How do I use a scent that lingers like memories in a diffuser?

Add Lavender 2 · Neroli 2 · Sandalwood 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 lavender?

Swap lavender for geranium or ylang ylang — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: geranium is green and rosy, fresh and balanced.

When is the best time to use a scent that lingers like memories?

Use it at the end of the day, on weekends, while reading or right after a shower — whenever you want everything to slow down a beat.

A scent that lingers like memories · Lavender, Neroli, Sandalwood blend

Some scents belong to a person or a season and stay with you for a long time. Lavender and neroli open with soft purple and white flowers, then sandalwood settles into warm, creamy wood, which is the part that lingers in the room after the diffuser shuts off. Good for evenings spent flipping through old photo albums or writing letters by hand. For an even longer-lasting scent, add one drop of sandalwood.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing); neroli (white-floral, honeyed and clear) form the body of the scent and stay longest in the room.

What remains. Sandalwood (creamy, smooth and long-lasting) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.
