The power of smell in your everyday life
Smell is perhaps the most neglected sense.
And yet, it deeply affects your mood, memories, and emotions.
Fragrances are not just a pleasant detail. They are tools of well-being.
Think about this:
Have you ever smelled something that took you back to a childhood summer?
Or that calmed you down in a stressful moment?
How scents affect the brain
The psychology of fragrances is not fantasy. It is based on real neurological reactions.
-
The olfactory cortex is located next to the limbic system of the brain.
-
The limbic system controls emotions and memory.
-
This is why a smell can trigger memories more intensely than an image or a sound.
Which fragrances do what?
Each scent has a different effect.
See some examples:
-
Lavender : Calms, reduces stress and helps with quality sleep.
-
Orange & Bergamot : Bring light and positive energy. Ideal for the morning or the office.
-
Vanilla : Sweet and familiar. Awakens tenderness, nostalgia and relaxation.
-
Jasmine : Boosts mood and acts as a natural antidepressant.
-
Mint & Eucalyptus : They clear the mind and give a feeling of freshness.

How to incorporate fragrances into your daily life
You don't have to go to a spa to feel the benefits.
Some simple ideas:
-
Light a lavender snap bar when you're getting ready for bed.
-
Put a snap bar with orange and cinnamon in the living room in the afternoon.
-
Burn a jasmine candle when you want to fill the space with positive energy.
