It is important to consider what texture your fauxs are; 'waxy' artificial flowers and leaves may not hold scents the same as 'fabric' artificial flowers and leaves. To find out what methods we found worked best for both 'waxy' and fabric fauxs, read on.
Before you begin adding scents to your faux foliage, ensure you are in a well-ventilated space.
Using perfume
For sprayed scents, you can either hold the plant or faux stem at a distance and lightly spray the plant all over, or for a more realistic effect, you can use the spray close up and spray just the flowers.
Using essential oils or diffuser liquid
One to two drops of essential oil or liquid diffuser scent can be added directly to the centre of a flower.
To add the scent to artificial leaves, add one to two drops of scent to a cloth and 'buff' into the leaf.
To prevent any colour distortion to your artificial stems, we advise opting for an alcohol free diffuser liquid.
Using scented lotions
For scented creams or lotions, simply add a pea-sized amount to your hand and 'massage' into the plant.
