When we inhale a certain scent, the molecules travel through our nose, bind to its olfactory receptors and send signals to the brain, potentially triggering an emotional or physiological response. This is why certain smells can evoke memories and affect your state of mind. According to a study from Yale University, there are four scents that can help improve your mood. Experts from the soap brand Dr. Bronner's have the lowdown on the benefits of each one. Lavender One of the most common scents used to create a calming atmosphere is lavender.
