What are the Best Essential Oils for Kitchen Smells?

No one likes a smelly kitchen. Whether it's the lingering stink of last night's seafood dinner or the sharp smell of onions, nobody wants to cook in an aromatic atmosphere. However, with the right essential oils, you can enjoy a fresh-smelling kitchen without any harsh chemicals.

What are the Best Essential Oils for Kitchen Smells?

Here are five of the best essential oils for getting rid of those pesky kitchen smells.

Lemon Essential Oil

Lemon essential oil was voted the fan favorite #1 essential oil for cleaning.

Lemon oil is one of the most versatile essential oils. Not only does it have a fresh, citrusy scent that can brighten up any room, but it also has antibacterial and antifungal properties. This makes lemon oil ideal for getting rid of lingering odors in the kitchen. Just add a few drops to a diffuser or spray bottle filled with water, and enjoy the refreshing smell of lemons throughout your kitchen.

The crisp and delightful aroma of lemon creates a cheerful and inviting scent. Lemon can help eliminate odors and germs. It also blends well with many essential oils, including cedarwood.

Tea Tree Essential Oil

Tea tree oil is another powerful essential oil that can be used to freshen up your kitchen. This oil has a strong, earthy scent that can help mask any unpleasant smells in your cooking area. In addition, tea tree oil is great for disinfecting surfaces and killing germs. So, if you're looking for an all-natural way to keep your kitchen clean and smelling fresh, tea tree oil is a great option.

Eucalyptus Essential Oil

Eucalyptus oil has a sharp, minty scent that is perfect for freshening up a smelly kitchen. This oil is also great for improving air quality, making it ideal for kitchens that tend to be stuffy or have poor ventilation. To use eucalyptus oil in your kitchen, simply add a few drops to a diffuser or spray bottle filled with water. You'll notice the difference immediately!

Rosemary Essential Oil

Rosemary oil is another excellent choice for freshening up your kitchen. This oil has a woodsy, herbaceous scent that can help mask any unpleasant smells in your cooking area. In addition, rosemary oil is great for boosting concentration and memory recall. So, if you're looking for an essential oil that can help you focus while you're cooking, rosemary is a great option.

Cedarwood Essential Oil

Cedarwood essential oil has a clean and woody aroma that is reminiscent of a deep wooded forest.This grounding oil is perfect for reducing unwanted bacteria and removing odors.

There are a few types of cedarwood essential oil that you can use in this recipe, they have similar properties and the aromas vary a bit. I personally like juniperus virginiana but cedus deodara works well too, more of a personal preference.

Cedarwood and Lemon Essential Oil Blend

Cedarwood and lemon essential oils are a versatile and potent blend that can offer many benefits. When used topically, cedarwood and lemon oil can help to soothe the skin and promote healing. When diffused, the oils can help to purify the air and uplift the mood.

The two oils also work well together to repel insects. To create a cedarwood and lemon oil repellent, simply combine 10 drops of cedarwood oil with 10 drops of lemon oil in a dark glass bottle. Then, add 1 ounce of carrier oil such as jojoba or sweet almond oil. Apply the repellent to exposed skin whenever necessary.

With its refreshing scent and powerful properties, cedarwood and lemon essential oil is a great addition to any home.

Lemon and cedarwood are both kid friendly essential oils.

DIY Kitchen Room Spray

Essential oils are amazing alternatives to commercial air fresheners or room sprays. Not only can they clear the air, they can also restore vitality in the kitchen and around the home. This combination of cedarwood lemon works well as a essential oil kitchen room spray.

The kitchen can be filled with many odors and lingering cooking smells. Try using essential oils for deodorizing actions with antiseptic and antimicrobial properties.

Neutralize odors and microbes in the air, as well as on kitchen surfaces with this natural air freshener spray.

Items Needed:

  • 15 drops Lemon (Citrus limon)
  • 10 drops Cedarwood (Juniperus virginiana or Cedrus deodara)
  • 1 teaspoon White vinegar
  • Distilled water
  • 4 oz Glass spray bottle

Directions:

Add essential oils and vinegar into a 4 oz spray bottle, fill rest of bottle with distilled water. Shake well to blend.

Be sure to label your bottle. Here is the tag I used in the picture to label my bottle, works great without sticker residue!

To use, shake well and spritz into air to freshen or on kitchen surfaces and wipe with a microfiber cloth. Enjoy the wonderful clean aroma coming out of your kitchen!
