A Gift for Your Parents’ New Home

A gift for your parents’ new home
A new home takes a while to feel like theirs. The right scent, set to come on in the morning and evening, helps it settle faster.

The short answer
Start with their routine. If they spend most of the day in one room, gift Pawan for that room. If they live mostly in one large open living area, Vaayu may suit. Set the schedule for them before you hand it over, so they never need to touch the app.
Think about them
Choose by their space, scent and routine
- Their room. The bedroom, the puja corner or the living room where they read the paper. Pawan suits a single room.
- Their scent. Many parents prefer the familiar warmth of vetiver and sandalwood to anything sharp or sweet.
- Their routine. Set Pawan’s timer for the hours they are at home, so it runs without them having to manage it.
- Their health. If either parent has asthma, migraines or a fragrance sensitivity, check with their doctor and start on the lowest setting.
Pawan or Vaayu?
Choose by the space, not the label
A flat size or a room name is only a starting point. Layout, ceiling height, airflow and closed doors decide what a space really needs.
Pawan: one room
One room of up to about 500 sq ft: a bedroom, study, cabin or small living room. It plugs into the wall, runs silently and is set from the SOSA app.
Vaayu: a connected space
One open, connected space of up to 1000 m³, roughly 2,000 to 3,000 sq ft depending on ceiling height. It schedules by day, run window and intensity.
Closed doors count
A room you keep closed is its own space. One Vaayu will not reach behind a shut bedroom door, so a closed room usually needs its own Pawan.
Before you gift
Five questions that make it the right gift
- Which space is it for? One room points to Pawan. A large open living area or reception points to Vaayu. If you are not sure, ask them, or ask us.
- Which scent family do they enjoy? Woods and vetiver, or a clean hotel-lobby style. Both machines come with oils in the box, so the first scent is part of the gift.
- Will they look after a device? Each machine needs a socket, an occasional refill and a few minutes with the app or buttons to set a schedule.
- What arrives? Pawan comes with two 100 ML oils. Vaayu comes with four 100 ML oils, a power adapter and an app pairing guide.
- How do refills work? Both run only on SOSA waterless oils. Vaayu takes our 100 G and 300 G refills, and we will tell them which refill suits a Pawan.

Questions
Before you choose
Should I choose Pawan or Vaayu?
Pawan suits one room of up to about 500 sq ft. Vaayu suits one connected space of up to 1000 m³, roughly 2,000 to 3,000 sq ft depending on ceiling height. A room kept behind a closed door usually needs its own Pawan.
Will they need to use an app?
Pawan is controlled from the SOSA app. Set the timer for them once, on your phone or theirs, and it will keep running on that schedule.
What if someone in the home is sensitive to fragrance?
If someone is pregnant, has asthma, migraines or a known fragrance sensitivity, check with your doctor first, start on the lowest setting and keep the space ventilated.
What arrives in the box?
Pawan arrives with two 100 ML oils in the two scents you choose. Vaayu arrives in Black or White with four 100 ML oils, a power adapter and the SOSA app pairing guide.
