A little cheesy, so what · Ylang Ylang, Rose, Neroli blend

Ylang ylang pours sweetness from the start, while rose and neroli split the rest equally, one soft, the other bright. A bit cheesy, sure, but cheesy in the right place never gets complaints. Great for evenings when you want to say sweet things without holding back. If it's too sweet, cut ylang ylang to 6 drops and increase neroli for a cleaner scent.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Ylang ylang (rich, creamy, tropical and sweetly floral); rose (deep, silky and luxurious); neroli (white-floral, honeyed and clear) form the body of the scent and stay 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.
