Shopper 'gets so many compliments' with spray that 'wakes me up more than a coffee'
That back to school feeling has a habit of sticking around throughout September, even for people who haven't been to school in years. But for those struggling to get up, get going and get their brain back into gear, a powerful scent that offers a mental and wellbeing boost could do the trick and offer a reset.
Moods.co.uk create ‘functional fragrance’ sprays - which they call MoodRollers - that are designed to pep shoppers up, improve energy levels and motivation, with not a hint of caffeine involved - it’s all down to scent alone. This makes them ideal for students looking to focus, or anyone else wanting to get back into the groove at work.
Handily, the brand is running a promotion on two of its products - a nifty £5 off their Genius and Hustle Moodrollers (now £20 each) with the code SEPTEMBER5. Try both for a £10 total saving, plus, 1% of every Moods sale goes to mental health charities, the brand says.
Moods’ MoodRollers claim to be the first clinically-proven aromatherapy blends (they apparently went through the largest clinical trials in aromatherapy history) to help improve mood, mindset and mental well-being. All customers have to do is swipe the scented oils, which are vegan-friendly on certain pulse points - the wrists, temples, neck - for a super speedy focus boost, which they say should kick in within 30 seconds.
The Genius Moodroller is all about boosting cognitive function and mental clarity, ideal for those that wake up a bit brain foggy, or who have a big meeting ahead of them. They say this one is clinically proven in a trial of 90 people to improve brain function by 30%, increase alertness by 25% and improve memory accuracy by 15%. It also features the scents of lemongrass, rosemary and grapefruit and shoppers can pop it on when struggling with a mental block.
Get £5 off Genius and Hustle MoodRollers
These Moods’ MoodRollers are aromatherapy blends that claim to improve mood, mindset & mental well-being.
The Hustle Moodroller is for those moments when procrastination is becoming a problem. A dab of this can help renew focus, bump up energy levels and help shoppers feel more motivated - perfect when that to do list is looking overwhelmingly long. The brand says this Moodroller has been clinically shown to increase brain signal strength by 35%, increase accuracy for attention-based tasks by 10% and offer a 5% boost in cognitive processing speed, meaning it can help improve reaction time. It’s great for those that find themselves easily distracted too, and smells like peppermint, ginger and eucalyptus.
Try Hustle and Genius together for what Moods calls ‘full spectrum focus’, helping with attention span, motivation and energy. Or to try out all of their Moodrollers, nab the Rollercoaster set of eight minis, which includes Hustle and Genius, plus Euphoric and Fit.
As an alternative, try the Sundown Mood Roller from Wideye for £9.95, with scents of vanilla, lemongrass and lemon. Rather than focus and motivation, this oil is designed to be used during moments of shock or sadness. Or try the Haoma Clarity Organic Mood Roll for £14. This one is for helping out when a brain needs calming down, and features clary sage and rosemary.
Customers have shared their feedback on their Moods products, with one customer saying of the Genius Moodroller: “My favourite mood by far!!! I cannot stop applying this, I have already gone through 2 bottles. It smells so fresh and zesty almost wakes me up more than my coffee ever could. I get so many compliments whenever I have this on, and it makes me feel like an actual Genius.”
A second said of the Genius: “I wasn’t sure a pulse-point oil could actually do anything but Genius is now a non-negotiable part of my workday. Within 30 seconds, I feel clearer, more focused, and ready to go. The scent is so long lasting and beautifully complex - clean, green, and uplifting without being overpowering - and it lasts for hours. If you struggle with procrastination, brain fog or need a productivity boost without more caffeine, this is it. Total game-changer.”
A third said of the Hustle Moodroller: “This is my go-to to get through a long day at work, idk how but this scent actually helps me focus.”
On SpaceNK, one shopper said of one of the brand’s Euphoric Moodroller: “I believe that this scent was slightly too strong-smelling. It lasts for long periods of time and has a pleasant scent which induces the aromatic effects after it has had time to acclimate to where it was applied. However, when applied and shortly thereafter it is too pungent and overpowering on the nose in my opinion. I experienced a reduction in stress and feelings of happiness much more frequently with the Euphoria scent.”
However, another person said: "Idk how but this scent makes me feel so incredibly fresh and sharp. I always keep it in my work bag and roll on throughout the day."
The Moods’ Moodrollers are available now.
