campfire night in Moc Chau

4 oils · Woody · Warm spice · code BL-3207


Blazing warm wood and root, a spicy hint of anise like campfire smoke.

A campfire night in Moc Chau, a highland plateau in northern Vietnam: smilax, po mu and cedarwood in equal parts, blazing warm wood and root, with a drop of star anise spicy like campfire smoke. Great for the living room on cold nights, hanging out with friends or a balcony in winter. Start the diffuser, wrap up in a blanket and roast some sweet potatoes; use less star anise in a small room.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Star anise (sweet and warm, reminiscent of pho broth and Tet sweets) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.

What remains. Smilax (warm, earthy and rooty, lightly sweet and rustic); Po Mu (sweet, resinous and slightly spicy, a very grounded Vietnamese wood); cedarwood (dry and warm, like a wooden chest and pencil shavings) sink in and linger after the diffuser is off.

FAQ

How do I use campfire night in Moc Chau in a diffuser?
Add Smilax 2 · Po Mu 2 · Cedarwood 2 · Star Anise 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 smilax?
Swap smilax for sandalwood or patchouli — same woody family. The blend will shift a little: sandalwood is creamy, smooth and long-lasting.
When is the best time to use campfire night in Moc Chau?
Made for chilly days, cold rain, Tet (the Lunar New Year) and Christmas; use it in the living room or bedroom.
