Discover the best scents for blissful tranquility
Ever wondered why you just feel so much better when your house smells nice? Smell is a powerful sense – it keeps us safe from inedible food, alerts us to danger, and can both arouse and repel. Adding calming scents to your environment is one way to reduce stress and improve your mood.
There are many scents that help to create a calm and relaxed environment. When choosing products for our collections, we carefully consider the scents we include. Below is a list of the scents included in our home fragrance products, and their benefits…and because we’re lovely we’ve even included a link to products based on these scents!

Cirtus-based scents (orange, lime, bergamot) are said to invigorate and refresh the senses, promoting a sense of well-being and relaxation
