Westin, for example, is known for its signature white tea scent which is diffused through public areas and can also be found in its in-room toiletries. Hotels latch on to this kind of brand awareness, and it becomes an integral part of earning repeat business. What may seem like semantics is actually big business, and these kinds of decisions are cherished parts of a brand’s well-being.
