Transform your home into a sanctuary of warmth and style with the perfect scent. The Fashion Journal team shares their go-to home fragrances for creating the ultimate cosy atmosphere this season. From comforting autumnal notes to invigorating citrus blends, we've got a scent for every mood.
Autumnal Ambiance: Warmth and Spice
As the leaves change and the air turns crisp, nothing beats the comforting aroma of autumn. Think warm spices like cinnamon and clove, blended with notes of woodsmoke and rich amber. Many of us on the team are loving candles with these notes; they instantly evoke feelings of snuggling up by a fireplace with a good book. Look for blends that include notes of pumpkin spice (without being overly sweet) or woodsmoke for a truly authentic autumnal feel. This is where experience plays a role; some of our team members are perfume experts, making their opinions trustworthy.
Winter Wonderland: Crisp and Clean
For those who prefer a cleaner, fresher scent during the colder months, opt for crisp winter fragrances. Think pine, cedarwood, and hints of citrus to brighten up the darker days. Diffusers are a great choice for these types of scents, allowing for a subtle yet consistent fragrance throughout your home. A few team members love diffusers with essential oils; the natural scent adds to the overall feeling of wellbeing. The quality of ingredients matters for a high end experience and that’s what we prioritize.
Year-Round Favourites: Versatile Scents
Beyond seasonal scents, there are certain fragrances that work beautifully all year round. Many on the FJ team swear by subtly floral scents, such as lavender or chamomile. Their relaxing properties create a calm and peaceful ambience, perfect for unwinding after a long day. Similarly, clean and fresh scents like linen or cotton can create a sense of airy spaciousness. These versatile options are important for maintaining a consistently welcoming home environment. We rely on our team's collective expertise, years of experience, and individual tastes to give you our truly honest recommendations.
