The Danes coined the term hygge for this, a term that cannot be translated into a single word, but which suggests the feeling of comfort, of being comfortable and satisfied. It's about those little things like... warm light of a candle, a walk through the forest during autumn, a campfire in the mid-winter, the meal with the family which helps you relax, recharge your energy and smile, even at the end of a day that was not so good.
You can make a lot of small gestures that brings joy like: light a candle or a aromatherapy diffuser-it's one of the easiest ways to create a pleasant and comfortable environment at home. Surround yourself with a Scandinavian-style décor, listen to relaxing music, eat something good and read a good book! Isn't it that just visualizing this hygge atmosphere you already feel better?
No matter what type of perfumes you prefer: floral, fruity, oriental, fresh or other unique combinations on Notino you can find a lot of candles from famous brands. We prefer the ones from Yankee Candle, Bath and Body Works or Woodwick (the latter have wooden wicks). Candles transform a room, adding not only flavors and light, but also the ambiance, so we advise you to invest in more qualitative ones that also last longer. We like to have more flavors and alternate them and it seems that this is what the Danes recommend- at least 5 to enjoy the hygge as it should :)
Do you light scented candles in the cold season?
Anul acesta am citit 5 carti din colectia Hygge, cu siguranta danezilor le plac lumanarile. 🙂
Si mie imi plac lumanarile parfumate, folosesc constant, imi place mai ales sa am o lumanare parfumata langa mine atunci cand scriu, ma face sa ma simt mai inspirata. Yankee Candles si Bath & Body Works sunt printre colectiile mele preferate.
