Improve your mood with Citrus – The clean fresh smell of citrus not only cuts through nasty orders in a room, it is also improves mood. A crisp tangy smell will enlighten a room and your soul.

Try these Citrus Smells: Sunkissed Citrus, Verbena Berry, Grapefruit Blossom, and Grapefruit Pomegranate

Cut cravings with Vanilla - Not only does Vanilla comforts the psyche, arouses desire, and calm anxiety; it may also help you lose weight. In a study done by Brown university, the smell of Vanilla curbs your appitite. Here’s the theory, the sweet smell of vanilla sends neuropeptides, (stomach to brain messengers) into overload fooling you into thinking you’ve satisfied your sweet tooth.

Thy these great Vanilla Smells - Vanilla Cream, Vanilla Walnut (my favorite), and Cinnamon Vanilla, also Luxe Vanilla (I don’t think this even smells like Vanilla)

Enhance your brain power with Cinnamon – Lots of people love the smell of Cinnamon. Little did they know they were improving their mind too. Research led by Dr. P. Zoladz found that just smelling cinnamon boosted your brain activity specifically on tasks related to attentional processes, virtual recognition memory, working memory, and visual-motor speed.

Here are some wonderful Cinnamon Scents - Welcome Home, Cinnamon Bear, Cinnamon Cider (milder cinnamon scent), Clove and Cinnamon, and Sticky Cinnamon Bun

Improve love life with these scents– There are many scents thought to improve love life, such as Vanilla, Rose, Ginger, Sandalwood, Patchouli , and Jasmine. These scents are more subjective. I suggest finding one that you both like and trying it out, who knows what may happen.

Here are some scents you may enjoy- Cranberry Spice (Ginger), Exotic Vanilla (Vanilla, Jasmine, Sandalwood, and Patchouli), Falling Leaves (patchouli), Sandalwood and Cranberries, Enchanted Mist (Jasmine, and Rose), and Sweet Indulgence (Sandalwood)

Bring back memories with scents– the best thing about scent (or the worst) is their ability to bring back memories, Christmas at grandmas, your old school, your first crush, we so often associate what we smell with what happened in our past.

Here are some scents that have brought back memories from many people - Clean Breeze (memories of mother taking out the laundry), Lots of Lavender (memories of Grandma’s house), Beach (swimming at the beach), Baked Apple Pie (mom’s or Grandma’s apple pie), Strawberry Sweetie (Playing as a child).
