Childhood mint candy · Spearmint, Vanilla blend

The scent of the mint candy you ate as a schoolkid: two drops of spearmint, sweet and cool, and one drop of vanilla, warm and sugary. Surprisingly simple, yet instantly nostalgic. It fits perfectly on a desk, in a small bedroom or in the car. For bigger rooms, double it and keep the 2:1 ratio; if you want that extra-cool candy feel, add 1 drop of regular peppermint.

How it unfolds

On opening. Spearmint (sweet and cool, softer than peppermint, with a hint of chewing gum) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

What remains. Vanilla (creamy, sweet and cozy) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.
