BLENDING HOME

Interior perfume blending: with these tips you can create
a unique fragrance experience at home

Blending your interior perfume is a smart way to personalise the fragrance experience at home and adapt it to your mood or an occasion. The idea behind blending is to combine different scents to create a totally unique, pleasing ambience. But how do you get started with this? With these tips, you can soon get started.

Tip 1: Vary with room sprays, scented candles and diffusers


There are different ways to diffuse home perfume, such as room spraysscented candles and (electric) diffusers. For example, use a diffuser that you like and combine it with a lovely cream spray to give a sophisticated touch to the fragrance experience in your home. For example, try pairing the atmospheric Dr Vranjes Oud Nobile Sticks with the freshness of Zenology's Citrus Nobilis Ambiance Trigger. The fresh citrus scent of the room spray combines well with the fragrance of Oud Nobile, which is particularly suitable for promoting your focus and concentration. By using a diffuser and blending it with a room spray, you get an interesting mix of scents. You can also pair two diffusers together. The Oud Nobile Sticks together with the brand's Ginger & Lime Sticks, which blend fresh notes of lime with the spicy notes of ginger for a sparkling, welcoming ambience. Experiment with different types of interior perfume to find out what works best for the spaces in your home.

 

Tip 2: Go for fragrance notes that complement each other

You can never go wrong when blending fragrances by choosing scent notes that complement each other. Lavender and vanilla, for example, are ingredients that complement each other. For example, you can perfectly pair Divine Vanille Candle from Essential Parfums with Dr Vranjes' Terra Sticks, which combine vanilla and lavender with musk. Or opt for a more pronounced combination, by combining the Vanille Candle with the Eccentric Scented Candle by AUGUST&PIERS.

Tip 4: Choose a base scent

Blending fragrances becomes easier if you have a good base scent. In perfumes, certain fragrance notes are more often used in the base notes, as they give more body to a perfume's olfactory pyramid. Some fragrance notes that lend themselves well to this are sandalwood, cedarwood, vanilla and patchouli. You can create the following combinations with these fragrance notes:



Do you already have a favourite scented candle, room spray or diffuser and would like to give it a unique twist? Then use it as a base scent, and give it a twist by varying it with other special interior fragrances. Have questions about which combinations work with your favourite interior fragrance?

Tip 5: Experiment with different scents and intensities

Have you found a nice combination, but does one of the scents fall away against the others? Then try experimenting. If you use a room spray, you can spray it less or more, for a more powerful or less intense fragrance experience. If you want your scented candle or diffuser to stand out more, consider placing it in a different place in the room. By placing the products in a different spot, the fragrance can spread better (or less), making the fragrance experience more noticeable. This creates a more balanced ambience in the room. Take Juliette has a Gun's Not a Candle, for example. This beloved creation creates a sophisticated ambience when combined with Maison Francis Kurkdjian's Baccarat Rouge 540 Candle. Two iconic perfumes together, but you might want to adjust the fragrance intensity. Instead of the Not a Candle, you can use the Not A Home Diffuser. Compared to the scented candle, the diffuser provides a more constant fragrance experience. Thus, together with the scented candle, you create a powerful interplay that creates a sensory experience.

Tip 6: Adapt the fragrance experience to the season, time of day and space

Each season suits a different fragrance experience. In winter, go for peppermint, vanilla, sandalwood and cedarwood. During spring, everything comes into bloom. Then you can go for a fresh and floral ambience, such as notes of lemon, rose, jasmine and lilac. With warm summer, sunny scent notes suit. Then choose coconut, lavender and bergamot. And finally, as autumn approaches, you can enjoy a sweet and spicy fragrance experience. Then think of notes of cinnamon, apple and pumpkin.

Yet, of course, you don't have to use certain fragrance notes for a whole season. You can also adapt the fragrance experience to the time of day. Fresh scents like bergamot, eucalyptus or tuberose work well for the morning, while warm scents like vanilla or sandalwood give a fine fragrance experience in the evening.

Finally, the rooms in your home also each have their own purpose. In the bedroom, you might want to opt for calming soothing ingredients, while in the study or living room, you find energetic and warm ingredients more appropriate.
