Scented candles help to further accentuate an ambiance by engaging one’s olfactory senses and triggering memories. For example, summery scents like mandarin are reminiscent of sunshine, blue skies, and sprightly spirits.
Let essential oils prepare your mind for bed by burning them in a burner or diffusing the scent through the room via a nebulizer or mist diffuser. Beyond calming a harried mind, woody-spicy essential oils such as Frankincense inspire introspection and well-being, making it a great scent to meditate or just unwind to at the end of the day.
The presence of a lit candle lends any room a soft, warm glow of a sophistication that can really set the tone for the evening. A small, flickering flame reminiscent of cozy nights can create a calming, sedative effect, while its ornamental value is enhanced by its shape and the design of its holder. Chunky pillar candles set the stage for a home spa while intricate glass jar candles can add character and flair to the interior design of a room.
