Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve loved perfume. From the first bottle of Tommy Girl I pulled out of my Christmas stocking as a pre-teen to the splurge-worthy bottle of Anine Bing’s Pure Noir I spoiled myself with at the beginning of this year, fragrance has long been a love of mine. This is also true of home fragrances. To me, there’s nothing better than a home that smells good, so I work hard to keep my apartment clean and smelling fresh. Research has shown that there’s an intrinsic relationship between scent and emotion, so it’s not surprising to hear that a good-smelling home equals a happy home. But I don’t just do this for myself — I do it for my guests, too. When I have people over, I want them the enter a space that feels clean, warm, and inviting. My secret? P.F. Candle Co’s Amber & Moss Room & Linen Spray. And ever since I’ve been using it, my friends can’t stop asking me about it.

I first discovered this room spray while picking up some Christmas gifts at Urban Outfitters (there’s a great line of T-Shirts that celebrates and supports America’s National Parks there so I always pick up a couple for my dad.) While looking to fulfill the minimum shipping requirement, I browsed the home section for something small for myself. It was there that I came across a gorgeous line of room sprays packaged in eye-catching amber bottles. I took a look at the scent notes and saw that the Amber & Moss option featured a blend of moss, lavender, sage, lavandin, orange, amber, and musk — aka my dream notes. I crossed my fingers, added to cart, and hoped for the best.

Now I’ll be honest, when the package arrived I had forgotten that I bought the room spray. But as I unboxed it and spritzed that first spray, my eyes widened and I audibly said, “Oh. My. God. This is it.” Then and there I knew I had found my home scent. It quickly became my signature scent and began eliciting comments from friends and family the moment they stepped foot into my apartment. From the generic, “Ooh, what is that smell?” to the “Okay, what candle are you burning because I need it,” I was continually surprised at how much others liked this scent (so much so that I began gifting it!) What can I say, when it’s good, it’s good, folks.

P.F. Candle Co’s Amber & Moss Room & Linen Spray comes in at $18. While pricier than your average supermarket room spray, this bad boy is potent so a little goes a long way — it took me over a year to finish a bottle! Oh, and if you like things like candles, reed diffusers, and body washes more, you can pick those up in this scent, too. But if you’re a fragrance junkie like me, treat your home to its own “bottle of perfume” — you both deserve it.

How To Make Your Home Smell Amazing | One Good Thing

Welcome back to One Good Thing @ Home! This week I take a little detour back into my kitchen to cook up some all natural ingredients that will make you house smell lovely and get rid of old, musty smells from cooking, kids, dirty clothes, you name it. It’s getting REALLY SIMPLE this week, which I love, but I hope there’s enough “meat on the bone” for you rabid DIYers who like to fill the comments with all sorts of good old fashioned feedback. Bring it on.

This week I feature two simple approaches:

1. Throwing used lemon rinds into a pot and letting them simmer on the stove during the day. Lemon oil is STRONG and it will fill your house.
2. A mixture of eucalyptus, lavender and lemon myrtle (but you could pull many things from the herb/flower department or your garden) that you boil down and throw into a spray bottle for ongoing use. EASY and real nice.

So, give it a try and let me know what you think. ALSO I want you to know you can email me directly if you have EVEN BETTER IDEAS than my little brain and Hand’s BIG BRAIN can come up with. We’re into feedback and I’d love to throw some of you some props from my house. Just send them to askmaxwell@cubbyathome.com (I’m using my Cubby address to make sure I see them). Thanks in advance!

Best, M
