Bathroom

Steam, tile, and a candle that doesn't compete.

The room

The bathroom wants a scent that doesn't fight the steam. Fresh, green, or citrus — nothing that turns cloying when it gets wet.

What to burn

scent    fig, or bergamot
level     one candle, on the sink
when      before a bath or shower
avoid     heavy amber

The point

Steam is a diffuser you already have. A small candle in a hot bathroom does the work of a bigger one anywhere else.
