How do I use 8am office check-in in a diffuser?

Add Cypress 3 · Bergamot 2 · Sweet Orange 2 drops to 200–300 ml of water. In a room under 15 m², use 1–2 drops less; in a room over 25 m², add 1 more drop of the main oil.

What can I use instead of cypress?

Swap cypress for cedarwood or sandalwood — same woody family. The blend will shift a little: cedarwood is dry and warm, like a wooden chest and pencil shavings.

When is the best time to use 8am office check-in?

Best in the morning, early afternoon, or right after a nap; avoid using it close to bedtime.

8am office check-in · Cypress, Bergamot, Sweet Orange blend

Checking in at the office at eight in the morning, coffee in hand. Three drops of cypress open with cool needles, while bergamot and sweet orange, two drops each, add fresh citrus and cheerful sweetness. Great for an office or a reception desk early in the day. Start the diffuser before everyone arrives so the whole room greets the new day on a pleasant note.

How it unfolds

On opening. Bergamot (light citrus with a floral edge, Earl Grey style); sweet orange (ripe, sweet, cheerful and round) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Cypress (fresh, dry and clean like conifer wood) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.

What remains. With no woody or resin base note, this blend fades fairly quickly — switch it on again after 1–2 hours to keep the room scented.
