Fragrance for a Holiday Home or Airbnb in the UAE
SOSA · Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah
A welcome guests remember in the UAE
Holiday homes are common in Dubai. Guests arrive from long flights into a cooled apartment, and the first minute inside sets the tone of the stay.

The short answer
Scent the space guests walk into first. In a holiday home or Airbnb, that is usually the living area: Vaayu if it is one large connected room, Pawan if it is compact. Keep the intensity light, set the schedule at the property, and check the oil at every changeover.
Your plan
Step by step
- The arrival room. Scent the living area guests enter first; bedrooms only if you choose.
- Keep it light. Guests vary, so a soft, clean scent at a low setting suits most.
- Set the schedule on site. Set the run window in the SOSA app while you are at the property.
- Check at changeover. Look at the oil level and wipe the machine as part of the turnover routine.
- Tell guests. Add a line to the house manual on what it is and how to switch it off.
In the UAE
What changes in the UAE
Cooled, closed rooms
Air-conditioning runs for most of the year and homes stay closed against the heat, so fragrance is planned around cooled, closed rooms.
Holiday-home rules
Holiday-home letting in Dubai and the other emirates is regulated, so check the rules that apply to your property.
Delivery and plugs
Orders to the UAE usually arrive in about a week. Sockets in the UAE are Type G, so Pawan, which plugs straight into the wall, usually needs a plug adapter. Ask us which one before you order.

Questions
Before you choose
Will guests find it too strong?
Not at a low setting on a schedule. Your house manual can tell guests how to switch it off if they prefer.
Can it be ready before each arrival?
Yes. Set the run window in the SOSA app while you are at the property, timed to your usual check-in hours.
Do you deliver to the UAE?
Yes. Orders to the UAE usually arrive in about a week. Sockets in the UAE are Type G, so Pawan, which plugs straight into the wall, usually needs a plug adapter. Ask us which one before you order.
What should I send you for a recommendation?
A floor plan or rough sketch, the size of each room, ceiling height, which doors stay closed, where the sockets are, the hours the space is used and the scents you like. Photos help too.
