How do I use cafe corner at home in a diffuser?

Add Sweet Orange 3 · Basil 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 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 cafe corner at home?

Run it at your desk or study corner in cycles of 30 minutes on, 30 minutes off, so your nose does not tune the scent out.

Working at a cafe for a change of scenery. Three drops of sweet orange open fresh and cheerful like a glass of orange juice on the table, and a single drop of basil adds a light, peppery green note. At home, you can recreate your favorite cafe corner with this little blend. To make it feel even more like a coffee shop, add two drops of coffee essential oil.

How it unfolds

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

As it settles. Basil (sweet and green with a hint of anise) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.

What remains. With no woody or resin base note, this blend fades fairly quickly — switch it on again after 1–2 hours to keep the room scented.
