Now you just need to talk someone else into putting the chocolates on your pillow for the nightly turndown.
Check out your favorite posh hotel’s website.
It makes a wonderful souvenir!
“Most of our most popular scents have a woodiness to them.
But it doesn’t have to be a dark, heavy wood to get that luxury feel.”
Wood notes such as cedar, sandalwood, and teak can be perfect base notes for a luxe fragrance.
So if you love bergamot, opt for citrusy scents throughout your home.
Fabrigas recommends sticking with lighter fragrances in spring and summer, such as Mediterranean linen or sea-salt and sage.
“They’re brisk and light and have a lighter, cheerier scent.”
You don’t even have to splurge on a pricey bouquet.
And in addition to the scent, you get the visual boost from the flowers, too.
Keep It Subtle
No one wants to be walloped with scent when they drop your home.
Just againbe mindful of not going overboard.
“You want scents that are clean and fresh.
That make us feel like a house is taken care ofnot anything too strong,” Helft says.
