Ground Floor
Entrance / Hallway (first impression = fresh + welcoming)
• Lemongrass Ginger → bright, clean, energising
• Orange → simple citrus, universally appealing
• Black Pomegranate → slightly richer “hotel lobby” vibe
Why: Citrus cuts through outdoor smells and creates an immediate “clean home” feel.
Living Room (comfort + depth)
• Cosy → explicitly designed for warm ambience
• Woody Vanilla → soft, crowd-pleasing warmth
• Sandalwood Myrrh → deeper, more luxurious base notes
• Oud → bold statement scent (best in larger lounges)
Why: Living rooms can handle heavier, lingering scents that feel relaxing in the evening.
Kitchen / Dining Area (light + fresh, not clashing with food)
• Coconut Lime → fresh, slightly tropical but still clean
• Lemongrass Ginger (secondary placement)
• Orange
Why: Avoid anything too sweet or smoky here—these keep things fresh without fighting food smells.
Downstairs WC / Cloakroom (strong + instant impact)
• Black Pomegranate
• Patchouli Rose
Why: Small spaces benefit from punchier scents that refresh quickly.
Bedrooms
Master Bedroom (calm + luxurious)
• Soft Sheets → clean linen, musk, soft citrus
• Lavender → classic sleep scent
• Sandalwood Myrrh (if you want a hotel vibe)
Why: Prioritise calming, low-intensity scents for sleep.
Bedroom 2 / Guest room
• Simply Rose → safe, elegant floral
• Bouquet → classic “fresh flowers” feel
Why: Universally pleasant, not polarising.
Bedroom 3 (Child / Teen / Flexible)
• Coconut Lime → light and cheerful
• Orange → clean and simple
Why: Keep it fresh and non-heavy.
Bedroom 4 / Office / Spare Room
• MyScent Vol.1 → neutral signature scent
• Woody Vanilla → if used as a snug/office
Why: Flexible scents that won’t distract.
Bathrooms
Main Bathroom
• Lavender → spa-like
• Soft Sheets → clean laundry vibe
• Lemongrass Ginger → Fresh
Ensuite
• Lemongrass Ginger
• Orange
Bathrooms benefit from clean, airy scents that reinforce hygiene.
Landing / Staircase (often overlooked)
• MyScent Vol.1 → acts as a “bridge scent”
• Bouquet
Why: This connects upstairs rooms—keep it neutral.
Pro Tip (what most people get wrong)
Don’t repeat the same scent everywhere. A good home scent layout:
• 1 signature scent per floor
• 1 contrast scent in social spaces
• calming scents in bedrooms
That layering makes your home feel intentional, not like a shop.
