Large spaces like ceremony halls, banquet rooms, theaters and great rooms are where we gather for key life moments. But these spaces can sometimes feel cold and impersonal. Fragrance makes large spaces feel more inviting and cozier by creating sensory experiences tied to emotion.
Use scent-scaping — strategically layering fragrance to transform spaces — to fill large rooms with scent and create connection.
Fragrances for scenting large spaces: challenges
Scenting a large space is no easy feat. The trick lies in finding a fragrance system (or several) with enough “throw.” Throw is the physical distance a fragrance can travel from its source while maintaining a scent that’s strong enough to be experienced, but not overwhelming. Large open spaces, like big basements, require a bit of strategy.
For example, smaller fragrance systems like candles or incense are used in more intimate settings and come with the danger of open flame that must be monitored for safety. Fragrance sprays work great but must be used frequently.
Fragrances for scenting large rooms: solutions
Here are several strategies (and products!) to scent large spaces:
- Team up: One of the simplest solutions is to use multiple Scentsy Warmers or Diffusers strategically throughout the space. Scent is evenly distributed, creating a harmonious ambience in the room.
- Layer up: Layer different Scentsy fragrances that complement each other. Using multiple scents boosts the throw and adds complexity to the fragrance experience. Learn how to effectively layer fragrances.
- Air up: The new Scentsy Air makes a maximum instant fragrance impact and works great in large areas. This high-performance fan diffuser delivers customizable fragrance in spaces from 200 to 1,000 square feet. It holds up to four Scentsy Pods and features a sleek fabric-style shade that fits with any décor.
- Change up: If a space is short on outlets, unplugged fragrance options are a versatile, effective choice. Scentsy Fragrance Flowers are beautiful and add charm to tables and décor. Scentsy Scent Circles, Car Bars and Scent Paks are discreet and affordable. These portable fragrant wonders add a burst of fragrance wherever you need it most.
Adding fragrance to a large space doesn’t have to be daunting. Just pick a strategy, a system and scents to create a warm and inviting atmosphere that fills every corner of even the biggest room.
