Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between ambient scenting and an air freshener?

The difference is the difference between a designed interior and a coat of paint. Ambient scenting is precision-controlled, brand-aligned, IFRA/RIFM certified and consistent. A generic air freshener is uncontrolled, generic, of unknown composition and variable in output. In a premium US commercial environment where every brand touchpoint is carefully designed, using a generic air freshener communicates a quality inconsistency that undermines the total brand experience.

How do I choose the right fragrance for my US business?

Every Scent Swirl subscription includes a fragrance consultation. We evaluate your brand brief, space type, target audience and operating environment to recommend two to three shortlisted fragrances before you commit. Contact us to start.
