Makes Perfect Scents
The Challenge of Keeping Small Spaces Smelling Fresh
Apr 16, 2025
Living in a small apartment has its perks—everything is within reach, and cleaning takes less time. But one big downside? Smells tend to stick around. Whether it’s last night’s dinner, pet odors, or a musty bathroom, bad smells can build up fast in a small space.
Luckily, there are simple ways to keep your home smelling clean and inviting. With a few smart habits and the right fragrance solution, you can enjoy a fresh space without worrying about lingering odors.

Common causes of bad smells in small spaces
Small apartments hold onto smells more than larger homes because there’s less airflow. Here are some common culprits:
-
Cooking smells – Strong spices, fried foods, and even coffee can leave lingering scents.
-
Bathrooms – Without good ventilation, moisture can create musty odors.
-
Closets and laundry areas – Dirty clothes and damp towels can create unwanted smells.
-
Pet odors – Even well-groomed pets can add their own odors to the home.
-
Trash and recycling bins – In small spaces, trash bins fill up quickly, and odors spread fast.
Understanding what causes odors is the first step in getting rid of them.
Easy ways to get rid of bad smells
One of the simplest ways to keep your apartment smelling fresh is to stay on top of cleaning. Wiping down surfaces regularly, vacuuming carpets, and washing fabrics like curtains, rugs, and bedding can make a big difference. If trash is sitting for too long, odors can spread quickly in a small space, so taking out the garbage often helps prevent lingering smells.
Fresh air is another easy fix. Opening windows, even for just a few minutes a day, allows air to circulate and removes stale odors. If your apartment doesn’t have great ventilation, using a small fan near a window can help push unwanted smells out.
For stubborn odors, natural odor absorbers work well. Baking soda is great for neutralizing smells in trash cans and carpets, while a small bowl of vinegar in the kitchen can help absorb strong food odors. Activated charcoal is another effective option, especially for tackling pet and smoke smells.
While cleaning and fresh air are important, adding a pleasant fragrance is what truly transforms a space.
