Home Fragrance Layering Guide
LITTLE BROWN GOOSE FREE GUIDE
The Home Fragrance Layering Guide
A simple room-by-room way to choose the right fragrance format and layer scent without making your home feel overpowering.
1. Pick the job first
The easiest way to choose a home-fragrance product is to decide whether you want an instant refresh, continuous fragrance or a cosy fragrance ritual.
Room Spray — quick fragrance refresh
Use a Room Spray when you want an immediate burst of fragrance in a room. Spray lightly and follow the current product directions. Patch test fabrics first and avoid delicate, polished, painted, leather, timber, electrical and floor surfaces.
Reed Diffuser — continuous, flame-free fragrance
A Reed Diffuser suits spaces where you want fragrance to sit quietly in the background. Keep it upright on a stable surface and away from children, pets and delicate finishes. Follow the current product directions when turning or replacing reeds.
Soy Candle — fragrance and candlelight
A candle works well for evenings, entertaining and slower moments at home. Always follow the candle label and normal candle-safety instructions, and never leave a burning candle unattended.
Soy Wax Melts — fragrance through a suitable warmer
Wax melts are a flexible choice when you enjoy changing fragrances. Use them only in a suitable tealight or electric wax warmer and follow the warmer manufacturer's instructions.
Fragrance Oil — a few drops for compatible fragrance uses
Fragrance Oils can be used for compatible home-fragrance applications according to the product directions and the instructions for your equipment. Start with a small amount and add more only if needed.
2. Layer without overdoing it
Layering works best when one product provides the background fragrance and a second is used only when you want an extra lift.
Entry + hallway
Try a Reed Diffuser as the everyday base, then use Room Spray shortly before guests arrive if you want a quick refresh.
Living room
Use a Reed Diffuser for day-to-day fragrance, then add a candle or wax melts in the evening when you want a more intentional scent moment.
Bedroom
A lightly scented Reed Diffuser can provide a simple background fragrance. Use Room Spray only when you want a quick refresh and follow the product directions.
Bathroom
A Reed Diffuser can provide steady fragrance, with Room Spray available for an occasional top-up.
Home office
Choose either a Reed Diffuser for passive fragrance or wax melts when you prefer a more deliberate fragrance ritual.
3. Create your home scent map
Keeping nearby rooms in related scent families can help your home feel more considered, even when you use different fragrance formats.

Start slowly
Begin with the room you use most, choose one fragrance format and live with it for a few days before adding another. The directions and safety information on the current Little Brown Goose product page should always take priority over this guide.
