Dear How To Spa readers,<\/span><\/p>\n

You might have noticed that in all our relaxation guides, among the products we recommend for a great relaxing moment, we often suggest scented candles, mists, home perfumes and other scented cosmetics. All these items were picked with care to offer you the best of any result you\u2019re after; relaxing, energising, detox. The reason behind it is that your sense of smell has a major role to play in your relaxation, just like your other 4 senses. Awakening the five senses is the key to a true spa treatment or therapy. <\/span><\/p>\n

There is a scientific explanation behind it; neuroscientists have demonstrated a close link between our sense of smell and our emotions. Patty Canac, a perfume expert, has been working on the subject for several years now, in partnership with medical and health experts. Together they designed a healing therapy for patients with speech and memory disorders, based on olfactotherapy (A therapy using the sense of smell). <\/span><\/p>\n

Some flowers and citrus fruits such as lavender, bergamot, mandarin, ylang-ylang, vanilla, Jasmin and lotus are commonly used for their soothing effect.
\nSome stronger or spicier scents, often referred to as more \u2018masculine\u2019, can have an invigorating effect, such as ginger, cinnamon, oud wood or scots pine.
\nSome other scents have a true detox effect on your body and mind. Lemon, Sage, verbena, pepper mint and juniper are commonly used.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a list of our top favourite products, a good start for you to try:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n
