Being at home 24/7 during the coronavirus quarantine means doing a lot of nesting — and basking in the shared smells of family members and roommates. Burning fragrant candles and strategically placing room diffusers can go a long way toward defining spaces (and saving your sanity).
Here are our scent picks for every room, nook or cranny you’re currently calling home.
Foyer
Welcome yourself home from essential grocery-gathering runs with a refreshing bouquet of lilac, hyacinth and lychee. Otherland will donate 10 percent of every candle sale to Food Bank for New York City.

When you’re stuck in a small space, visual escapes are just as important as the aromatic kind. So sit back, soak in the tub and stare at a dreamy beach-printed candle that smells of ocean breezes, sand lilies and summer orchids.

Whether mom is staying to help with the kids or you’ve converted a few square inches of floor into a “second bedroom” to hide in, a proper candle in your guest space is essential for keeping things calm (lavender) and peaceful (mimosa). Bonus? The opaque glass jar converts to a vase.
