How do I use cold-water face splash in a diffuser?

Add Rosewood 5 · Peppermint 3 · Frankincense 2 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 rosewood?

Swap rosewood for cedarwood or sandalwood — same woody family. The blend will shift a little: cedarwood is dry and warm, like a wooden chest and pencil shavings.

When is the best time to use cold-water face splash?

Use it at the end of the day, on weekends, while reading or right after a shower — whenever you want everything to slow down a beat.

Cold-water face splash · Rosewood, Peppermint, Frankincense blend

Five drops of rosewood open with soft, lightly sweet floral wood; three drops of peppermint blow in a cool jolt that feels like splashing your face with cold water, while frankincense keeps a warm base. Good for mid-afternoon, when your eyelids get heavy and the to-do list is still long. Run it by your desk for about 15 minutes, then pause. For an even sharper wake-up, add one drop of peppermint next time.

How it unfolds

On opening. Peppermint (cool, sharp and clean) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Rosewood (sweet, floral and woody, soft and rosy) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.

What remains. Frankincense (resinous with a light lemony note, deep and still) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.
