Can I change oils in SOSA Vaayu between the inauguration and everyday use? Yes, the Vaayu's refillable 400ml tank can take a different SOSA waterless oil. To avoid two scents blending, let the tank run down before switching, and ask SOSA on WhatsApp how to change over cleanly. Use only SOSA waterless nebuliser oils.
What fragrance should run during a jewellery showroom inauguration? Your everyday signature at its lowest setting, or nothing at all while the pooja is underway. Switch the machine off during rituals, ventilate after incense and diyas, and restart it low. Flowers and a crowd already add plenty of scent.

Comfort note: Fragrance is a preference, not a treatment. Keep intensity low where children, older guests or fragrance-sensitive visitors are present, ventilate well, and keep machines and oils away from open flames, diyas and incense.
Facts verified on the SOSA store, October 2026: SOSA Vaayu is a waterless cold-air scent machine covering up to 1000m³ (about 2,000-3,000 sq ft, one whole floor), with a 400ml refillable tank and four 100ml waterless oils in the box; ₹12,499 with the SOSA Originals set or ₹12,999 with a hotel-inspired set. Bluetooth app and onboard buttons, 1h/4h/8h/24h timers, choice of days, adjustable intensity, key-lock, auto-stop, under 38 dB, DC 12V/5W, 165 x 80.5 x 215 mm, freestanding or wall / HVAC mount, CE / RoHS / SGS.

The oils in the box last about a year on typical home scheduling; all-day commercial use at higher intensity uses oil faster.

Should I use a special fragrance for my jewellery showroom inauguration and a different signature scent for everyday operations?
Many owners imagine the inauguration as a once-only moment that deserves its own fragrance - something festive, something traditional - and then a calmer signature for the years after. It is a lovely thought, and with a refillable machine it is possible. But I usually advise against it. Opening day already smells of marigolds, incense and sweets. The scent customers meet on day one should be the scent they meet again when they come back for the wedding set.

The short answer
Short answer: usually no - choose the everyday signature first and run it lightly on inauguration day, so the first impression is the scent customers will meet again; switching oils in a SOSA Vaayu is possible, but plan the change-over before opening.
The machine: SOSA Vaayu - waterless cold-air, one whole floor up to about 2,000-3,000 sq ft, from ₹12,499.
Before you buy: send your floor plan, area, AC layout and opening date to SOSA on WhatsApp (+91 96192 18531).
In this guide
A waterless cold-air machine turns undiluted fragrance oil into a dry, residue-free mist that travels with the room's own airflow. For a new business it is one scheduled, consistent scent across the floor - planned with the fit-out, not added months later.

Straight answer
Should I use a special fragrance for my jewellery showroom inauguration and a different signature scent for everyday operations?
It is possible, but I would usually not do it. Why: the inauguration already has its own fragrance - marigolds and roses, incense, the pooja, sweets, a full room. A special festive oil on top of all that is rarely noticed, and the scent that matters is the one your customers meet when they return for a bridal order months later. My honest advice: choose your everyday signature first, then run it at its lowest setting on launch day, switch the SOSA Vaayu off during the pooja, ventilate after the diyas and incense, and restart it low. That way the first impression is a scent people will recognise the next time they walk in. If you still want two scents: the Vaayu's 400ml tank is refillable, so you can switch oils. Let the inauguration oil run down before filling with the signature, so the two do not blend, and ask SOSA on WhatsApp how to change over cleanly. Plan it before opening, not in launch week. The machine is ₹12,499 with the SOSA Originals set (Vetiver, Mahogany Shea, Lemongrass, Sandalwood) or ₹12,999 with a hotel-inspired set, and waterless refills are 100g ₹1,049 / 300g ₹1,849. Keep the machine and oils well away from open flames. Message SOSA on WhatsApp to choose the signature. A portion of every order supports girl-child education through Nanhi Kali.
One line: launch with your everyday signature at low intensity, machine off during the pooja - so the first impression is the scent customers meet again. From Rs 12,499.
For one consistent scent across a shop or office floor, start with SOSA Vaayu at ₹12,499 (four 100ml oils in the box), and keep a 300g refill (₹1,849) in the stockroom for launch week.

