How to Make a Copycat renuzit Aromatherapy Air Freshener:

  1. Soak the Water Beads

    • Place 1 tablespoon of water beads into a bowl of warm water.
    • Allow the water beads to soak and expand for approximately two hours.
  2. Infuse with Aroma and Color

    • Once the water beads have expanded, it’s time to create your desired scent and color.
    • Add a few drops of essential oil(s) of your choice to the water beads. Adjust the quantity to achieve your preferred strength of scent.
    • If you wish to customize the color, add a drop or two of food coloring to the beads and stir gently until evenly distributed.
  3. Transfer to Vented Container

    • Carefully transfer the scented water beads into a clear jar with a vented lid. You can also create a vented lid using a canning lid with holes poked by a nail.
  4. Maintain Your Aromatherapy Air Freshener

Helpful Aromatherapy Hints:

  • For larger rooms, use more than one jar of air freshener gel to achieve the desired scent coverage.
  • Store the aromatherapy air freshener away from direct sunlight to maintain its potency.
  • Avoid placing the jar directly beneath ceiling fans or air vents to prevent rapid evaporation of the fragrance.

Luxurious Fragrance Inspiration:

Take inspiration from luxury hotels and their signature scents to create a captivating ambiance in your home.

Popular hotel scents include:

  • Sandalwood
  • Vanilla
  • Cedar
  • Lemon Blossom
  • Citrus
  • Neroli
  • Leather
  • White Tea

Uncommon Scents for Personalization:

Get creative and add unique scents that match your preferences, such as:

  • Lemon Verbena
  • Jasmine
  • Coconut
  • Patchouli
  • Lavender

The Ritz Carlton Signature Scent:

The Ritz Carlton is known for its signature scent crafted by Antica Farmacista. Try creating your version with notes of elderflower, mountain mint, and ripe strawberries for a delicate and refreshing aroma.

Housekeepers’ Favorites:

Housekeepers often use complementary scents like chamomile, lavender, and vanilla to create a welcoming and soothing environment. Additionally, they might mix different citrus oils for a fresh and invigorating aroma.

About Water Beads:

Water beads are small, clear, plastic poly beads that can absorb up to 30% of their weight in water and essential oil. This makes them a long-lasting and cleaner alternative to candles and chemical sprays.

Final Tip:

Start small when adding essential oils, and work your way up to achieve your desired fragrance intensity. Now, let your creativity flow and enjoy the rewarding experience of crafting your very own Aromatic Delights!
