Finding Your Grounding Scent

Soft Woods

Chandan and Signature Santal are the two sandalwoods, one warm and creamy, the other dry with cedar.

Leather And Suede

Pure Leather and Black Suede are the darker side. Pure Leather is worn leather and amber, and Black Suede adds olibanum and saffron.

Amber, Fir And Green Wood

Rouge Royale, Luxury Hotel and Midnight Pearl bring amber. Fraser Fir is the evergreen, and 1 Way is clean green over pale wood.

Aroma Country diffuser oil used two ways, as a fine mist room spray with the included sprayer and as a cold air scent diffuser, offering versatile whole-home fragrance from a single bottle

Two Ways To Use Every Bottle

Each bottle can also be used as a room spray with the included fine mist attachment. Because the formula is concentrated and oil-based, a light spray is all you need to fill a room. Avoid spraying directly on leather, vinyl, wood, or painted surfaces, and be cautious over bare floors which can become slippery with repeated use.

What Makes A Scent Feel Grounding

Most grounding scents are built on base notes: woods, resins, leather and amber. In a perfume these are the notes you notice last, after the lighter top notes fade.

Sandalwood is the clearest example. It has been used in incense and perfume for thousands of years, prized for a smooth, creamy warmth that lingers. Our two versions show its range: Chandan is sandalwood on its own, and Signature Santal adds cedar, amber and leather.

Cedar, fir and leather take the same idea in different directions. Cedar is dry and pencil-like, since cedar is the classic pencil wood, fir is green and resinous, and leather is dark and worn. Amber sits underneath many of them, adding a soft, rounded warmth.

These scents suit rooms where people settle in: living rooms, dens and studies. Most are less seasonal than florals or bakery scents, so they work year round.

Our Best Grounding Scents

Sándalo Signature Santal

Dry santal and cedar. Sandalwood and cedar with amber, iris and a little leather, for living rooms and home offices.

Chandan - Sándalo

Warm sandalwood. Chandan is the Hindi word for sandalwood, and this is sandalwood on its own.

Cuero puro

Worn leather and dry wood. It opens on smoky bergamot, with spice and amber under the leather.

Gamuza negra

Dark suede and soft smoke. Olibanum, another name for frankincense, gives it an incense edge.

1 vía

Clean green and pale wood. One of our best sellers, with leather, sandalwood and amber underneath.

Rojo real

Saffron, amber and cedar. Ambergris in the heart and fir resin at the base, for living rooms and dining rooms.

Abeto de Fraser / Aguja de pino

Cut fir and pine needle. The forest side of the collection, and one of our most reviewed scents.

Perla de medianoche

Black amber and cool sea air. Deep amber with a cool edge, for living rooms and bedrooms.

Hotel de lujo

Polished amber and soft musk. One of our best sellers, for entryways and living rooms.

peluquería

Talcum, amber and fir needle. Vetiver and cedarwood give it woody depth, for bathrooms and home offices.

Campos de lavanda

Dried lavender in the sun. Lavender over cedarwood, the herbal pick in the group.

Tips For Using Grounding Scents

Start Low

Start on a low setting and turn it up only if the room needs more.

Evenings For Suede

Black Suede and Midnight Pearl suit evenings in a den or living room.

Balance With Something Fresh

In an open floor plan, pair a wood like Signature Santal in the living room with Fraser Fir in the entryway.
