How to make your house smell like coffee.

Coffee-scented candles

The most popular way to make your house smell like coffee is to use coffee-scented candles. You can either use store-bought coffee-scented candles or homemade coffee-scented candles. To make coffee-scented candles at home, you’ll need coffee beans, a tea light, and a lovely ceramic mug or glass jar. Fill the cup or jar with coffee beans, place the tea light on top of the coffee beans, and light the candle. Since vanilla pairs well with coffee, you can try using vanilla-scented tea lights for extra fragrance. The heat emitted by the tea light will warm up the coffee beans causing them to release a pleasant subtle coffee aroma.

Alternatively, use coffee grounds, a candle wick, candle wax, and a glass jar. Heat the candle wax until it melts, then pour it into the pot, with the wick balanced in the middle, layering it with the coffee grounds and let it cool. Once the candle wax completely solidifies, you can now light the candle and enjoy the coffee scent throughout your house.

Coffee-scented air fresheners

Coffee-scented air fresheners are another way of making your house smell like coffee. You can also get these air fresheners at the store or use homemade ones. To make a coffee-scented air freshener at home, you’ll need a clean pair of stockings and coffee beans. Fill one of the stockings’ “feet” with coffee beans, and then hang the stockings wherever you want the coffee aroma. This isn’t the prettiest setup, so ensure you use this ‘air freshener’ in enclosed places like the closet.

For a more appealing ‘air freshener,’ find a gorgeous glass jar or China teacup, fill it with coffee beans, and place it in the living room or kitchen countertop. This method provides a subtle coffee scent throughout.

Coffee-scented soap

Another way of ensuring your house smells like coffee is to use coffee-scented soaps. Coffee-scented soaps can either be bought or made at home. Stock your bathrooms and kitchen with coffee-scented soap for a burst of coffee aroma throughout the house. To make coffee-scented soap at home, you’ll need a shea butter soap base, ¼ teaspoon of vanilla essential oil, ¼ cup of coffee grounds, coffee fragrance oil, and a large cube silicone mold.

The directions are; to cut the soap into tiny pieces and place them in a microwave-safe bowl, then add coffee grounds and place the mixture in the microwave. Heat the mixture for 40 seconds, take it out, add the other ingredients and stir, then put it back into the microwave.

Repeat this process in 20-second intervals until the soap is completely melted, then remove it from the microwave, carefully pour it into the silicone mold, and let it cool. Once completely cooled and solidified, cut the soap into sizeable bars and place them in the bathrooms and the kitchen.

Coffee-scented aromatherapy diffusers

Coffee-scented aromatherapy diffusers are an excellent investment if you want your house to smell like coffee. Find suitable electronic diffusers on retail websites like Amazon with coffee-based fragrance oils. A great option is the P&J Coffee Shop diffuser.

Coffee fridge deodorizer

If you want a subtle coffee scent in your kitchen, a coffee fridge deodorizer is an excellent option. Fill a small bowl with coffee grounds and place it behind the fridge to eliminate any stuffy whiffs and promote a subtle coffee aroma throughout the kitchen.
