The company Sleep Scentsations was started by two sisters who wanted to create an affordable, portable form of aromatherapy. Their first products are “scented pillow liners,” with a “scent menu” of six categories ranging from Fresh to Exotic to Botanical. The scents are designed to evoke pleasant memories and positive emotional responses in the user, in order to calm him or her for a good night's sleep.
The pillow liners are individually wrapped in foil packets labeled with their fragrances; each liner has an adhesive backing and can be pressed directly onto a pillow. The liner is thin, so you can't feel it through the pillowcase, but the fragrance filters nicely through the linens. This product strikes me as being very convenient for travel. I'd like to have one of these handy in a hotel room, for example, or even on an airplane. They don't create any mess, and unlike candles, they don't pose any risk (it's never a good idea to burn a candle while you're sleeping!). They're not meant to fragrance an entire room, of course; their scent remains in the area immediately surrounding the pillow, so that it's a more private experience…
