Diffuser, candle, other, none?

What do you use, in what rooms, and why?

I currently have wax burners in front room, kitchen and bedroom.

Usually the relax/unwind or similar, wax melts from B&M.

You can melt them a few times before the scent fades. Works out cheaper than candles, I always used to get them from tkmaxx... But it was getting expensive!

I have a cheap USB diffuser for kitchen/ bathroom (they're right opposite each other). Neither have windows in my place and both can be the source of... smells. I use lemon oil.

In my office I use peppermint oil in an oil burner with tea lights

I have candles in most rooms, and sometimes I have diffusers but mainly for seasonal scents (Christmas etc)

For room mists/sprays etc, I have perfumes in every room

I use incense a lot, but in a ventilated area (near a window opened up a crack).

I use scented candles.

I also like a good pot pourri.

I tend to go for comforting fragrances (cinnamon etc) to aid in relaxation, rather than to just smell nice.

I have wax melt burners in every room. I try to keep them all to the same scent. Asda does a nice range and b&m.

I’m loving the fabulosa ones at the minute, they smell so fresh

I’ve got a scented plug-in in the hallway and I light a couple of scented candles (usually vanilla, almond or amber type scents) as soon I finish work. It’s part of my evening routine and helps me relax.

None. I have a very sensitive sense of smell and I find many smells overpowering. I prefer a neutral/unscented world!

I am a sucker for Yankee candles. Usually get them when they are on sale though as I can't justify the full price. My favourites are Red Apple Wreath, Red Raspberry and Wedding Day.

Mmmmmm Lemongrass and Bergamot. My favourite. I mix them 30/70 and have it in the Livingston in an oil diffuser.

Heavenly.

Depends on the mood but I use.

Candles for ambient effects.

Oil/wax melts over a candle for a subtle longer lasting smell when I don't need the candle light.

Also have a diffuser for a quicker burst if I'm out.

Sucker for more natural "flavours" xx

None normally, I open all the windows to get fresh air through.

Maybe light the occasional candle.

No pets, no smokers, and no young children mean less to mask.

(Obviously my farts smell of roses )

Scented candles are really bad for you as are all petroleum based products. Burning them in your home is the wosrt

I use non.

I've tried many but they seem an expensive folly and they are time consuming.

I like my house to smell of house and in any case for more than six months of the year my windows are open 24/7
