How to make your home smell like a luxury hotel
A hotel lobby smells the same every time you walk in. That consistency, not a stronger scent, is what makes it feel luxurious.

The short answer
Clean and air the space first. Then use one hotel-inspired scent, on a schedule, at a low steady level. Vaayu suits a connected living area within its range. Pawan suits an individual room such as a bedroom.
How hotels do it
Four habits worth copying
- One signature. Hotels use one scent throughout, so it becomes recognisable.
- Low and steady. A light, constant scent feels expensive. A strong burst feels like air freshener.
- On a schedule. The scent runs in the hours people are there, not all night.
- A clean base. Scent works on top of fresh air and clean fabrics, not instead of them.
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.

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.
Is it the real hotel scent?
No. These oils are inspired by the style of each hotel’s scent. SOSA is not affiliated with any hotel brand.
Can I schedule them?
Yes. Pawan is set from the SOSA app with a timer, for example mornings and evenings. Vaayu is set from the SOSA app over Bluetooth or its buttons: the days, a run window of 1, 4, 8 or 24 hours, and the intensity.
Do they use water?
No. Both are waterless: they turn fragrance oil into a fine, dry mist, so there is no damp and no residue on furniture.
