As far as I’m concerned, all beauty products are aromatherapy. That’s because I wouldn’t dream of buying any product—for face, body or home—unless it smells wonderful. So what better way to increase the beauty in our lives than by adding appealing scents to the home? Just as we like to surround ourselves with attractive accessories and furnishings, we can use scent to enhance the ambience of our environment through candles, sachets and room diffusers. You have to look only as far as your favorite beauty brands to find these.
