Yoga & Fitness Studio Scenting
Fitness and yoga studios have two scent problems competing simultaneously: sweat odor (constant) and the desire for a wellness-coded atmosphere. Autivora at moderated intensity uses eucalyptus, mint, and citrus profiles that address both without distracting from the practice.

Considerations
- Off during practice — scent during savasana, not during flow
- Run high-intensity burst between classes for room reset
- Eucalyptus/mint signal "wellness" universally
Common Questions
Will diffused oils affect respiration during yoga?
At intensity 1–2 during savasana, no measurable respiratory effect in practitioners. Avoid intensity 4–5 during active practice — some students with asthma react.
Best scent for a hot yoga studio?
Eucalyptus and peppermint blends — they pair with heat and signal recovery. Avoid heavy florals in high heat.
How do I keep the studio fresh between classes?
5-minute high-intensity burst between classes (with windows or doors briefly open) resets the room. Then return to ambient mode for the next group.
