From a Desk Job to Aromatherapy?
Before making our first product we had a dream and we were picturing this: You step into your home after a long day at the office, tired and wet from the Dutch rain and instantly, you’re greeted by a ray of sunshine with the refreshing aroma of blooming flowers, the comforting and sweet scent of tangerines and vanilla, or the invigorating fragrance of a bergamot and patchouli essential oils for home. These delightful natural products create a welcoming ambiance in your home. They are well known and used often. What we aimed is to create an aromatherapy natural product that brings tranquility and bliss and thats our Aroma Blocks with different blends of essential oils.
We wanted a natural, chemical free, long term use, no burn time kind of product. So we had to learn how to do all that. After a year of exploring and learning on what are quality essential oils and how we can create a simple, elegant and effective product that can transform your living space into an aromatherapy sanctuary of serenity.

The Different Natural Products for Home Aromatherapy
It all begins with nature. Imagine strolling through a garden, surrounded by vibrant blooms and lush grass. For me, that is my grandmothers garden in a mountain village in Bulgaria with the sun shinning and each flower around has a unique fragrance, enticing your senses and uplifting your spirits. Now, imagine capturing the essence of this botanical paradise in a tiny bottle of essential oils that can allow you to have these scents any time at home. Essential oils have been present in human life from Ancient Egypt and Greece. They were used in all kinds of sacred rituals and healing purposes as even in those day people have seen how powerful nature can be.
Today home scents for aromatherapy come in many shapes and forms. A few we enjoyed over the years are essential oil diffusers for the living room. Fragrance candles with a long burn time and in these heavenly aromas with a wooden wick! Everything with essential oils like bath bombs and their shower steamers, incense sticks, room spray fresheners you think of it it, we have probably tried it all. It might feels confusing but the abundance of options is also the magic of aromatherapy and natural home products.
As popularity that would be candles. Everybody has candles at home in some form. We as well, however over the years, I have had some bad experiences with burn time or smell from some.
Favourite ones are fire free artisan-crafted fragrance blocks, which is essentially the product we created.
The Ingredients of Tranquility
Soy Wax
Derived from renewable soybean oil, soy wax serves as the eco-friendly foundation of natural home scents. It is the most eco friendly soy wax available on the market. If you see products with bees wax please do yourself and nature a favour and stay away. We won’t go into details here however if you want to learn more on wax, check Peta’s article.
Essential Oils
Pure and potent essential oils are carefully selected for their therapeutic properties and aromatic richness, adding depth and complexity to each fragrance. Be careful with your choice of a brand. Check for labels that state ‘pure’ ‘organic’ ‘therapeutic grade’. Don’t buy fragrance oils as they don’t really have the therapeutical qualities of genuine essential oils. Price should be an indicator too, if its too low maybe the quality is compromised. Research first! A great start would be our post on essential oils uses at home.
Dried Flowers
Handpicked from nature’s tapestry, dried flowers impart visual beauty and subtle botanical notes to the scented blocks, elevating the sensory experience. We prefer having dried flowers at home as it minimises our impact on nature. All in for long use of preserved flowers.

Why Choose Natural Home Scents
Story: The Gift of Serenity
Imagine receiving a beautifully wrapped package, adorned with a delicate ribbon and a handwritten note. As you open it, you’re greeted by the enchanting aroma of lavender and bergamot that fill your heart with warmth and gratitude. This is the gift of serenity—a token of love and thoughtfulness that transcends materiality.
Benefits of natural home aromatherapy blocks
They have to offer a bunch of benefits, including:
#1 Environmental sustainability: Soy wax is renewable and biodegradable, making it a eco-friendly choice for conscious consumers. Small businesses typically produce goods in smaller batches, reducing the risk of overproduction and waste, which is a common issue with mass production in large companies.
#2 Therapeutic properties: Pure essential oils are most loved for their mood-enhancing properties, promoting relaxation and well-being. It’s essential to continue using the gifts from nature.
#3 Unique gift options: With their aromatic allure, they make for unforgettable gifts that delight the senses and nourish the soul.
