About

Our mission at Lilyfield Candles is to kindle the flames of purpose in every individual. We create all natural soy candles, eco-friendly diffusers along with body & linen sprays that are BPA-free. I find joy in creating these one-of-a-kind soy candles, diffusers and spray that are composed of sophisticated aromas. These unique scents can help create a positive environment, encouraging and inspiring one throughout life's journeys to discover one's true calling in life . This fervor for helping others unearth their purpose is the very essence that sparked the inception of Lilyfield Candles. Our aspiration is clear—to empower everyone to uncover their greater purpose and savor a "Life Lived Well".

Now to the science....the power of scent is an extraordinary phenomenon that deeply influences our emotions and memories. Unlike other senses, the olfactory system has a direct connection to the brain's limbic system, which is responsible for emotion and memory. This unique pathway allows scents to evoke vivid and powerful recollections, often transporting us back to specific moments in time with remarkable clarity. For instance, the smell of freshly baked cookies might instantly bring back memories of a grandmother's kitchen, filled with warmth and love.

Scientific research has shown that scent can trigger more emotional and detailed memories compared to other senses. When we encounter a new smell, our brain creates a unique association between the scent and the experience we had at that moment. These scent-related memories are stored in the hippocampus, a critical part of the brain involved in forming and retrieving memories. As a result, a simple whiff of a particular scent can unlock a flood of memories, bringing past experiences vividly to life.

The connection between scent and memory is not only profound but also incredibly personal. Each individual has a unique scent-memory map, shaped by their own life experiences. This is why the same fragrance can evoke different memories and emotions in different people. For some, the scent of pine might remind them of joyous holiday seasons spent with family, while for others, it could bring back memories of tranquil hikes through the forest. This personalized nature of scent memory makes it a powerful tool for evoking nostalgia and enhancing emotional well-being.

Incorporating scents into our daily lives can be a deliberate way to influence our mood and create lasting positive memories. Aromatherapy, for example, harnesses the power of essential oils to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and improve mental clarity. By understanding and utilizing the link between scent and memory, we can create environments that support emotional health and well-being. Whether it's lighting our all natural, soy, lavender-scented candle to unwind after a long day or using our eco-friendly diffuser to invigorate the senses in the morning, the strategic use of scents may help impact our overall quality of life and inspire you to create your amazing "Life Lived Well!"
