Action

Use a small diffuser with a few drops of essential oil in the corner of the room. Select a scent both of you like such as sandalwood or rose. Run it for thirty minutes before you plan to be in the bedroom. Keep the device clean to avoid any bad smells.

Pro-Tip

Start with one drop of oil and add more if needed. Have a backup scent ready in case one does not work for both of you.

Spicy Twist

Let the scent fill the air then turn off the diffuser so it does not distract later.
