This is more marketing copy for a steady client. Here is the full phrase in which these two words appear:
Musiche appositamente composte per entrare in sinergia con oli essenziali, creando un ***contesto sonoro*** e aromatico per una completa azione riequilibrante, calmante e rilassante.
I have translated the sentence and am clear as to its meaning. Now I want to convey it in as "attractive" a manner as possible.
Any thoughts here are welcomed!
