Diffuser

Use a diffuser and fill it up with your choice of essential oils that make your house turn into a home away from home. The diffuser not only adds up the aroma in the entire house but also acts as a moisture control device for your house which you can turn on whenever you feel that the air is too dry.

Potpourri

Last but not least is to make a potpourri. If you are someone who loves making different types of potpourri then this tip is a no brainer for you. But for those who don't know, you can make potpourri by boiling citrus, cinnamon, and rosemary and even rose petals to fume your room with Christmas aroma.
