Create A Passionate Night With Scented Candles

By Dana Burnett

Are you wanting some sensual and romantic ways to spice up your love life? Why not use scented candles to create a romantic atmosphere?

The craft of aromatherapy has long been put into use to improve moods, help to increase vitality, or encourage peacefulness. The experience of smell has powerful associative capabilities. A minor sniff of a specific fragrance could make us think about home, summers on a pond, or frosty autumn afternoons. Each scent brings with it its own sentiments and images in our imagination, such as lavender or chamomile for sleep and relaxation. This same notion is applicable to your love life.

To create a romantic night, place scented candles around the bedroom in a variety of areas. The plan is to bring about a tender shining light that will soften the look of your physical imperfections while letting your companion know right away that they are in for something exceptional!

Need help selecting that correct scent? You could opt for basic vanilla, but why not check out something especially fashioned for inducing that old romantic sentiment?

Cinnamon or Pumpkin Pie: The old adage is correct. The way to a man's heart is through his stomach and smells that remind him of these baked items will immediately put him in the mood for love. These spicy smells are the best method to liven up your love life!

Jasmine: This woodsy flower scent might appear slightly old fashioned but it is a feminine smell that brings to the surface the loving side of even the most manly guy. And what lady would not appreciate a little old fashioned romance?

Ylang Ylang: This scent has long been employed as an aphrodisiac because of its soothing and mood raising benefits. A great option if your man can't seem to unwind after a tough day at the office. This will have him thinking about anything but the paperwork waiting for him.

Oranges: The essential oils found in oranges were utilized by the people of Egypt as an aphrodisiac and there was no greater temptress than Cleopatra. Known for ages for its arousal potential, the aroma of oranges may be the most powerful of all the romantic scents. Use with caution! (Or wild abandon, the choice is yours.)

Juniper: This one comes from my own knowledge. Out of all the perfumes and body sprays that I have tried, this one had men stopping me in the street to compliment me on its scent (much to the displeasure of their dates!)

Shop for your scented candles meticulously, deciding on your favorite from the tips stated above. Use them to bring some extra romance to your date night and watch the sparks fly!
