a 20-second hug

3 oils · Floral · Woody · code BL-1660


Rose takes over the opening, geranium follows with a slightly leafy green rose note, and a single drop of patchouli is enough for a warm base, like arms that don't want to let go. Great for the bedroom or a sofa corner on days you just want to be close. Don't push patchouli past two drops or the earth will drown the florals; a small room of about 10 m² is where it spreads beautifully.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Rose (deep, silky and luxurious); geranium (green and rosy, fresh and balanced) form the body of the scent and stay longest in the room.

What remains. Patchouli (like damp earth and dark wood, deeply sweet) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.


Method

FAQ

How do I use a 20-second hug in a diffuser?
Add Rose 4 · Geranium 2 · Patchouli 1 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 rose?
Swap rose for lavender or ylang ylang — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: lavender is floral-herbal, clean and soothing.
When is the best time to use a 20-second hug?
Made for date nights, candlelit dinners and private spaces; switch it on 15 minutes before anyone arrives.
