Types of home fragrance
Scented candles
Our candles do more than provide a cosy glow. Choose light and citrusy or warm and woody fragrances to set the mood instantly. Clean, sleek jars and multiple sizes make our candles as attractive as they are aromatic.
Reed diffusers
Ideal for low‑maintenance fragrance. Reed diffusers continuously scent the air without flames or electricity, so they’re safe and easy to use. With refill options available, you can keep them going for longer with less waste.
Room sprays
Freshness at a moment’s notice. A quick spritz helps eliminate kitchen odours or revive a living room before guests arrive.
Wax melts and burners
A flameless way to fill rooms with fragrance. Pair wax melts with a compatible burner for quick, even scent distribution.
Incense sticks and cones
Classic aromas for a calming ritual. Use in well‑ventilated areas and place on heat‑resistant holders.
Potpourri and scented sachets
Subtle scents for drawers, wardrobes and small spaces—perfect where candles or diffusers may not be suitable.
Seasonal scents
From winter spices to fresh florals, seasonal scents capture a moment in time. During festive periods, discover gift‑ready fragrances to spread cheer.
Benefits of home fragrance
- Set a mood: Invigorating citrus for mornings, soothing lavender at night—fragrance helps set the tone for your day.
- Welcome guests: A softly scented hallway or living room instantly feels inviting.
- Layered living: Combine products—like a candle on the table and a diffuser in the corner—for an immersive fragrance experience.
- Giftable charm: Stylish design and universal appeal make fragrance a thoughtful, budget‑friendly present.
How to choose the right scent
Start with the room’s purpose. For kitchens, try bright citrus or herbal notes to cut through cooking smells. Bedrooms benefit from soft florals or lavender to promote relaxation. Living rooms often suit warm woods, amber or vanilla for a cosy feel. Bathrooms feel fresh with marine, eucalyptus or mint. Consider olfactory families—citrus, floral, woody, oriental, fresh and herbal—and choose top, heart and base notes that match your taste and the season.
Care and safety tips
- Candles: Trim the wick to 5 mm before each burn to minimise soot and ensure an even melt pool. Place on a heat‑resistant surface and never leave unattended.
- Diffusers: Turn reeds every few days to refresh the fragrance. Keep away from direct sunlight to slow evaporation.
- Sprays: Store in a cool, dry place. A light mist is usually enough to refresh a room.
- Wax melts: Follow burner instructions and avoid overfilling. Allow the wax to cool fully before handling.
- Incense: Burn on appropriate holders and ventilate the space.
- Potpourri and sachets: Use in enclosed or smaller spaces for longer‑lasting scent; replace when the aroma fades.
- General: Keep fragrance products out of reach of children and pets. Store unused items in a shaded, dry area.
Freshen up your home

Shop online, explore different scents and find the perfect match for your space.

Do you offer gift sets or bundles?
Absolutely. Around festive seasons and key moments, you’ll find curated bundles and gift‑ready sets featuring our most‑loved fragrances—ideal for thoughtful, great‑value gifting.
How long do IKEA candles last?
Burn time depends on size and composition. Smaller candles typically last a few hours, while larger jars or multi‑wick candles can burn for dozens of hours. You’ll find estimated burn times on packaging and product pages.
Can I refill IKEA diffusers?
Yes. Most diffusers have refill packs, helping you extend their life without buying a whole new set—reducing waste and cost.
Which scents work best in different rooms?
For kitchens, try citrus or herbal notes. Bedrooms suit lavender, soft florals and gentle musks. Living rooms benefit from warm woods, amber or vanilla. Bathrooms feel clean with marine, eucalyptus or mint. Hallways and entryways do well with welcoming, balanced scents such as fresh florals or light woods.
How can I make fragrance last longer?
Layer products (e.g., diffuser plus candle), keep diffusers out of direct sun, trim candle wicks and close doors for targeted scenting. Rotate reeds and refresh sprays sparingly to avoid overpowering.
Is home fragrance safe around children and pets?
Use as directed and place items out of reach. Ventilate rooms, avoid unattended candles, and choose gentler fragrances if anyone is sensitive to strong scents.
