Summer changes the way a venue behaves. Doors are open more often, street air comes in, the air conditioning runs all day and customers arrive hot and more sensitive to smells. The fragrance that worked in January is usually too much in August.
This is the logic we follow to adapt to the season, using the fragrances we actually carry in the catalogue.
Why you have to adjust in summer
In the heat, fragrance disperses sooner and is perceived more strongly. If the unit's settings are left untouched, what was a pleasant background in winter becomes invasive. The first summer adjustment is not changing the scent: it is lowering the intensity and reviewing the time slots.
The second is ventilation. A door open to the street carries the scent away in minutes, so in those areas it is better to position the unit near the internal airflow rather than beside the entrance.
Which families work best
Citrus. Lemon is the most direct: a sense of clean, energising without tiring, and it holds up well through the busiest hours. Entrances, waiting areas and venues with high turnover.
Green and mentholated. Green Tea and Mint give freshness without the sharpness of citrus. They suit spaces that are also after calm: clinics, wellness centres, waiting rooms. Mint calls for low intensity.
Aquatic. Nº3 is the most marine option in the numbered range, with a citrus opening. It works particularly well in windowless interiors, where it offsets the feeling of stale air.
Light fruits. Coconut, Mango and Fig, for informal or leisure spaces: terrace bars, young fashion, gyms, holiday accommodation. Coconut is the sweetest, so it is worth measuring carefully.
White florals. Orange Blossom and Jasmine, when the business needs freshness but in a more elegant register than citrus.
What to shelve until October
Warm, dense fragrances — the spicy woods and the orientals in the numbered range, such as Nº4, Nº12 or Nº23 — give a sensation of heat and feel heavy in summer. If they are part of the business's identity, the answer is not to drop them: it is to lower the intensity considerably through the hottest months and bring them back in autumn.
Before the scent, the background odour
Three sources flare up in summer: the bin and the bin store, drains with traps that dry out, and the kitchen. In the heat, all of them smell sooner and stronger. Scenting on top only makes the mixture worse.
The order does not change: deal with the source, ventilate, neutralise the critical areas — Aloe Vera, Cotton Fresh or Jasmine Neutral — and scent the customer areas afterwards. It is all set out in the guide to eliminating bad odours in a business.
How the season change is made
The unit is the same all year round: only the refill changes. On rental (from 29.90 €/month + VAT per unit, refills included and no lock-in) the fragrance change is made at the monthly replenishment, without touching the device or paying anything extra.
