The sweet smell of pumpkin spice pervading the air can mean only one thing: fall has arrived. But what is it that makes this delightful aroma so synonymous with autumn? Why do we associate the delicious bouquet with this time of year in particular?  The answer is quite simple—it’s that of memory. The Emotional Link Smell is the only one of our five senses that’s transmitted directly to the emotional center of the brain. The molecules of an odor hit the nose and travel straight to the area that’s involved with learning and memory, the amygdala. This causes certain fragrances to instantly trigger memories of times we smelled a particular scent in the past. The more times this association is made, the stronger the link becomes. The delicious aroma of pumpkin spice is one that’s been favored at this time of year since the 1930s. The scent of sweet baked pumpkin is one that fires memories of the autumn harvest, Halloween, Thanksgiving… In short, it signals the beginning of the holiday season, something most of us connect with happy childhood memories that linger, no matter how many years along the path of life we might be right now. Spice Up Your Life With Comforting Seasonal Aromas Scenting your home or business premises with a carefully curated fragrance not only puts you in the holiday frame of mind, but it also has a great effect on mood and morale because of this subconscious link between delicious pumpkin spice and good times. The aroma of baked pumpkin bubbling away in nutmeg, clove, cinnamon, and brown sugar, evokes sweet memories. This has the effect of stimulating the body to produce the hormone dopamine, a vital natural chemical that plays a pivotal role in how happy we feel. In both the home and work environment such benefits are multiple: boosting positive emotions and generally increasing the feel good factor for all who enter such a deliciously scented location. Elegant Scenting Solutions  Delivering the ultimate seasonal pumpkin spice fragrance to a chosen area is now easily done using the technologically advanced process of cold air diffusion via a  scent diffuser machine. Such an option uses an existing HVAC system to bring a level of uniform fragrance to areas of all sizes, from a single room to an entire building with multiple levels. Aroma360 provides such scenting solutions to suit both home and business, all of which use a gentle, environmentally friendly process to diffuse the molecules of their therapeutic grade essential oils throughout the desired area.  The exquisite fragrance of their delectable Pumpkin Spice is the perfect complement to the upcoming holiday season. In addition to enjoying the scent through their range of scent diffuser machines, you can also choose the atmospheric alternative of a classic candle presented in a wonderfully seasonal harvest orange glass jar.

The effect of scent on our emotions is well understood, yet the real reasons a certain essence can lift your mood and improve well-being might not be quite as expected. Studies have shown that our response to certain aromas is through learned associative mechanisms—in other words, our brain creates a link between a fragrance and a particular emotion. This makes it possible to determine scents that not only boost mood, but that can have a powerful effect on our well being too. Using items such as  scent diffusers and scented candles, particularly those that use only the highest quality of aromatic and essential oils, it’s possible to not only infuse our surroundings with a fine bouquet, but to effectively uplift how happy we feel. Consequently, this also has the desired effect of increasing levels of well-being too. The Top Scents Proven To Increase Happiness 1. Citrus: The crisp, distinctive smell of citrus fruits—lemon in particular—encourages feelings of delight, as well as boosting energy levels and reducing levels of stress. Market scent leader, Aroma360, bring the wonders of citrus bouquets to life in their signature scents, Born to Run and  California Love. The latter in particular embraces the freshness of lemongrass and lemon zest, making a wonderful home scenting option for those who seek to permeate their surroundings with feminine cleanliness to boost tranquility and calmness. 2. Lavender: Well known for its relaxing properties, breathing in the soothing tones of this wonderful plant helps reduce stress, soothes anxiety, and has long been used to create an atmosphere conducive to sleep. Blue Moon is a carefully crafted aromatic blend made from the finest of therapeutic-grade essential oils that combine the calming notes of lavender with the sensuality of eucalyptus, sandalwood, and patchouli to gently massage the senses and subtly calm frayed nerves. 3. Jasmine: The delights of Jasmine can have an immediate effect on mood, increasing levels of contentment, along with elevated feelings of positivity. Suffusing a room or home with the delights of this attractive scent creates an elegant atmosphere, one that’s especially beneficial in fostering a creative or productive environment. Adore, by Aroma360, is designed around the delights of jasmine, combining its discerning aroma with that of bergamot, amber, and woody notes for the ultimate in gentle yet uplifting fragrance. 4. Vanilla: The seductive tones of vanilla are among the most powerful of all aromas to evoke feelings of happiness. The rich tones massage the inner psyche, aiding relaxation as well as elevating a sense of joy. Combining the heady scent of vanilla with that of complementary baked apple and cinnamon fragrances brings us the delight that is Aroma360’s Apple Cinnamon—a delicious scent option for the upcoming holiday season. 5. Peppermint: A crisp, minty fragrance can have a dramatic effect on mood, attitude, and concentration. The pure invigoration it brings can be enhanced with the clever use of harmonizing aromas, such as eucalyptus and citrus, as can be found in the entrancing Aroma360 scent, Wake Me Up. Selecting the ultimate home scenting options adds a distinctive dimension to a cultivated environment. The choice of fragrance is as much of a feature as those that are visual, and the hand-crafted bespoke scents Aroma360 provides are the quintessential ingredient for the most refined of home spaces.

Once dismissed as “the forgotten sense” in the book Aroma: The Cultural History of Smell, the power of scent is now embraced as a potent tool to stir human emotions, evoke memories, and bring about a multi-dimensional experience. This is particularly poignant when it comes to the museum environment, where artifacts and treasures provide man with the ability to traverse time and link to our fore-bearers of yesteryear. While sight and sound are perhaps the most dominant of human senses when enjoying an exhibition, the addition of carefully formulated aromas adds a whole new dimension to the encounter.  Atmospheric Scenting Enhances the Visitor Experience The use of aroma can upscale visitor perception from that of simply viewing artifacts to the feeling of actually being transported to the place on show, because fragrance goes straight to the area of the brain that controls emotions and memory. Combined with sound, touch, and even taste, museum curators can lead their visitors on a multi-faceted sensory journey through time. Museum scenting is being utilized in locations small and large. Notable examples include the use of strategic floral scenting by the National Archeological Museum of Athens in its 150th anniversary exhibition, Countless Aspects of Beauty, and the New York Museum of Art and Design who built a whole exhibition around the concept in their 2012 spectacle, The Art of the Scent. Imagine wandering a 1950s exhibition and breathing in the comforting bouquet of freshly baked bread, as was the case at the Ohio Historical Society’s recreation of commonplace activities of the decade. Or perhaps breathing the scent of violets as you gaze upon Belle Epoque artworks? The right choice of fragrance truly alters perception, bringing further connection and a sense of immediacy to the objets d’art on display. Ambient Scenting Solutions for All Of course, the location of an exhibition has a direct bearing on how easy it is to infuse the air with the required scent. The size and scale of the display space, along with the fact that many museums are housed in buildings that are themselves a part of history and therefore might have their own odors, makes for a skilled approach to effectively bring about the optimum bouquet. Harnessing the latest technology has overcome many of these challenges, and scent experts, Aroma360, bring the concept of HVAC scent machines to environments of all sizes. Such a solution allows for uniform scenting of an area and the easy ability to do so around a particular display, room, or that of a complete building. Exhibition curators work with the scent company to establish the exact fragrances necessary to amplify visitor experience in a way that lighting and sound alone can’t match. Partnering with professional scent creators—known as aromachologists—allows exhibition designers to further enhance their works of art, increasing desirability and subtly yet effectively taking their display to a previously unattainable level. Connection is key, and the art of museum scenting is the next step to a truly immersive visitor experience.
