Hey everyone! I would love to know if you have any of your own scent tips! Would you share below? 😍

Opening windows every morning for like 10 to 15 minutes (aka Lüften) is actually like citiziens duty here in germany😁 A really nice tip i got from my mom is to store little bags of dried lavender in between your clothes, its actually to keep moths away, but also leaves a sublte lavender smell on your clothes and in your closet😍 (plus they can look really cute, made out of patterned fabric or with embroidery)

Ha! I love this! Got some good tips. BUT! Open the windows where I live (in the Deep South country) and you’ll get a nice aroma of cow manure, along with some added flies accompanied by a wonderful wave of 90% humidity and a 95 degree heat wave all 4 seasons of the year. ❤️❤️❤️ we do NOT open windows in the southern country.

FIRE HAZARD!!! The tip with putting essential oils on light bulbs can cause FIRES as the bulbs can get too hot and/ or the oil can get down in the contacts and cause a short! This was from several fire depts so please double check this before doing!! "Nearly all essential oils are flammable. There are a few such as wintergreen, sandalwood, and clove bud that have flashpoints above the required 199.4 degrees Fahrenheit specified by OSHA to be classified as flammable. However, they can all catch fire fairly easily. The flashpoint for essential oils can range from 100 to 215 degrees Fahrenheit (37 to 102 Celsius). The average flashpoint is around 140 degrees Fahrenheit, which classifies as a Class 3 flammable liquid by OSHA."

A pro tip for getting rid of smells without covering/mixing them with other scents: Spray vodka on it (and air it out)! My sister taught me this. She is a Costume Designer and often works with garments, wigs or puppets that are pretty much impossible to wash. The alcohol gets rid of odors without harming most materials and (depending on the percentage of alcohol) may even act as a desinfectant.
One thing I learned from my mom: Dried lavender in a little linen bag works wonders in any closet or sock drawer! ;)
And in case you have a mint or sage plant in your home: Just pluck a leave every other day, even if you don't use it right away (just freeze it in an ice cube or something). The plant will release it's natural scent in response.
Also, I just wanted to add: I hate the Febreze smell, too. My other no-nos are artificial vanilla and the NIVEA scent. I don't know how well known NIVEA skincare is outside of Germany, but it's so common round here that it can be a challenge to avoid.

Europeans always air the house in the morning, before making beds, and in the evening - before sleep, even on winter evenings. European windows open towards inside, so you can often wash the outside, and they have an option to open angled, top in, so you don't have to remove anything from the window sill.
Love your channel! Thank you for sharing so many useful ideas!

I have a shallow dish on my kitchen countertop filled with white vinegar. It eliminates all the cooking odors that do no go the fan over the stove. Really good when I have cooked fish...

[teeblackwell]

I love the smell of pine. It's smells so clean and fresh. One of my favorite candle scent is "Frasier Fur". Omg ☺️

[MLNoff]

I'm walking around implementing these ideas. Re palo santo, I love briefly burning the sticks in my home. Great smell, lots of positive energy, and a single stick lasts months.

[JesusisKing]

I take cotton and a few drops of essential oils and attach it to my ceiling fan (on the blade side facing the ceiling to hide it) when you turn on your fan you'll spread a very nice smell instantly

[nikierna]

vanilla keeps those "no see em" biting little bugs away! Learned it from a farmer, even the cheapo bodyspray ones totally work!

[anikosebesteny]

Just wow! I actually never make my home smell, just try to keep it tidy. You are inspiring me to start. :) Thank you !

[lisacalhoun]

Wow thank you! As someone sensitive to synthetic fragrances, I really appreciate the wide variety of tips you shared, especially how to make your own essential oil products.

[SevenAnomone]

Love this! In the winter, I use dried pine cones that I saturate with a christmas blend scent and leave them as decoration in strategic places. Wow the dryer sheet is a great tip.

[leighrinker]

My great-grandmother taught me to use a pot of water simmering on the stove with mulling spices in it to sent my home. I add orange peels when I have them at the time. I've also done orange peels and rosemary simmering. If the water gets low you just add more and it works fabulously. I usually save the extra to be used another time until it wears out.

[glg]

I've been doing the perfume and body spray as room sprays for years, but not in the bathmats. Great idea. The dryer sheet thing has been in my repertoire for a long time too.

[arunagopalakrishnan]

I don't know a thing about interior design but you are me teaching several beautiful things. One day when my family has our own home, I am taking these ideas along. Thank you so much 😘

[rachelking]

I didn't think about flipping the sticks in the Defuser. Thank you for that tip.

[charleensolnik]

I dust all furniture and wipe door levers and light switches Murphy Oil Soap in water. It makes the whole house smell clean.

You are adorable, a great presenter and - as a single dude living solo - your knowledge and experience are golden. I now will think much more about how my pad smells and how to make it smell delicious.
