rattan sticks. As with candles, experiment with what intensity you want for what situation or mood. High-quality and decorative candles smell even when they are not lit. And you don't have to keep room fragrances open all the time.
A fantastic room ambience can often be found in Morocco*.

Use scented candles and room fragrances to create a positive ambience - and thus mood and well-being.
