How do I use baking without burning in a diffuser?

Add Sweet Orange 4 · Frankincense 2 · Ylang Ylang 2 · Cedarwood 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 sweet orange?

Swap sweet orange for lemon or bergamot — same citrus family. The blend will shift a little: lemon is fresh, bright and clean.

When is the best time to use baking without burning?

Use it when guests are coming, on weekends, after tidying the house, or whenever you want a little good mood.

Baking without burning · Sweet Orange, Frankincense, Ylang Ylang blend

The batch of cakes comes out of the oven evenly golden, not a single burnt spot. Four drops of sweet orange are cheerful, while frankincense, ylang-ylang and cedarwood, two drops each, lay down a base of resin, yellow flowers and dry wood. A baking kitchen or the living room as the cakes are set on the table are good spots. For a more bakery-like scent, swap the cedarwood for 1 drop of vanilla.

How it unfolds

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

As it settles. Ylang ylang (rich, creamy, tropical and sweetly floral) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.

What remains. Frankincense (resinous with a light lemony note, deep and still); cedarwood (dry and warm, like a wooden chest and pencil shavings) sink in and linger after the diffuser is off.
