Why Scent Matters in Interior Design

When we think of interior design, we often think of color, furniture, and lighting. But what about scent? Scent in interior design plays a powerful and often overlooked role in shaping how we feel in a space.

• Memory and Mood Connection
  Scent is the strongest sense tied to memory. A familiar fragrance can evoke nostalgia, peace, or even energize a room. Think of warm vanilla in a reading nook, or citrus in a lively kitchen.
• Fragrance Zoning
  Assign different scents to different areas of your home. Use calming lavender in bedrooms, fresh eucalyptus in bathrooms, and crisp grapefruit in living spaces.
• Subtle is Key
  Choose high-quality candles or diffusers like those offered by House of Barrie. They deliver fragrance that is refined and long-lasting, never overpowering.

Incorporating scent into your interiors can subtly elevate your home’s atmosphere, making it more welcoming and truly complete.
