Blending a whopping 14 essential oils, the Perfect Night’s Sleep Pillow Mist from NEOM contains the widest selection of essential oils on our list. In the ingredients are the standard English lavender, but also sweet basil and jasmine, which are both proven to induce relaxation. 

Transforming your bedroom into a spa in just a few quick spritzes, it will be hard not to hit the hay when the scent fills the room. The formula contains 100% natural ingredients and an alcohol carrier so it should last a good while.

Created as a successor to their cult favourite Deep Relax Bath and Shower Oil, the Deep Relax Sleep Mist from Aromatherapy Associates has become another all-time favourite. Using the same scents and base ingredients, this spray helps create a calming, sleep-enhancing atmosphere perfect for relaxation.

Spray liberally over your pillows, duvet, pyjamas and anywhere else where you want the gorgeous scent to reach your nose, then breathe in and sink deep. If you really want to feel the benefits, why not try it in conjunction with their bath oil! 

While the Tisserand Aromatherapy Pillow Mist does contain the essential sleep-inducing lavender, it’s not too overpowering. Blended with jasmine and sandalwood, the spray opts for more of a spa-like feel to help still busy minds and anxious bodies. 

What’s great about this option is that even though it is water-based it stays airborne for hours, meaning it’s an excellent pick for those who tend to wake up a few times throughout the night. It’s lightweight too, making it great for misting pillows without ending up with a damp cheek when you lay down.

Another lavender-infused spray, the Wellness Sleep Mist, is scientifically proven to aid in sending you off to dreamland. The formula also contains hyaluronic acid, which replenishes your skin barriers overnight when sprayed on your pillow, face and even your body.

Creating a gorgeous spa-like experience at home, the blend of jasmine, frankincense, patchouli and ylang-ylang essential oils will surely lull you into a calm space ready for a nice deep sleep. 

Containing a classic blend of lavender and chamomile, the pillow spray from VOTARY is everything you expect from a night-time mist. The formula also includes a blend of skin-repairing ingredients and antioxidants, making it great for resting your weary skin at night.

This is one of the most expensive sleep sprays on our list, but it’s also one of the largest, so you do get decent value for money. That said, you can tell! With the extra addition of rose, this mist makes you feel like you're bedding in the land of luxury. 

With one quick spritz, the pillow mist from L’Occitaine will make you feel like your wandering through the gently swaying lavender fields in the south of France. But it doesn’t only contain the magic purple herb, this blend also includes bergamot, mandarin, geranium and sweet orange. 

Together, they create a calming, relaxing energy, however, it can be a little overwhelming and strong for some, so we suggest spraying it on your pillow or in your bedroom a little before you plan to hit the hay, allowing it time to settle. But at least you know it’s going to last throughout the night!

Containing a soothing blend of frankincense, cedarwood, ylang-ylang, lavender and hops, the pillow spray from REN works wonders to relieve muscle pain, calm your mind and create a restful atmosphere. Unlike the usual floral scent of pillow mists, this one is more woody and earthy.

While not a common ingredient in pillow sprays, frankincense is an excellent one to include to relax your mind and body, with many herbalists using it to aid in anxiety. Unfortunately, the spray is water-based, which means that the fragrance might not stay airborne too long.

The pillow sprays from Feather & Down contains the standard relaxation ingredients of lavender and chamomile that help calm an anxious mind and ease you into the land of nod. With an enviable following on Amazon, this is an excellent purchase if you’re looking for a budget-friendly option. 

The reviews speak for themselves, with many people never even considering trying another sleep spray after giving this one a go. However, with a water-based formula, the scent might not hang around too long.

Here's one specifically created for the little ones in your life who have trouble getting to sleep at night. It's created with a blend of fragrances, it is quite strong, so you only need a quick spray to allow the mist to fill the room with calming fragrance.

If you’re not a fan of lavender, this is an excellent choice as the strongest notes come from the frankincense, rose and linden blossom. Although it is suitable for children as young as newborns, the ingredients list simply states 'parfum' rather than a list of essential oils.
