Aromatherapy vs Aromachology?

Aromachology is a science that studies the effects of fragrances on the human body and mind. It researches how scents can be used to induce relaxation and make life more pleasant..  Aromachology is the study of how scents affect our behavior. In aromatherapy, scents are used as a therapeutic medium in a bid to cure certain ailments, especially stress related ailments.

Aromatherapy only uses essential oils of plants. Aromatherapy products actually have subtle effects on the mind, emotions, and even the body that help you perk up, relax or feel better. Aromachology can include synthetic fragrances as well as essential oils although not in enough quantities to create the same effects as aromatherapy. Aromachology is all about psychology, which is why you may feel comforted smelling the perfume your mother used to wear or saddened at the scent of your late grandfather's pipe tobacco.  Goode Scents has many aromachology products and they are designed to bring you pleasant experiences and memories.  It is truly amazing what scents can do for you.  They can lift your mood, remind you of someone special, lower your stress level, and even take you back to another day and time with your memories.  The next time you want to inspire a certain mood in your home---burn a Goode Scents candle
