Warm Up, Cool Down,

After the last post I did a little research about different scents. As it turns out scent not only evokes memories, it can also make you feel warmer, or cooler. Here is a quick guide to help you find the fragrances that can help you feel warm and cozy, or fresh and cool. I will also write about another fun way to use scent.
Seasonal Scents are the fastest way to welcome a new season into your home. Right now some great choices are Apple, Apple Cinnamon, Apple Pie, Cinnamon buns, Cranberry, Pumpkin Delight(which may be the most welcoming scent ever), Red Hot, Gingerbread, Orange Cinnamon or Spiced Cider. I don't know if I am feeling warmer right now, but I do know that my mouth is watering. Which brings me to another point scents can also make you hungry. If you are watching what you eat you might prefer, Winter Wood or Heavenly Spruce. All of these scents make the house seem warm and inviting.
For Spring and Summer think light fresh scents like Grape Fruit Passion, Lemon Flower, Orange Blossom, Zest of Verbena, Fresh Eucalyptus, Fresh Linen, Lilac Blossom, Summer Rain or Paradise Punch. All of these scents make your home feel refreshed, light, and breezy.
Travel isn't always easy,or even a possibility, but since scent is closely tied to memory you can use it to stay on vacation permanently(if only in you mind). With fragrances like Atlantic Tide, Caribbean Tonic, New Orleans, Borneo Teak Wood, and Sea Mist a trip around the world is just a breath away.
All of the fragrances mentioned are available for purchase at The Galleries.
