Scenting for Casinos

Your guests and employees are going to smell your casino – it’s unavoidable. If you’re not managing how it smells, something else is.

Common malodors that are solved by scenting casinos include the following:

• Cigarette smoke
• Furniture and carpet odor
• Body odor
• Restroom odor
• Food odor
• Garbage odor

These types of malodors cannot be resolved with cleaning solutions alone without smelling like an institution, which is where Aroma Retail helps the Casino Industry with our casino scents.

Scenting for casinos is done for many reasons:

• A scented casino is both more immersive and fun, with an optimistic and safe environment.
• Increased revenue from guests willing to stay longer, play more, and return more, by creating a better first impression and more engaging experience because your casino smells refreshing and luxurious.
• Scents used in casinos increase productivity from employees because everyone has a better mood and is more comfortable in a great smelling casino.
•  Without scenting, your casino design and décor are incomplete and just doesn’t feel right.
