blanket burrito

5 oils · Citrus · Floral · Woody · Resinous & sweet · code BL-0619


Warm and cozy like burrowing into your blankets on a winter night. Twenty drops of Roman chamomile make a base of honeyed sweet apple; frankincense, lavender and patchouli add warm resin, purple flowers and damp earth, and mandarin sprinkles in juicy sweetness. It's a big batch, good for many nights in a row. Use 5 drops of the mix each time, and run the diffuser for 30 minutes before bed.

How it unfolds

On opening. Mandarin (gently sweet, softer than orange) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Roman chamomile (like ripe apple and dry hay, soft and mellow); lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing) form the body of the scent and stay longest in the room.

What remains. Frankincense (resinous with a light lemony note, deep and still); patchouli (like damp earth and dark wood, deeply sweet) sink in and linger after the diffuser is off.
