Room-by-Room Guide to Using Air Fresheners for Optimal Ambience

Air fresheners don’t just mask smells — they can ultimately transform the mood and ambience of every room, too. Knowing where and how to use makes your place to smell inviting and not assault the senses. Various spaces have varying needs, from high-traffic spots like the kitchen to relaxing areas like the bedroom.

For the kitchen, select crisp, fresh, clean scents such as citrus for a barrier against cooking odors. Bathrooms can use some understated floral or oceanic scents that will freshen the area without being overwhelming. To help relax, unwind, and feel cozy in living rooms and bedrooms, choose warm and cozy scents, such as vanilla, lavender, or sandalwood.

Placement and type also matter. Depending on the size of the room, and the ventilation, spray bottles, gel containers, plug-ins or long-lasting diffusers, each have their benefits. With careful selection of scents and placement, you can ensure the scent is always just right from room to room in your home, and you can freshen air naturally and effectively.
