Event and review: Daphne Home Scents
Wednesday, June 20, 2012 at 6:24AM One event I recently attended was the launch of Daphne Oseña-Paez's home fragrance and furniture line in Dimensione. I'd say it's one of the better functions I've been to lately! The second floor of Dimensione in High Street was transformed into a stylish high tea affair, quite deserving of Daphne's image as a stickler to detail and the evangelist for beautiful surroundings.
Watch the event unfold while Daphne tells the story of her new adventure. :)
Okay! I've been using the Daphne Home Scent in Mint Jasmine Infusion (P349) for a week now. How was it?
I like that the jasmine is not too pronounced - it smells quite sweet actually, with a hint of mint thrown in. The scent doesn't hurt the nose nor is it too distracting. It's soft and conveniently melts away in the background.
If you want your house smelling like it was dunked in a perfume bottle then I'd say you won't like this much. As for me, I want my place to smell calm and focused, not stressful!
Overall I am loving this Daphne Home Scent creation. :) Subtle, fabulous, and sophisticated are the first three words that come to mind whenever I catch a whiff of it. It also doesn't hurt that a bottle is only P349 in Dimensione and selected Bench stores! Will definitely try the other variants when I run out.
Good job Daphne and Bench! Can't wait to see what you'll cook up next.
Does this look like something you'll buy? Now that were on the topic: how do you achieve a home that smells amazing? Would love to know!

this is like a reed diffuser, right? Ive never tried one but because of this im going to hunt for this this weekend, hehe :) what i usually use for our house are the scented oils you put in a burner since it's more fragrant and inexpensive compared to scented candles. A plus point is that when you use burners instead of scented candles is that you can use your intricately designed candles as a decor only (mahal kasi hehe)... Try Mia mason (i think they have branches in greenbelt and eastwood) super bango! i heard yung eastwood crs are using that too :) for cheaper alternative, try the scented oils in SM..... ooohh to add pala, since im a kid and im afraid of the effects of insect killers the scent i usually select is citronella or lemongrass para anti insect :)
You should try the Homemade Lemon Tart! It's divine!
We use Mia Maison too, they have a wide array of scents to choose from. My favorite is Ocean Breeze that I alternate with Fresh Bamboo. They also have branches in ATC, Trinoma and Market Market. :)
Hi Liz. How long do you think this home scent infusion lasts? I bought one from Japan Home just to try it and it dried up pretty quickly. Less than a week, I think. Haha Thanks!
I'll definitely buy this one when I got my allowance for next month. I want my room to really smell good :) I'm just using Lysol to my room for it to smell good. Well, it's cheaper than Daphne Home Scent in Mint Jasmine Infusion. But, I think Daphne's product is worth the price :) Thanks <3
