The Art of Scent Layering at home

Throw open the shutters, roll back the bifold doors; the new season promises sunshine, colourful blooms and fluffy fragrant blossom overhead. Replicate the feeling of air, space and positive renewal by adding scented sensorial touches to every room. Experiment with how you use fragrance in your home and elevate the mood. Choose floral and bright citrus notes to echo the springtime energy outside.

Jo’s guide to interior scent layering

From her home to yours: Jo’s passion for fragrance is imbued through every part of her London and Dubai homes. She shares her insider secrets on how to scent layer to achieve beautiful olfactory impact.

Create a bespoke cleaning blend

Elevate your house chores by mixing up your own home cleanser. Jo adds a few pumps of Pomelo A Bath & Shower Gel to her water spray to create an invigorating, gentle surface cleanser that works well on kitchen worktops, dressing tables and bathroom sinks.

Bed Linen Bliss

After you make your bed in the morning, spritz your sheets with your favourite fragrance. The scent settles on the fabric, revealing its unique mix of notes from top to base, that lingers until after lights out.

Mix up your formats

Curating a combination of home fragrance forms adds more sensorial impact and ‘throw’. (how much a scent permeates a room). Think of how you would style a floral display; with a variety of stems, heights and foliage. Layer candles, diffusers and room sprays to create depth and a multi-faceted aesthetic.

The Art of Scent Layering at Home

Match the mood of your room

Select your scents carefully to suit the space they are going to live in. Citrus fragrances work well in a kitchen, florals make exquisite additions to a bathroom, ouds and woods are sumptuous in the bedroom.

Spa at home

Turn your bath into a sublime scented ritual by adding a generous splash of Bath Cologne. Not only will it fragrance the water, the scent will fill the whole bathroom and beyond.

A fragrant tablescape

Tablescaping isn’t just about beautiful cutlery, linens and china. A mixture of unique candles and diffusers intensify the wow factor. Select fragrances that epitomise the essence of spring. Think white flowers, roses and luminous citrus notes.
