Bad luck day, take five · Black Tea, Rosewood, Sweet Orange blend

Warm black tea, floral rosewood, sweet orange and a touch of earthy patchouli.

On an unlucky day, take a little break: warm black tea, rosewood fragrant like flowers, cheerful sweet orange, and a single drop of earthy patchouli to keep you steady. Nice for the living room, the bedroom in the evening or your own quiet corner. Start the diffuser, make a warm drink and write down one small thing that still went okay today.

How it unfolds

On opening. Sweet orange (ripe, sweet, cheerful and round) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Black tea (steeped, warm and slightly malty); rosewood (sweet, floral and woody, soft and rosy) form the body of the scent and stay longest in the room.

What remains. Patchouli (like damp earth and dark wood, deeply sweet) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.
