How do I use the “clear head, rainy afternoon” blend in a diffuser?

Add Eucalyptus 2 · Lavender 2 · Myrrh 1 · Lemon 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 eucalyptus?

Swap eucalyptus for rosemary or tea tree — same herbal family. The blend will shift a little: rosemary is cool, green, herbal and invigorating.

When does the “clear head, rainy afternoon” blend work best?

Use it in closed rooms, on humid days, in monsoon season or after long hours of air conditioning; diffuse in short 20 to 30 minute runs.

Clear head, rainy afternoon · Eucalyptus blend

A rainy afternoon, a slightly heavy head, and you need a scent that is both airy and gentle. Eucalyptus and lavender stand level in the main layer, myrrh adds a warm resin-wood base, and lemon sprinkles on a bit of brightness. Good for a home office late in the afternoon or a bedroom early in the evening. Run the diffuser for about 30 minutes while doing light tasks like reading email or sorting papers.

How it unfolds

On opening. Eucalyptus (strong, cool and wide open); lemon (fresh, bright and clean) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.

What remains. Myrrh (bittersweet, resinous, deep and classic) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.
