The Science of Botanical Aromatherapy & Sage

South Downs Way's fragrance profile taps into powerful neurological responses to botanical and coastal scents. Research published in Frontiers in Psychology shows that sage aromatherapy activates the parasympathetic nervous system, reducing cortisol levels by up to 25% and promoting deep relaxation—mimicking the stress-relieving effects of being in nature. Meanwhile, sea salt aromatherapy creates a coastal sensory experience that reduces stress and enhances mood, while cedarwood essential oils contain grounding compounds that increase serotonin production (the "happiness neurotransmitter"), improving mood and reducing anxiety.

Studies demonstrate that lavender aromatherapy stimulates the limbic system (emotional centre), enhancing calm and mental clarity, while woody and herbal notes activate the prefrontal cortex, balancing emotions and creating a sense of grounded alertness. This scientifically-backed combination creates a neurologically optimised environment for stress reduction, mental clarity, and countryside tranquillity throughout your day—the perfect scent for busy weeks when you need to escape to the South Downs without leaving home.

Perfect for:

Living rooms (grounding calm + relaxation)

Bedrooms (stress relief before sleep)

Home offices (mental clarity + focus)

Meditation spaces (deep grounding)

Bathrooms (spa-like natural freshness)
