To bring comfort to internal spaces, it is necessary to maximize the senses, be it touch, visual or olfactory appeal. After all, comfort is not just associated with furniture and lighting –
aromas also count a lot in this equation . This is what specialist
Scheila Gonçalves Froehner , one of the partners in charge of
Mels Brushes , who is present at
CASACOR Santa Catarina 2021 , defends. She shares
five tips to help when choosing a fragrance for your home, check them out!
1. The fragrance must respect the resident’s style
Just like the colors chosen to decorate, it can be said that
the fragrance also awakens different sensations depending on its notes and intensities . For example, residents who opt for lighter colors tend to like fresher, lighter scents, such as
Dolce Vita and
Rosemary Supreme . On the other hand, people who opt for a darker palette tend to choose fuller-bodied fragrances, with
notes of spices, wood, leather such as Black Leather and Monet . For environments with a romantic and Provençal style, a great choice are
floral scents, which tend to please easily . Suggestions are
Tulip or
Cedar and
Magnolia .

O espaço foi pensado para despertar e instigar sensações, sejam visuais ou olfativas. A estrutura metálica aparente vai de encontro aos acabamentos sofisticados e as molduras de gesso e as pedras brutas naturais completam o mix de estilos. (Lio Simas/CASACOR)
2. Choose the most appropriate way to perfume
To perfume a room properly, it is necessary to take into account information such as
room size, ventilation and air flow . In these cases,
stick diffusers are preferred by most people due to the practicality of effortless continuous perfuming: just turn the sticks a few times a day.
Electric diffusers or
humidifiers are recommended for environments measuring around 30 m2. The
Home spray causes
intense aromatization for a short time and requires a little more effort to keep the environment fragrant, being perfect for moments when a specific perfume is desired.
Water for fabrics , as the name suggests, provides scent to fabrics. Widely used in bedding, pillows, curtains, carpets, towels. This modality is normally used in conjunction with a stick diffuser or home spray, when the intention is
to leave the fragrance clearly present in the environment .
For rooms and environments to relax, it is recommended to use
fragrances that bring a feeling of comfort and calm , such as
Lavender and
Bamboo . Kitchens and gourmet areas typically use
more citrus fragrances , as this style tends to “camouflage” the smell of food, such as
White Tea . Living rooms are usually the environment that attracts the most attention, as it is the place where friends and family are usually received. Therefore, the recommendation is for
versatile fragrances, which are easy to please , avoiding smells with a specific taste. Some fruits tend to please easily, such as
Cherry and
Hazelnut or
Fig and
Bergamot , woody florals also tend to be successful in this type of environment, such as
Cedar and
Magnolia . In bathrooms and washrooms, it is recommended to always have a
super-smelling liquid soap with the same fragrance as the stick diffuser on the counter. Suggestion of liquid soap and
Rosemary Supreme aroma diffuser.
4. Pay attention to the weather or season
As Brazil is quite large, you can clearly see the differences in fragrances chosen by cities in hot regions compared to those in the south or mountains.
Hot cities tend to consume fragrances that bring freshness and lightness, such as
Capim Limão citrus fruits. While residents of
colder cities look for fuller-bodied, spicy, woody fragrances, which
make the environment “warmer” like Whiskey .
5. Olfactory accommodation
Who has never been fooled by olfactory accommodation? Many times we think that
our house no longer smells so good , even when using the usual air freshener. This happens not only with home fragrances, but also with perfumes for personal use, as the sense of smell becomes “accustomed” to the aroma. Therefore,
do not make the mistake of spraying more and more home spray , as the effect can be unbearable for someone who is not used to it. Believe me, it still smells as good as before.
