Best of all, each is available from BluntEffects® in long-lasting room freshener sprays made with premium oil-based blends. Let’s dive in and find which scent speaks to you.

1. Ocean Breeze

Ocean Breeze is the scent equivalent of flinging open your windows on the first warm day of the year. This crisp, airy, and invigorating fragrance captures the essence of saltwater air, sun-kissed shores, and a gentle wind drifting off the water. It’s transportive, making it a great pick when you need a mental reset without stepping outside.

Best suited for spring and summer, Ocean Breeze gives what your space craves most: freshness and light. It’s the perfect complement to sunny days, airy curtains, and the sound of birds outside.

2. Fresh Linen

Few things rival the comfort of clean sheets, and the Fresh Linen air freshener channels that exact feeling. It’s clean but cozy, evoking the warmth of home and the sense of order. There’s a soft, powdery note that brings calm without being too perfume-heavy.

Fresh Linen works year-round, but it especially shines in spring and early summer. Use it to keep your space smelling like an inviting, just-folded stack of laundry, even when real life is anything but tidy.

3. Jasmine

Jasmine is a timeless floral scent that blends delicacy with a subtle sense of hypnotism. Its sweet, romantic aroma fills the room with a calm, luxurious vibe that lingers in the background, offering a light, welcoming atmosphere. When used in a concentrated room spray, jasmine works wonders in uplifting your mood while maintaining an airy, relaxed feel.

It’s perfect for spring and early summer, as jasmine pairs beautifully with the natural bloom of florals. Enhance the experience with soft lighting or the gentle breeze of open windows for a truly refreshing environment.

4. Lavender

Lavender may be one of the most popular and comforting scents available, and for good reason. It combines floral sweetness with a slightly herbal, almost minty undertone, adding complexity. The scent tends to mellow the energy of a room, making it a go-to for evenings or wind-down routines.

Exceptional for transitional seasons like spring and fall, lavender resets your home’s vibe as the weather changes. During the cooler months, it pairs beautifully with candles and your beloved textiles to create a warm and inviting atmosphere.

5. Eucalyptus Spearmint

Eucalyptus Spearmint wakes up the senses in the best way. There’s a spa-like clarity to this combination, with eucalyptus delivering that clean, mentholated aroma and spearmint offering a cool, crisp sweetness. Despite its refreshing bite, the overall scent has a soothing rhythm to it.

A favorite in fall and winter, Eucalyptus Spearmint is perfect for cool air and shorter days. It’s great for freshening up your space after a long shift or setting the tone for focused mornings.

6. Vanilla Cream

Vanilla Cream is a classic scent that evokes a desire to curl up in a cozy chair and a plush blanket. It has a creamy, rich note with just enough sweetness to fill your space without overwhelming it. Vanilla is one of those scents that feels universally soothing, evoking memories of freshly baked treats or a cup of tea by the fire.

This sugary scent is best for fall and winter, when you want your space to feel extra inviting. It complements chilly evenings and festive gatherings, pairing perfectly with cinnamon, caramel, or other holiday-inspired scents.

7. Coconut

Coconut brings a tropical flair to any space, even if you’re far from the beach. It’s creamy and smooth, with a hint of sweetness that isn’t overpowering. Whether you’re looking to add a bit of vacation vibes to your home or want something welcoming, coconut delivers in spades.

Coconut works for those long, sunny afternoons when you want a hint of escape. It pairs splendidly with tropical fruits like pineapple or citrus for an energizing, vacation-like atmosphere.

8. Sandalwood Vanilla

Sandalwood Vanilla is the scent of deep relaxation. The velvety vanilla softens the earthy richness of sandalwood, creating a grounded yet calming mood. This scent isn’t overly sweet but has a deep, tender base that feels cozy and refined. It’s ideal for those who appreciate a woodsy yet smooth fragrance.

This blend of sandalwood and vanilla is perfect for fall and winter, when you’re craving warmth and comfort. It creates a cozy, intimate ambience in the colder months, making it ideal for evenings at home or as an after-dinner scent.

9. Patchouli Amber

Patchouli Amber blends two lush, lively notes that create an intriguing and inviting atmosphere. The smooth, golden vibrancy of amber tempers the depth of the patchouli. Together, they make a scent that’s sophisticated yet laid-back with an earthy air that calms and grounds.

Patchouli Amber is ideal for fall and winter when you want to create a relaxed, alluring environment. It pairs well with other warm scents, such as cinnamon or clove, making it perfect for chilly evenings or creating a calming, comfortable space after a long day.

10. Oakmoss & Amber

Oakmoss & Amber feels like a walk through a serene forest, with deep, natural undertones balanced by the tenderness of amber. It’s a scent that’s both fresh and woody, offering a grounding fragrance that doesn’t overwhelm the senses and creates a feeling of serenity. This is an organic scent that makes a room feel more connected to the outdoors.

Oakmoss & Amber works best when the air is crisp and the leaves turn. It pairs well with other woodsy fragrances or autumn-inspired scents, producing a balanced atmosphere.
