You know how you can purchase air fresheners for your ride that smell like “new car?” Well, candle company Homesick crafted the smell of “new home.”

The brand’s new collaboration with Pura, the company behind the smart home fragrance diffuser, has made it easier to keep your house smelling like “new home” 24/7.

Homesick specializes in blending scents to smell like home, wherever that may be. Los Angeles, Boston, New York, the beach cottage you spend summers at — there’s a candle for that nostalgic smell. And their New Home blend is no different.

It smells like “fresh linen, clean air, a blank canvas all to your own,” according to the site, with top notes of jasmine and cedarwood, mid notes of lime and sandalwood, and base notes smelling of oakmoss and musk.

And you don’t even have to light up a candle to keep that New Home scent in the air. Homesick partnered with Pura to launch a fragrance oil with the same notes to install in your Pura plug-in diffuser.

The Pura diffusers are controlled with an app that allows you to set the intensity of the fragrance as well as set up a schedule for your diffuser to release fragrance at certain points throughout the day.

Plus, each diffuser can fit two fragrances, so you can switch between New Home and another smell as often as you’d like. Each fragrance oil is paraben-free, cruelty-free, and safe to use around kids and pets. 

Even if your house is far from new, you can still get that crisp, clean “new home” scent that inspires you to get creative and build a place that suits you.
