HomeStyle: Common scents

If you hear the words “home fragrance” and you’re still thinking about lighting a candle or putting out a bowl of potpourri, think again, writes Helaine Williams in HomeStyle.

The home fragrance industry has blossomed, so to speak, and those products now have company. In addition to potpourri, refresher oils and decorative scented candles come room sprays, reed diffusers (reed sticks that wick fragrance from inside bottles and release it into the air), wax melts (scented wax cubes that are melted in warming containers) and more.

Overall the home fragrance industry has grown by $5.5 billion according to the most recent statistics, see Saturday’s Arkansas Democrat-Gazette for more.
