Room Sprays 101: How I Use Them in My Home Every Day

7 Creative Ways to Use Room Sprays in Your Home (and Beyond!)

I love the flexibility of room sprays. Whether you're looking for a light refresh or a bold burst of fragrance, our Alora Ambiance room sprays let you completely customize your scent experience.

They’re a perfect way to:

• Mask unpleasant odors

• Add an extra layer of fragrance to spaces already scented with diffusers or candles

• Or even wear your favorite Alora scent as a personal fragrance

If there’s one thing I’ve learned in over 20 years of creating luxury home fragrances, it’s that scent is deeply personal. We all have preferences—not just for the types of fragrances we love, but for how and where we like to use them.

Today, I’m sharing seven of my favorite ways to use room sprays in hopes of giving you fresh ideas for incorporating them into your daily life.

1. Just Before Guests Arrive

Whether it’s family, friends, or a last-minute repair visit, I love giving the entryway a spritz of a gender-neutral scent like Verde. It’s the perfect way to greet guests with a warm, inviting atmosphere from the moment they walk in.

2. In the Powder Room

Our most-used room spray in the house lives here! I keep it on a vintage built-in glass shelf and rotate between Agrume and Arancia, two of my favorite clean citrus scents.

3. In the Kitchen After Cooking

From strong spices to lingering smells like hard-boiled eggs or burnt toast, a quick spritz of a richer scent like Vaniglia or Toscana can help reset the air in seconds. These cozy fragrances are wonderful at neutralizing odors while leaving something beautiful behind.

4. In the Car

Yes—room sprays work in the car, too! I keep a bottle in the console, especially for post-dog park drives or after-school carpools. A fresh citrus like Agrume is my go-to for a quick refresh.

5. As a Personal Fragrance

I’ve loved wearing our scents for years. I used to dip a diffuser reed into Arancia and dab it on my wrists. Now? I just give myself a spritz! Our floral and citrus scents like Arancia, Rosa, or Isola make beautiful, subtle perfumes.

6. Layered Over Diffusers and Candles

Room sprays are a great way to add dimension to your home fragrance. Right now, I have a Verde diffuser in our family bathroom and love topping it off with a quick spritz of Arancia for a burst of springy freshness.

7. On Bed Linens and Sheets

This is one of my favorite daily rituals. A light spritz in the morning leaves just the right hint of scent by bedtime. My go-to is Bimbi—the lavender and chamomile notes are calming and soft, perfect for winding down.

Whether you spritz once a day or a few times throughout, our room sprays are designed to last for months and bring joy with every use.
