Which essential oils can I use for the room spray?
If you want to make your own room spray, you should definitely use pure, natural essential oils like those from Casida. You can tell from the list of ingredients whether the oils are genuine essential oils (plant essences) or just synthetic fragrances. Choose the essential oil that's right for you. Different oils have different effects on the body and mind. The number of drops of each oil you use depends on how intense you want the room spray to smell. Here are a few ideas:
Calming atmosphere
- Lavender oil, orange oil, patchouli oil, or ready-made "Sleep Well" Fragrance Blend
Mood-enhancing
- Lemon oil, orange oil, bergamot oil, grapefruit oil, or ready-made Fragrance Blend "Happiness & Joy"
For good concentration
- Eucalyptus oil, peppermint oil, rosemary oil, or ready-made Fragrance Blend "Concentration & Focus"
Disinfectant effect for colds
- Tea tree oil, eucalyptus oil, peppermint oil, or ready-made Fragrance Blend "Breathe Through"
For a truly individual scent, you can mix the essential oils as you wish or combine them with our ready-made fragrance blends. Create a pleasant room climate with your homemade, natural room spray and benefit from the power of nature.
You need these ingredients
- 100 ml spray bottle (glass spray bottles, for example, available from Aromawelt.de)
- 70 ml water (preferably distilled)
- 30 ml alcohol (40% ABV or higher) (e.g., vodka)
- 5 g baking soda
- 5–10 drops of essential oils of your choice
How can I make my own room spray?
Mix the water with the baking soda until dissolved. Then add the alcohol and stir well. Now add drops of the essential oil of your choice. Pour everything into an empty spray bottle using a funnel. Done. Shake the air freshener well before each use.
Why a air freshener with baking soda?
Baking soda can neutralize unpleasant odors and has a disinfectant effect. Therefore, it's an excellent addition to air fresheners.
Tip: Using air fresheners does not replace regular airing of rooms.
