The Effects Of A Pleasant Fragrance On Human Emotions And Feelings

April 30, 2023
Pura Scent

Pleasant fragrances have the ability to evoke positive emotions and feelings in humans. The sense of smell is closely linked to the brain's limbic system, which controls emotions and memories. Therefore, the right fragrance in the right setting can create a sense of comfort, relaxation, and joy.

 

One of the primary effects of a pleasant fragrance is its ability to create a welcoming atmosphere. A pleasant scent can help people feel more at ease and comfortable, particularly in public spaces where they may be feeling stressed or anxious. This creates a more inviting environment and can enhance social interactions, making it easier for people to engage with one another.

 

Pleasant fragrances can also have a calming effect on people. Certain scents, such as lavender, have been shown to reduce anxiety and promote relaxation. When used in a common area, such as a waiting room or a meeting area, these scents can help to reduce stress and promote a more peaceful environment. Pleasant fragrances can also trigger memories and associations that contribute to a sense of well-being. Scents can evoke positive memories of childhood or special occasions, creating a sense of comfort and security. These associations can help to create a more enjoyable and satisfying experience and people will tend to linger longer in areas where there is a pleasant smell.

 

In addition to these effects, pleasant fragrances can also enhance memory. Certain scents, such as rosemary, have been shown to improve memory and cognitive performance. When used in a common area, such as a library or workspace, these scents can help to promote mental clarity and enhance memory. Therefore, scenting a work area could lead to increased productivity and better overall outcomes for a business.

 

To harness the many positive outcomes that a scent may provide to your establishment, talk to us at PuraAir for professional scenting solutions utilising PuraScent Fragrance diffusers and Deodorising Systems that can be connected directly into your air conditioning system or fresh air supply in common areas. You can also visit our online shop for a selection of fragrances along with our popular cold diffusion system to use in your home.

Happy New Year from PuraAir: Preparing for Summer Odour Control Challenges

January 7, 2026
As we welcome the New Year, the team at PuraAir would like to extend our warmest wishes to all our valued clients and partners. The start of the year also marks the peak of the summer season, a time when warmer temperatures, increased building occupancy, and higher waste volumes can create unique challenges for odour control and hygiene management. Summer heat accelerates the breakdown of waste, leading to stronger and more persistent odours. It also creates ideal conditions for flies and other pests, particularly in bin rooms, waste chutes, loading docks, and garbage storage areas. Without effective odour control solutions in place, these issues can quickly impact the comfort, health, and overall experience of residents, staff, and visitors. In high-rise residential buildings, these challenges are often intensified during the holiday period. With more people spending time at home, garbage volumes naturally increase, placing additional strain on waste management systems. Communal areas such as lift lobbies, corridors, and waste rooms can be especially affected if odours are not properly managed, leading to resident complaints and unnecessary disruption. This makes the New Year an ideal time to review your odour control and scenting requirements. Ensuring that existing systems are functioning optimally, and that solutions are appropriately scaled for summer conditions, can help prevent issues before they arise. Proactive odour management not only improves air quality but also supports hygiene standards, reduces pest activity, and helps maintain a pleasant living and working environment. At PuraAir, we work closely with building managers, facility teams, and property owners to deliver tailored odour control and scenting solutions that address seasonal demands. From waste room and garbage chute treatment to fly control and ambient scenting in shared spaces, our solutions are designed to perform when conditions are at their most challenging. Start the year with confidence. We encourage you to take this opportunity to assess your current odour control measures and ensure they are ready for the months ahead. Contact Rob Clarke from PuraAir on 1300 972 736 or 0147 714 268 today to schedule a summer readiness review or to discuss tailored solutions for your building. A proactive approach now can help prevent issues later and ensure your spaces remain fresh, hygienic, and welcoming throughout summer and beyond. Browse through our website for more information. We wish you a safe, successful, and refreshing New Year and look forward to supporting you throughout 2026.
