5 Reasons Why I Finally Stopped Using Scented Candles... And You Should Too

Shop Aura House

Over the past few months, I’ve made a concerted effort to ‘clean up’ my home. I’m talking eco-friendly laundry detergent, fresh dog food, non-toxic cookware – the works. I still wanted my space to smell ah-mazing, though, so I snagged some soy-blend candles and patted myself on the back. As it turns out, these ‘cleaner’ candles aren’t exactly clean (we’ll get into paraffin wax below), but Aura House’s cold air diffuser is. It’s a safer scent solution, it’s incredibly potent, and its blends smell delicious: A dream! Come true! Here’s why I’m head over heels…

Farewell, Harmful Chemicals

I was pretty devastated to discover the health risks associated with some of my favorite candles. Many are made with paraffin wax, which releases harmful chemicals – that have been associated with things like respiratory issues and allergies – into the air. Aura House was created as a cleaner and safer solution. All of its fragrances are formulated under Sephora Clean guidelines, meaning they’re safe for kids and pets. Ahhhhhh.

Let’s  Hear It For Cold-Air Diffusion

Unlike traditional diffusers that use heat and water, Aura House employs cold-air diffusion technology. In short, it ensures that scents maintain their original form and integrity, offering a consistently longer-lasting fragrance experience. Say goodbye to quickly fading scents and hello to a mold-free, clean aroma.

Set It and Forget It

One of my favorite aspects of this diffuser is that while it adds a touch of je ne sais quoi to my space, I don’t have to babysit it. It can be left running all day with no fire risk. It's the low-maintenance scent solution I never knew I needed.

Elegance in Every Kit

When my Aura House Starter Kit arrived, I was blown away. The Scent Diffuser has that aspirational aesthetic (you know the one), and the Grounding and Manifest fragrance oils are both beautiful in appearance and scent. While I thought this may be a complicated system to use, it’s actually a breeze: no messy water pours or essential oil droplet counting – just a twist, press, and enjoy.

Curated Collections for Every Mood

Scent is a powerful tool, and Aura House knows that. With three meticulously curated collections – Wellness, Mémoire, and Away – Aura House offers a fragrance for every mood and occasion. Plus, did I mention that each was developed by an award-winning perfumer? I’m obsessed…and with good reason!