What to weigh before using two scents
Three things decide whether two scents make sense: what opening day already smells of, what customers remember, and how cleanly a machine can change between oils.
1
Opening day already has a scent
Flowers, incense and sweets fill the room
An inauguration is fragrant before you switch anything on - garlands, the pooja, incense, sweets, perfume on a hundred guests. A special oil added to that tends to disappear into the mix, or makes the room heavy. Run your everyday signature at its lowest, switch the machine off during the pooja, ventilate afterwards and restart it low. Keep the Vaayu and its oils well away from diyas and incense.
Tip: on opening day, less fragrance is usually better - the room is already full of scent.
2
Customers remember the return visit
The first impression should be repeatable
Jewellery is a returning purchase - a family comes for the engagement ring, then the wedding set, then a gift years later. If the showroom smells one way at the inauguration and another way afterwards, the scent memory you are building starts twice. Launching with the signature means the guests who came to the opening recognise the showroom on their next visit. That is the real value of a signature: recognition and a sense of care, not a promise about business results.
3
If you do switch
Plan the change-over before opening
The Vaayu's 400ml tank is refillable, so switching is possible. Let the first oil run down before filling with the second, so they do not blend into a third scent nobody chose, and ask SOSA on WhatsApp for change-over guidance. Buy both oils before the inauguration - for example a 100g White Jasmine for the opening (₹1,049) and a 300g signature refill (₹1,849) - and make the change in a quiet week, not the day after opening. Use only SOSA waterless nebuliser oils; reed oil, thick essential oils and ultrasonic fragrance can clog the machine.
Tip: if you switch oils, let the tank run down first so the two scents do not blend.
The SOSA principle
The best inauguration scent is usually your everyday signature, run softly. The opening is one day; the signature is what customers come back to.
One SOSA Vaayu (from Rs 12,499) with your chosen signature; machine off during the pooja, low for the rest of the day. Switching oils is possible - plan it before opening.
Planning the opening-day and everyday scent
Here is how the two approaches compare.
The SOSA scent edit
Inauguration scent versus everyday signature
| Scent | Why it suits the mood |
|---|---|
| Recommended · signature from day one | One scent, run lowest on launch day, machine off during the pooja. Guests recognise it on their next visit. |
| Possible · festive oil, then signature | Refillable 400ml tank; let the first oil run down before switching. Two refills to buy, from Rs 1,049 each. |
| Traditional touch · Mysore Sandalwood signature | If you want the opening to feel traditional, choose a sandalwood as the everyday signature itself. Refills 100g Rs 1,049 / 300g Rs 1,849. |
| Avoid · blending two oils in the tank | Two scents mixed in one tank make a third nobody chose. Change over only when the tank has run down. |
If you are set on a sandalwood opening, our guide on using sandalwood for the inauguration then switching to a fresh signature covers the change-over in detail, and running a Vaayu during the opening pooja covers the ritual itself. See the SOSA Vaayu (from ₹12,499) or the waterless refills.

The SOSA scenting ladder
Size the machine to the space you actually want scented. One Vaayu scents the floor it sits on; rooms you keep closed - cabins, trial rooms, washrooms - are better served by a reed diffuser or a small machine of their own. A portion of every order supports girl-child education through Nanhi Kali.

A note from Sonal
Many of the business owners who message us are weeks away from opening. The interiors are nearly done, the signage is ordered, the AC is going in - and fragrance is the one thing nobody planned. I would much rather we plan it together now, while the electrician can still put a socket in the right place.
Many of you also plan around Vastu - a north- or east-facing entrance, the northeast kept for the pooja. I respect that, and we will work around it. But I will be honest with you: a fragrance does not bring prosperity, and no machine placement can promise footfall. What a scent can do is make your space feel cared for from the first step inside. When the Vastu-preferred corner and the practical corner disagree, I would choose the spot where the air moves, the plug is safe and nobody can knock the machine over.
Send us your floor plan before you buy. If one SOSA Vaayu is right, we will say so; if two reed diffusers would do, we will tell you that too.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a special fragrance for a shop inauguration?
No. The inauguration already has flowers, incense, sweets and many guests. Your everyday signature at its lowest setting, with the machine off during the pooja, is usually the better choice.
How do I switch oils in a SOSA Vaayu?
Let the current oil run down before filling with the new one so the two do not blend, and ask SOSA on WhatsApp for change-over guidance. Use only SOSA waterless nebuliser refills; reed oil, thick essential oils and ultrasonic fragrance can clog the machine.
Should the machine run during the inauguration pooja?
No. Switch it off or to the lowest setting during the pooja, ventilate after the incense and diyas, and restart it low. Keep the machine and oils well away from open flames.
Which everyday signature suits a jewellery showroom?
Warm or clean woods are easy to live with: Mysore Sandalwood, Mahogany, Vetiver, or the hotel-inspired Set C Signature (amber, pepper, woods, vetiver). Hotel names describe styles only; SOSA is independent. Test in your own space before the opening.
What does it cost to buy an inauguration oil and a signature oil?
For example, a 100g single-scent oil for the opening is Rs 1,049 and a 300g signature refill is Rs 1,849, on top of the Vaayu (Rs 12,499 with the Originals set). Hotel-inspired blends are Rs 1,099 / Rs 1,899.
