How do I use art gallery afternoon in a diffuser?

Add Lavender 3 · Geranium 2 · Ylang Ylang 2 · Sandalwood 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 lavender?

Swap lavender for Roman chamomile or rose — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: Roman chamomile is like ripe apple and dry hay, soft and mellow.

When is the best time to use art gallery afternoon?

Diffuse it in a room, or mix a roller to dab on your wrists (diluted in a carrier oil).

Art gallery afternoon · Lavender, Geranium, Ylang Ylang blend

Six drops of cool, soft lavender, five drops of fresh pink geranium, three drops of sweet ylang ylang and two drops of sandalwood, warm like a wooden picture frame. An artsy, gentle scent for afternoons at an exhibition: walk slowly, read every placard, stay for the last room. Mix the sixteen drops in a roller bottle; add more geranium if you want it fresher.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing); geranium (green and rosy, fresh and balanced); ylang ylang (rich, creamy, tropical and sweetly floral) 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.
