The best scented candles for the office and remote work - how to choose the perfect scent for work?

Working in the office - both home and corporate - requires focus, calm and a good atmosphere. The right fragrance can help you build a space conducive to concentration, while adding coziness to the interior. Which scented candles to choose for work?

Fragrances that support concentration

For mental work, citrus notes (such as lemon, grapefruit, bergamot), mint, eucalyptus and rosemary will work well. These are scents that refresh the mind, improve memory and increase efficiency.

Candles with essential oils - natural support at work

Natural essential oils not only smell beautiful, but also affect the mood. Candles with mint, lavender or tea tree oils can support concentration while relieving stress.

Candles for stress reduction

Work, especially remote work, can be fraught with tension. Notes of lavender, sandalwood, vanilla or frankincense help to calm down and restore emotional balance.

Unscented candles - subtlety and aesthetics

If you work in a co-working space or are sensitive to smells - choose an unscented candle. Such an addition will give elegance to the interior, without distracting your senses.
