There’s something magical about the power of scent. The right fragrance can transport you to another place, evoke deep emotions, and completely transform the atmosphere of a room. At Mrs. Frizz & Co., we believe that candles are more than just a way to light up a space—they’re a way to change how you feel in it.
The Science of Scent & Emotion
Our sense of smell is closely linked to the brain’s limbic system, which controls emotions and memories. That’s why certain smells can immediately bring a sense of calm, nostalgia, or even energy. The right candle scent can shift the mood of your home or workspace, creating an environment that feels more relaxing, focused, or comforting.
Let’s explore how you can use different scents to set the mood in any room—and which Mrs. Frizz & Co. candles are perfect for the job.
