Fragrance and Interiors: Create a Cosy Winter Haven with Scent

Our homes are our sanctuaries. They’re where we go to retreat, to spend time with loved ones or relax in peace, to switch off from the outside world. They’re sacred places that should feel calming, safe, full of personality and memories.

This is never more true than in the chilly winter months. As the coldest season draws in, we turn to comforting rituals and our homes become a warm cosy nest for us to escape to. One of the most transformative ways you can create this sense of tranquillity is through the power of scent.

At EPC, we’re passionate about how the right fragrance can create a welcoming environment and convey the unique personality of your space. After all, we play around with perfumery to craft our own signature fragrance… so why not treat our homes in the same bespoke way?

The Emotional Connection

Close your eyes and imagine all the scents of a peaceful home: fresh linen, baking bread, chopped herbs, a bouquet of flowers.

One of the reasons why fragrance is so powerful in our home spaces is because scent and memories are inextricably linked. Fragrance taps into our emotions, evoking and creating memories and bringing a sense of nostalgia. Specific aromas can bring a feeling of comfort while others evoke memories of special moments, adding a meaningful and personal layer to our interiors.

Your home is uniquely yours: it should feel personal to you.

Enhance your Interior Design

Just as colours, textures and lighting shape a space, so does scent.

A thoughtfully chosen fragrance enhances your interior design, creating harmony and influencing the room’s energy. Consider how a woody smoky scent can elevate a moody living room, or how a creamy floral fragrance can bring a light, delicate touch to a minimalist bedroom. Fragrance is an extension of design, shaping the ambiance and atmosphere that bring our spaces to life.

Create Your Palette

Play perfumer in your interior space. Curate the scents that follow you around your home, layering them together to craft a fragrance menu that’s distinctly yours.

  • For gathering spaces, layer cosy spicy notes or deliciously gourmand scents to create a warm, welcoming environment.
    Turn your bedroom into a calming sanctuary with grounding scents like cedarwood or patchouli.
    For your office or work space, opt for invigorating combinations like salty mineral Ambroxan or zings of ginger and turmeric to keep the mind focused.
    In your kitchen, balance natural food aromas with neutral fresh scents like clean soft moss, or lightly nutty aromas of green hazelnuts, almonds and sesame.

Introducing the Scented Candle Layering Collection by EPC

Our all-new Scented Candle Layering Collection invites you to experiment with scent in your home, just as you would with perfume.

Layering home fragrances offers a way to add depth and complexity to your home’s atmosphere, enabling you to create a unique scent profile for each room. It’s the perfect way to tailor your space’s fragrance to reflect your own personal tastes and seasonal themes. Imagine building a base note of earthy cedarwood, then adding a touch of nutty warmth or a hint of salty freshness for a multi-layered experience.

Our three new candles are designed to be used individually or layered in seven distinctive combinations that always work. The scent of each candle represents one part of the fragrance pyramid: top, mid and base.

Meet the new collection:

Cardamom Moss: top note, fresh scent.

A swirl of spices wrapped in salty wave of mineral mosses and Ambroxan.

Expect ginger, turmeric, cardamon, cinnamon, ambroxan and moss.

Tonka Sesame: mid note, mellow scent.

An utterly delectable combination of gourmand notes and woods; fused in perfect harmony.

Expect green hazelnuts, almonds, tonka beans, sesame, heliotrope, patchouli and cedarwood.

Cedarwood Absinth: base note, deep scent.

A rich leathery fragrance unashamedly herbaceous, sultry and powerful.

Expect wormwood, cypriol roots, Virginia and Atlas cedarwood, patchouli.

Each Layerable Candle has been crafted to blend seamlessly with the others, perfect for experimentation and personalisation. The beauty of layering lies in discovering the combination that feels just right for you and your home.
