How to Make a Copycat renuzit Aromatherapy Air Freshener:

Place 1 Tablespoon of water beads into warm water.

Add essential oil and food coloring to the desired strength of scent and color.

Allow soaking. We soaked ours for two hours.

Place in a container with a vented lid.

As water beads dry out, add more water and essential oil.

Enjoy This homemade air freshener. It is an easy, all-natural way to add your favorite fragrance to your home’s air.

Helpful Aromatherapy Hints:

One 8-oz container of air freshener gel will scent an average-sized room. For larger rooms, use more than one jar.

Keep the aromatherapy air freshener away from direct sunlight.

Don’t place the finished air freshener directly beneath ceiling fans or in front of air vents, as this will evaporate the fragrance quickly

You can poke holes with a nail in a canning lid and use this as the vented top for your air freshener.

Take the Scent from that Luxury Hotel:

Common scents in luxury hotels to make your home smell amazing are:

sandalwood
vanilla
Cedar
lemon blossom
citrus
neroli
leather
white tea

You can add less common scents depending on your preference like:

lemon verbena
jasmine
coconut
patchouli
lavender

The Ritz Carlton uses Antica Farmacista, a luxury fragrance company, to craft a scent named after the Central Park South address that is delicate with notes of elderflower, mountain mint, and ripe strawberries.

Housekeepers use complementary scents like chamomile, lavender, and vanilla, or a mixture of different citrus oils.

A rosemary, lemon, and lavender blend also create a clean or soothing aroma, as does wild orange with peppermint.

Start small with just a few drops of essential at a time and work your way up to more.

What are Water Beads?

Aroma Beads are small clear plastic poly beads that absorb up to 30% of their weight in water and essential oil.

This fragrance can last up to six months, depending on the fragrance oil used, making it an easy and cleaner alternative to candles and chemical sprays.

Made of superabsorbent polymer chemicals, water beads are also known as jelly, hydro orbs, crystal soil, and gel beads.
