Using fall-scented room sprays is a versatile and natural way to infuse your space with warm and cozy autumn aromas.
When you make your own fall room sprays, you can experiment with various combinations of fall essential oils to create your own customized fall scents.
While the hot sunny days of summer called for light, cool, citrusy, and floral scents, the cooler darker fall season calls for warmer, spicier aromas. Think nutmeg, clove, eucalyptus, and cinnamon. These are some of the best essential oils to use during the fall.
You can create a variety of fall-scented blends by mixing these four essential oils in various combinations along with a drop or two of floral or citrusy aromas to lend a touch of freshness to the blend. Some emit the aromas of fresh fallen leaves, while others may smell of the woods, fall air, or pumpkin spice.
The basic room spray recipe remains the same. The only difference is in the essential oils that you use to create different scents.
Basic Room Spray Instructions
Ingredients
Dark-colored, glass spray bottle
3 tablespoons witch hazel or 2 tablespoons vodka
6 tablespoons filtered water
25-30 drops of Essential oils of your choice (Scroll below for options)
Each of the ingredients mentioned above plays an important role in the ultimate result. This article on DIY Room Sprays with Essential Oils goes into detail about each ingredient.
Instructions
- Put the water and witch hazel (or vodka) into the spray bottle.
- Add 15 to 25 drops of your favorite fall essential oil or blend from the recipes below. I suggest starting with 15 drops and then adding more if you want a stronger scent.
- Shake gently to allow all the liquids to mix well and let it sit for a while.
- Spray a short burst into the air. If you find the scent too mild, add a few more drops of the blend into the mix.
- Always shake the bottle gently before using the spray. This will ensure that the essential oil is evenly distributed in the liquid.
This recipe is sufficient for one bottle of room freshener spray. Double or triple the recipe if you are making several fall room sprays to give away as gifts.
