Fragrance Combining

Craft your unique and seasonal home fragrance. We have put together various suggestions in another post, however when selecting fragrance, be bold and creative; all the fragrances are elegant, sophisticated and able to be elevated. For example

Combine two complementary fragrance oils (e.g., Bergamot + Marine Crystal) in separate reeds or alternate hours for a balanced scent journey. Candle + Oil Duo: Light a Jasmine candle for a soft glow, then run Patchouli oil in your electric diffuser to layer richness. Rotate Based on Mood: Enjoy lighter, fresher blends like Fig + Neroli earlier in the day; switch to Smokier, dusk-appropriate combinations like Clove + Amber in the evening. Personalise: Geodesis scents are designed to evoke travel memories, inviting creative combinations for your own bespoke ambiance. Do let us know what you choose and favourite combination(s).
