"Working memory is the brain's ability to temporarily hold and manipulate information for tasks like problem-solving, decision-making, and following instructions."

We conducted a pilot fMRI study to assess the impact of our In The Zone Functional Fragrance on working memory. The study included healthy women, aged 38-64, who performed two tasks aimed to evaluate motor and spatial working memory: Digit Forward-Backward Repetition Test and the Maze Navigation Test. Our fragrance was tested against a placebo and was found to have the potential to enhance working memory and cognitive performance.*

FAQs

What’s the difference between Sleep Plus and Deep Sleep spray? Can I use them together?

Our deep sleep pillow spray is designed to help you fall asleep faster and our motion-activated sleep plus pillow spray is designed to help you stay asleep for longer as it is released throughout the night. They can be used together or separately.

Is this safe to use around pets?

This product has not been specifically developed or assessed by any veterinarian and whilst there should be no cause for concern on incidental contact, we do not recommend spraying directly onto pet bedding.

Is this coconut lotion the same lotion as the "eucalyptus andpetitgrain" lotion? That is the one I'm looking for.

Yes, it is the same. The only difference in that different ingredients are highlighted on the packaging.

In The Zone Functional Fragrance

Petitgrain, Eucalyptus, Patchouli and Frankincense create a stimulating fragrance blend that helps to re-focus the mind.
shop In The Zone

geek mode

We conducted a pilot study that explored the potential cognitive benefits of our blend of Petitgrain, Eucalyptus, Patchouli and Frankincense. Results indicated that participants exposed to this fragrance outperformed placebo and control groups in both verbal and spatial working memory tasks.

The scent was also rated most pleasant, suggesting a link between olfactory stimulation and improved cognitive function. Alongside increasing attention and alertness, brain imaging revealed activation of regions critical to working memory and attention, such as the prefrontal cortex and anterior cingulate cortex. These findings cautiously suggest the fragrance's potential to enhance cognitive performance.
