essential oils – The Interiors Addict

Sponsored by Air Wick

We’d all love our homes to smell gorgeous (and I’d go as far to say fragrance is an important final layer of an interior) but diffusers, burners and air fresheners haven’t always been known for their good looks! And, if like me, you won’t have anything out on show unless it looks the part, this can mean they don’t have a place in your home. Oil burners and scented candles on the other hand, often look stylish, but aren’t the most practical option, especially with kids.

Air freshener never looked so good, right?!

Enter the new Air Wick Essential Mist, with its smart, compact, black design, which will sit unobtrusively on your shelf or coffee table. Good looks: tick! It diffuses fragrance infused with essential oils into the air for a few seconds automatically over an eight-hour period (you can choose one of three intensity levels) so it’s not wasted overnight. It’s pretty cool to watch. Check out the video below.

The unique technology produces a mist, carrying the scent through the air in a gentler way than other air fresheners. I’m loving waking up and walking into a room that smells so lovely and fresh without having to do anything! This has to be the easiest way to have fragrance infused with essential oils in your home all the time.

To get going, you simply open the unit, click in the bottle of fragrance, add three AA batteries, put the lid on and you’re good to go for up to 45 days. There are four fragrances to choose from; my favourite Peony & Jasmine, plus Fresh Water Breeze, Mandarin & Sweet Orange and Cinnamon & Crisp Apple (sounds perfect for the autumn months ahead!). Refills are available from Coles and Woolworths for just $8.

Unlike other diffusers, you don’t need to add water, which means no chance of spillage, plus: lazy! And because there are no cords, you can move it around the house with ease; in my case, to wherever the latest noxious nappy change has occurred, for example!

The Air Wick Essential Mist is half price at Woolworths until 13 March, saving you $15! Shop online.

Being a self confessed neat freak, I have more than a passing interest in cleaning products. I like them to smell divine and not be full of chemical nasties, as well as be effective. I also want them to look good if I leave them out, however ridiculous and shallow that may seem! I don’t ask much, do I?

I have a couple of existing favourites, those being Method and Murchison-Hume, but I’m now adding the new Bondi Wash range to the list, after giving them a try for myself. There’s a lot more to like than their good looks (and smells), let me tell you. These products combine the antibacterial power and fragrance of unique Australian bush oils with a luxurious mix of other essential oils and natural ingredients to create truly distinctive products. They’re good for you, the planet and your home.
