Clear your space. Shift the energy. Let scent set the tone this spring.

Spring has officially sprung. The windows are cracked open, the light’s a little brighter, and the urge to refresh everything is real.

But here’s the thing—spring cleaning doesn’t need to mean blitzing your cupboards like you’re prepping for a house inspection. At The Muses, we’re reframing it. Think of it as a spring reset: a chance to slow down, clear out what’s no longer serving you, and make space for what does.

It’s about energy. Atmosphere. And yes—scent.

Because fragrance is more than a finishing touch. It’s how you want your home to feel. And in a season of renewal, there’s no better tool for setting the tone.

Step 1: Declutter Your Energy (One Thing at a Time)

Clear space, clear head. But don’t go full minimalist in a single afternoon.

Try this instead: remove one item a day for the rest of the month.
That random bottle in your bathroom cabinet? Gone.
The kitchen gadget you haven’t used since 2019? Bye.

Small edits create big shifts—and make it way more manageable.

Step 2: Clean Consciously (Ditch the Nasties)

Let’s keep it clean—without the chemicals. Spring cleaning should feel fresh, not full of fumes.

Here’s how to switch things up:

1. Make a DIY spray with white vinegar, water + a few drops of essential oils
2. Use baking soda and lemon juice to refresh sinks, tiles, and surfaces
3. Trade disposable wipes for reusable microfibre cloths
   

Simple swaps, softer scents, and zero guilt.

Step 3: Scent the Scene (AKA Scent Scaping)

Now for the best bit. Once the clutter's gone and the surfaces sparkle, it’s time to bring the feeling back in. Scent shapes atmosphere—so choose fragrances that match the mood you want to create in each space.

It’s less about matching a scent to a specific room and more about how you want your home to feel. Ask yourself: how do I want to feel in this space? That’s your cue.

KICKBACK – Deeply relaxing and grounding. Brings a gentle stillness to wherever it lives—perfect for unwinding. Works beautifully in restful spaces like bedrooms or bathrooms, but it's all about where you need calm.

SUPERCHARGE – Bright, fresh and clarifying. Clears mental fog and brings focus. A go-to for work-from-home days, admin zones or anywhere you need a mental boost.

UNPLUG – Soft, warm, and effortlessly welcoming. Think cosy catch-ups, shared meals, and long conversations. Creates an easy atmosphere in communal spaces, hallways, or wherever life tends to gather.

TONIC – Fresh and punchy with real presence. Instantly lifts the mood and sparks energy—ideal for open-plan rooms, kitchens or multifunctional spaces that need a bit of zip.

SPACE – Cool, quiet, and peaceful. Brings a sense of stillness and clarity. Perfect for those little corners of calm—wherever you go to reset.

BE – Light, green and creatively charged. This one’s subtle—designed for the spaces where you like to get into flow. Reading, writing, planning, pottering. Doing what you love, not what you have to.

Final Touches: It’s Not Just Cleaning, It’s Clearing

Spring is a state of mind—and your space should reflect that. This isn’t about perfection. It’s about intention.

So as you throw open the windows and let that soft April light in, take a breath. Edit what’s not serving you. Choose what stays with care. And finish every corner with scent that sets the mood.

This is how you reset, the Muses way.
