Wedding logos and party themes are so last season. The newest trend in wedding planning? Scenting. Yes - soon-to-be newlyweds are now using scent to create a personalized experience for their guests - and each other. Scent has the power to transport us to an exact time or place in our lives and evokes memories, feelings, and emotions associated with that moment in a way that no photo album or video could ever do. Plus, unlike other keepsakes, scent is practical and can easily be incorporated into our daily lives. There’s no need to sit down and leaf through an album or pop in a video to relive the memories. You can diffuse the scent at home whenever you want - on date nights, anniversaries or other special occasions.“Ibiza” is the scent that was created for a very special client's dream wedding in Ibiza.

Aromatherapy has been around for centuries, but with its effects gaining popularity and media attention, we’re seeing a rise in trends and products. Outlined below are some of the technologies and methods that have become popular in the scenting industry: Cold-Air Diffusion: This new and innovative technology breaks down oils into a dry mist of nanoparticles, through the use of cold, filtered air. The dry fragrance mist is then released through the HVAC ducts to evenly distribute a scent to the desired areas of a space. It’s the safest and cleanest way to diffuse oils. HVAC Scenting: The diffusing of scent through a central heating and cooling system; this method is discreet, ultra-quiet, powerful and delivers consistent scent throughout large spaces. This system is often used in hotels, restaurants, museums, as well as private homes.

Realtors have for years paid mindful attention to the scent of the homes they are listing as there is no bigger turnoff to a potential buyer than the smell of smoke, animals or must. Traditionally, gimmicks such as baking cookies or pie have been deployed but new research has shown these scents can be overwhelming and may even serve as a distraction to the home-buying process. New research states the best way to scent a space for a potential sale is by introducing a clean and subtle scent. The best scents for scenting for a sale are citrus, green tea, cedar and pine.

Event scenting is frequently being used to enhance all types of events from movie premiers, concerts, weddings, product launches and parties. This is due to the ever increasingly wealth of research pointing to the fact that scent plays an important role in how people react to and remember certain events or products. The close connection between memory, emotion and our sense of smell can help to make the event even more memorable and special.

We get so many questions about what exactly is an essential oil so we thought it would be great to explain. An essential oil is a volatile liquid that is extracted through the process of distillation from the seed, root, bark, stem, leaf, fruit, flower, resin or wood of a plant. In literal terms, essentials oils are the ultra-concentrated essence of that plant. Once extracted, these oils can then be used for inhalation, ingestion, absorption and for creating all kinds of products. These oils have a lot of health benefits. The are delicate so they should never be heated. Using them with a cold air diffuser will provide the best results!!

   

Did you know... the beautiful city of Hong Kong was named to pay homage to the scent of agarwood? The pungent, earthy scent of this wood gave Hong Kong its name, which, in Cantonese, translates as Fragrant Harbour. The scent is a poignant reminder of how this former colonial trading port, now a world financial hub, once played a pivotal role in the ancient incense trade to the Middle East and beyond.
