Scent
Scent is the fastest way to change how a room feels and the easiest to get wrong. Too little and it never registers; too much and it becomes the only thing anyone notices.
These notes cover how home fragrance actually behaves — why scent throw depends more on air movement and room size than on the strength of the fragrance, how air conditioning shortens the time a scent lingers, and how to layer fragrance between rooms so a home smells considered rather than confused. We also cover matching a scent to a room's purpose: something warm and resinous for evenings, something cleaner and lighter for a kitchen or entrance.
