Sometimes, the science behind the power of smells and the benefits of aromatherapy can leave much to the imagination but its effects are anything but subtle. Scent is an invisible signature, a sensory cue that influences mood, memory, and even physiology. At our luxury scent company, we believe that fragrance should not only smell exquisite but transform the space around you and the state within you. That is why we have paid close attention to the power of aromatherapy.
Aromatherapy is a holistic healing practice that uses natural plant extracts, commonly in the form of essential oils. Though often considered complementary therapy, aromatherapy has a growing body of scientific research supporting its physiological and psychological effects. When inhaled, scent molecules travel through the olfactory system directly to the brain’s limbic system. This is the area responsible for emotion, memory, and behavior. This is why certain aromas can evoke strong feelings or memories and can even alter your mood in real time.
For example:
• Lavender has been shown in clinical studies to reduce cortisol levels (the stress hormone) and promote relaxation. A whisper of its floral softness inside your vehicle can soften the transition between work and home, cultivating a calm on the road
• Eucalyptus is a bright and bracing aroma that brings both clarity and is widely used for its respiratory benefits. Its energising quality is also antimicrobial , acts as a stimulant and has respiratory benefits. Revitalising long commutes and midday fatigue.
• Sandalwood has sedative properties and can modulate brain activity related to calmness and emotional regulation. It is deep and its woody profile grounding, it has been used for centuries to reduce anxiety and encourage emotional balance. A cocoon of calm as you drive and invite a scent with depth.
