What the sniff is that scent?
So, I read this article a few days ago in which I found out some cool facts about scent and what it can do for you! I want to be happy and healthy, so I made a choice of trying a few of these happy sniffles out!
The Test! Let's see what happens!
Orange, grapefruit and lemon give you energy. We usually associate citrus with fresh and clean. That makes you feel better, fitter and more confident!
Okay! Check, check and check! A little lemon here, a juicy grapefruit there and six oranges under there!
The smell of Vanilla makes you feel cherished and positive. Not surprising that the smell is processed in, for example, baby food. Vanilla is also often used in the waiting rooms because the smell also reduces aggressive feelings and feelings of stress.
Check! Let's put a few of these marvelous sticks down here and there and a few more just to be sure!
Coffee makes you more alert because of the caffeine, but you do not have to drink it. The smell of coffee also increases your concentration!
Right! ((Pours a bag of coffee beans down) Let's mix them a little bit! Yes!! Perfection! Wait..... Yes... Now this looks amazing!
Nervous? Lavender has a temporary narcotic effect on the nervous system, which makes it easier to relax. Great for baths or in lotions, or in a scent bag between the sheets.
Because I don't have a scent bag I just got some from the garden! They look so cute and fluffy! I love purple! Lets put them here! Oh and few more there as well! Wow!
The smell of freshly baked bread can make us friendlier and more attentive, according to a study that appeared in the Journal of social psychology by French researchers.
Hmmm.....I am hungry! BUT, let's put these slices down and see what happens! ( Steals one slice and noms it) Maybe... Yes... One more bread and everything is perfect!
Results!
While I looked forward to waking up feeling fresh and clean, I woke up on the couch all wrinkled and messed up! My bed was a Walhalla of scents and a masterpiece of pure art! However, it appeared that it's rather hard to sleep on a piece of art like this! The lemons, oranges, and grapefruits kept rolling against my face, and the result of that is two black eyes and a bruised nose! For some reason, the Vanilla kept poking me at the weirdest places, and the coffee beans ended up everywhere but where they should! Because of the FRESH lavender, I also added some extra BUGS to my bed! I am a Snek and I am NOT afraid of bugs but the itching... Oh the itching! The bread started to crumble and..... I dunno... While the scent was making me more hungry than friendly I believe bread is the best thing ever!
Conclusion!
When you put all these things in your bed you will end up sleeping on the couch! You will look like a hungry idiot with bloodshed eyes! Your hair will smell fresh but will stand up straight! Your body will be bruised, and you will walk like a 99-year-old human being! The bed, however, will look like a piece of art and smell like a fresh ocean! The bugs will wake up happy and full of energy to bug you again the coming night! The bed looks calm and friendly while you see the birds from the whole neighborhood pecking at the bread because you totally forgot to close the window!
Excuse me, while I go iron my face!
