Prepare baking soda: Pour 1/2 cup of baking soda into the bowl or container. Baking soda is a natural odor killer and helps absorb unpleasant odors.
Add Essential Oil: Add a few drops of your favorite essential oil to the baking soda. The choice of oil depends on your personal taste. Lavender provides relaxation, lemon gives freshness, and peppermint can be invigorating.
Mix well: Gently stir the essential oil into the baking soda until well distributed. The baking soda absorbs the scent of the oil and gradually releases it.
Place the bowl in the bathroom: Place the bowl or container in your bathroom in a well-ventilated area. Ideally, you should place the bowl near the ventilation system or ventilation windows.
Renew the scent: After about a week, the scent will wear off. You can simply add a few more drops of essential oil to freshen the scent. The baking soda can be used for several weeks before it needs to be replaced.
Why does this work?
The baking soda helps absorb unpleasant odors while the essential oil spreads a pleasant scent. Together they create a natural and long-lasting scent refreshment in your bathroom, without harmful chemicals or artificial air fresheners.
Additional tips:
Experiment with different essential oils to find your favorite scent.
You can also use this easy DIY fragrance in other rooms of your house, like the bedroom or closet.
Make sure the bowl is out of the reach of children and pets.
With this simple trick, you can keep your bathroom smelling for a week without resorting to expensive commercial air fresheners. Your guests will surely want to know the secret when they enter your scented bathroom!
