brain requesting shutdown

4 oils · Floral · Herbal · Woody · code BL-0119


Lavender opens clean, Roman chamomile and sandalwood follow as a smooth layer of floral tea and creamy wood, and one drop of clary sage adds a warm herbal note at the end. The scent is smooth and round, perfect for nights when your brain wants to switch off but can't find the button. Pair it with 5 minutes of neck and shoulder stretches while the diffuser starts to release its scent.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing); Roman chamomile (like ripe apple and dry hay, soft and mellow); clary sage (sweet, herbal, slightly musky and unhurried) 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.

FAQ

How do I use brain requesting shutdown in a diffuser?
Add Lavender 3 · Roman Chamomile 2 · Sandalwood 2 · Clary Sage 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 geranium or ylang ylang — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: geranium is green and rosy, fresh and balanced.
When is the best time to use brain requesting shutdown?
Run the diffuser for 20–30 minutes before bed with the door closed, then switch it off or set a timer when you get into bed.
