Adding orange zest to your toilet paper can actually be a fun and surprisingly effective way to freshen up your bathroom. Here’s how it works and why it’s surprisingly popular:
Why Put Orange Zest on Toilet Paper?
- Natural Air Freshener: Orange zest has a refreshing, citrusy aroma that can subtly scent your bathroom. Each time you reach for toilet paper, the pleasant smell of orange is released, making the space feel fresher.
- Eco-Friendly: Using orange zest is an all-natural way to add fragrance without the chemicals often found in commercial air fresheners.
- Mood Booster: Citrus scents like orange can have uplifting effects on mood and help reduce stress, giving your bathroom a light, inviting feel.
How to Use Orange Zest with Toilet Paper
- Preparation: Grate or peel a bit of orange zest (be careful to use only the outer orange layer, as the white pith is bitter and lacks scent).
- Place on the Roll: Place a few small pieces of the zest inside the cardboard tube of the toilet paper roll, or even on top of the paper itself, to allow the fragrance to infuse gradually.
- Replace Regularly: For maximum freshness, replace the zest every few days.
It’s a creative, simple trick that adds a refreshing and unexpected touch to your bathroom!
