Raise your hand if you could use a mood booster! We feel ya. And while a sweet treat + a little light meditation are quick fixes, we’re all about the long game.
In case you didn’t know, scents are considered serious mood boosters. (Subtle mention at the fact that ours are made sustainably + with safer ingredients… a win/win for you + the planet). Here’s a quick guide we put together on the best scent notes to help boost your mood:Â

This rich, warm, woodsy scent is known for its therapeutic powers, like helping to lower your anxiety. It’s particularly calming to your nervous system, so insomniacs should give this a try.
Where you’ll find it: if you’re looking for hints of cedarwood, try our red poppies + rosewood or sea salt + aloe scents.
