Use it in closed rooms, on humid days, in monsoon season or after long hours of air conditioning; diffuse in short 20 to 30 minute runs.

Air-con room on a dry day · Green Tea blend

Lightly minty and cool; one exhale and it all feels open.

Lightly cool, like opening the door to a clean breeze: green tea lays a gentle base, with one drop each of eucalyptus, peppermint and lemon. Never harsh, it helps an air-conditioned room that has been shut all day feel less stale, the air fresher and cleaner-smelling. Lovely for bedrooms and offices on dry days. Run the diffuser for about 15 minutes, pause, then run it again as needed.

How it unfolds

On opening. Eucalyptus (strong, cool and wide open); peppermint (cool, sharp and clean); lemon (fresh, bright and clean) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Green tea (fresh, a little grassy and clean) 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.
