a slow wednesday

2 oils · Floral · Herbal · code BL-0532


Only three drops, yet midweek feels unhurried. Two drops of thyme give a warm, spicy dried-leaf note, a bit like grilling herbs; a single drop of geranium softens it with green rose. Good for a small desk, when you need a little focus without anything too minty. For a softer afternoon version, switch to one drop of thyme and two drops of geranium.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Thyme (warm, dry and herbal with a touch of spice); geranium (green and rosy, fresh and balanced) 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.

Safety

Skin irritant

Thyme can irritate skin — dilute well and patch-test on a small area first.

Do not use for children under 6, during pregnancy, or if you have a health condition without asking a professional first. Never ingest essential oils; keep them out of reach of children and pets.


FAQ

How do I use a slow wednesday in a diffuser?
Add Thyme 2 · Geranium 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 thyme?
Swap thyme for rosemary or eucalyptus — same herbal family. The blend will shift a little: rosemary is cool, green, herbal and invigorating.
When is the best time to use a slow wednesday?
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.
