How to Enjoy Aromatherapy At Home: 5 Modern Ways

Our sense of smell is the key to unlocking a massive array of wonderful health benefits - and not just our physical health, but our mental and emotional wellbeing, too.

At Maison 21G, we believe in the evocative and multifaceted power of scent, and with our beautiful range of unusual bespoke gifts - and by putting you in touch with luxurious, sustainable and high-quality scent essences to blend and enjoy - we want everyone to benefit from aromatherapy at home.

We all have the ability to explore and benefit from aromatherapy for home use. Our brain, our nervous system and our emotional health is sensitively attuned to the various properties of all kinds of fragrances. Some scents have the power to relax, lulling the body and mind into a state of blissful calm. Some enliven and energise us, and others still help us to focus on our work or studies. We’ve all experienced how the right perfume can unlock higher levels of confidence and self-esteem, or how certain home fragrances help us to overcome nerves - this is aromatherapy in action, and the incredible power of scents at work in our minds, bodies and souls.

Today, we’re going to be taking a look at five tried-and-tested tips for bringing aromatherapy into our lives. From the gentle beauty of an aromatherapy candle burner to the best home aromatherapy techniques, we’ll be diving into the world of scent and wellbeing and revealing techniques for bringing this remarkable therapeutic practice into your everyday life.

Add Oils to Your Skin and Haircare

Essential oils - those concentrated expressions of precious natural ingredients - come in a vast variety of scents and concentrations, and many of them are suitable for blending with your skincare and haircare rituals.

By selecting oils known for their relaxing, romantic, energising or focus-giving properties, and blending them with body lotions, hair mists or other daily beauty products, you’ll be easily inviting their power and potential into your daily life.

A word of warning, however: some essential oils are not suitable for applying directly to the skin and may require substantial dilution or avoidance altogether. Be sure to do your research, and make sure you’re using an oil or concentration that will bring you the benefits you need without any irritation or unwanted side effects!

Bathe With Essential Oils

Is there anything better at the end of a long day than a relaxing soak in the bath? Spending some serious downtime in a steaming tub of hot water is well-known for its relaxing effects and bliss-inducing properties, but did you know that adding essential oils to your bathwater will elevate those features considerably further?

It’s a hugely effective and simple way to explore aromatherapy for home use, and to bring your favourite aromatherapy home fragrance into your relaxation routine. Add a few drops of calming lavender essential oils, sage, rose, rosemary or other oils known for their calming effects, and unwind as the fragrances work their magic on your body and mind.

Use Essential Oil Burners

If you’re looking for a way to introduce more of the power of natural and sustainable scents into your life, home aromatherapy diffusers like an essential oil burner should be your first port of call. These wonderful items, designed to slowly and steadily release the true potential of essential oils into your chosen space, will transform your home ambience with a remarkable potency and simplicity of use.

At Maison 21G, we created our Luciole Oil Burner - named after and inspired by the hypnotic glow of fireflies dancing on summer evenings - to make aromatherapy at home a truly luxurious encounter with scent. It couldn’t be more straightforward to use; you simply select your favourite essential oils based on the ambience you wish to reveal in your home or on your terrace, light a tea light candle, and let those wonderful fragrances blend and fill the air with clean, sustainable and natural scent.

As far as aromatherapy room fragrance goes, a Luciole Oil Burner hits the high notes of sophistication, style and efficiency. A beautifully-designed object - sure to be a talking point at any social gathering - and a home scent diffuser par excellence, it’s a hugely popular choice for those seeking to explore the true power of aromatherapy oils at home.

Swap Your Candle for a Scented Candle

Nothing compares to the beautiful ambience of candlelight at home. Lighting a candle or two at the end of the day immediately creates a soft and romantic atmosphere; one which relaxes the body and mind, elevates feelings of love and closeness, and helps us unwind after navigating the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Maison 21G produces a beautiful range of scented candles, designed to be blended side by side to unleash your signature fragrance combination. Made from 100% natural ingredients, these aromatherapy candles gently release their health-benefiting fragrances into their air, and whether burned individually or together, can transform any room into an ambience of relaxation, or provide atmospheres tailored to your specific mood. A truly sustainable and health-conscious choice, Maison 21G scented candles not only bring the benefits of an aromatherapy home fragrance, they are also completely safe for the whole family to breathe, are preservative-free, phthalate-free, CMR-free, paraffin-free and certified cruelty-free.

Incorporate Reed Diffusers as Unique Decors

Your unique home style is all about expressing yourself as an individual and letting your personality shine through the items you display in your rooms and living spaces. At Maison 21G, we believe in the power of beauty, of chic Parisian design, and in beautiful natural scent essences… and few Home Scent devices exemplify this quite like our Reed Diffuser.

If you’re looking to bring aromatherapy to your room, incorporating a reed diffuser as a design-led flourish is never a bad idea. These beautiful items by Maison 21G incorporate a sleek and minimalist design, inspired by the apothecary bottles of yesteryear, and never fail to fascinate or lend an air of sophistication. The best part?
