YELLOWSTONE

Keeping things Stateside, if sweet fruity or floral scents aren’t for you, this sophisticated, earthy fragrance inspired by the volcanic landscape of Yellowstone Park should suit you down to the ground. Think lemon verbena, eucalyptus, sagebrush, earth orris and oakmoss – I’m picking up the fragrance oil and popping it in every oil burner I own.

POSITANO

You can’t beat Italy for basil, tomatoes and limoncello – which is exactly why owner and expert nose Sasha blended those notes into her Amalfi Coast-inspired fragrance, along with mint leaves, bergamot, lemon and pomelo. The chic green and pink pillar scented candles in Positano are the perfect addition to your al fresco dining set up – now you just need the Mediterranean breeze.

KAIRKOURA

Okay, so a waterfall hike in fern-filled New Zealand woodland might be slightly out of reach for this year’s summer hols, but at least you can recreate the vibe. Pop this reed diffuser scented with rock daisies, lavender, chamomile, green ferns and marine wood accords into your bathroom, run a shower and feel the spray on your face… you’re basically there.

TREBARWITH STRAND

No time to burn a scented candle? Channel the Cornish coast in a jiffy with this room spray, blended with notes of English lavender, sweet basil, geranium and wildflowers, all with a clean cotton base and a hint of warming vanilla. The amber glass bottle is more chic than your standard Airwick, and you can even send it back to LORDS for a refill when it’s spritzed its last.

MONTEVERDE

I love a good tapered candle, and these lightly-scented LORDS ones are just the ticket for zhushing a dining table. They’re available in limited edition scent Pengelli Forest (pink and white), Oxfordshire (pink and green), or my choice, Monteverde (green and white), which gives jungle vibes with notes of rain-drenched leaves, tropical orchid, ylang-ylang and tuberose, and deep patchouli.

SAN IGNACIO LAGOON

Not your grandma’s drawer sachet, these cute pink velvet bags can be popped everywhere from your wardrobe to your car or gym bag – even on top of your radiator to help the scent to diffuse. I’m filling mine with San Ignacio Lagoon – a Californian-inspired blend with notes of sea salt, pink peppercorn, and cactus flower – and throwing one into every bedroom of the house (maybe two for my son’s).

OXFORDSHIRE

Of course, once the holiday’s over you have to come home – but that’s no hardship when it smells this good. Inspired by the scents of Sasha’s own Wallingford garden, Oxfordshire is a sweet floral with notes of green blackcurrant bud, rose geranium, wildflowers and sweetpea with a satisfying musk and moss base. There’s no place like home, after all.
