Holker Boss tells PEOPLE that her favorite thing about her new home is the scent. “I am religious about my house scent and every day at 5:00 PM, I do a turn, almost like what you get at hotels," the mother of three says. “The lighting shifts, the mood shifts, the candle shift, everything has a big moment and turns into our night events. So I love that.”
She’s “obsessed with Le Labo" for her candles, she says, and tends to go for the scent Santal on the main level of the home and Palo Santo in her primary suite. “Yes, I’ve always been a scent girly and then when I moved here I was like, ‘Okay, what is this house’s scent?’ That was a big thing for me.”
