These Room Fragrances Will Make Your Home Look Prettier And Smell Better

When the warmer weather sets in, a lot of less-than-savory smells start to take over. We're talking the subtle corn chip odor that wafts from old Birkenstocks and that indefinable summer scent that's just ... sweat personified. And while candles normally help chase those unwanted aromas away, they can make spaces feel hotter.

That's why we rounded up a few of our favorite smell-good room fragrances. They're aesthetically pleasing, but most importantly, they work. Get ready to say sayonara to any foul scents.

1. Voluspa Limited Edition Japonica Reed Diffuser, $24

The packaging for this Voluspa diffuser is gorgeous, so just this once you can judge a book by its cover. The Japanese Plum Bloom scented oil smells sweet and spicy at the same time. And while the throw is strong it's not overpowering

2. P.F. Candle Co. Incense, $9

You don't even need to light these P.F. Candle Co. Incense sticks to benefit from them. Pop 'em into a pretty jar, and the smell will emanate all over. If you do choose to burn them, however, you'll notice that each one has a use time of about 60 minutes. But the smell lingers for hours on end! The Coconut Grove scent is a fave because it's warm, citrusy, and sweet. Plus, at only $9 for 15 sticks, the price is a steal.

3. Anthropologie Floral Fragrance Jar, starting at $58

Another pretty product that works, this floral jar is like an upgrade of your mom's basic potpourri. The dried botanicals inside the glass vary, but they include things such as vanilla, tangerine, lavender, and verbena.

4. P.F. Candle Co. Room Spray, $18

Sure, you could buy Febreeze if you want a room spray, but it won't be nearly as potent as this one from P.F. Candle Co. The classic amber glass packaging is sleek and boho at the same time. And with just a few spritzes, the deodorizer wafts everywhere. Use it on curtains, in the bathroom, or even on bedding for a quick refresher anytime. And we obviously dig it in the infamous Teakwood & Tobacco scent.

5. June & May Essential Oil Diffuser, $45

This June & May diffuser is what dreams are made of. It looks like antiqued brass and can make your home feel like a Moroccan spa. Plus, it has LED lights if you want to stimulate your visual senses as well as your olfactory ones.

6. Anthropologie Floral Diffuser Oil, $10

You're going to need essential oils for that diffuser, and these ones are the perfect accompaniment. The scents vary from woodsy to fresh to floral, and they're great alone. But feel free to mix them and create a special one that's unique to your place.

7. Anthropologie Floral Bouquet Diffuser, $28

If you want to impress your family members or housemates, this is how you do it. Get a reed diffuser that doubles as a floral bouquet. These ones from Anthropologie are somewhat petite but so impactful. Place one among your other decor on a shelfie or keep it in your entryway so you get a sweet whiff every time you walk through the door.

8. Capri Blue Activated Charcoal Sticks, $18

Capri Blue Activated Charcoal Sticks room fragrancesCapri Blue

Now these Capri Blue Activated Charcoal Sticks actually remove scents instead of adding them, but that's a good thing. They zap funky scents right out of the air, and they look cute at the same time. Throw them in a dish by the couch, and you'll notice the improved air quality in no time.
