Da Lat road trip

3 oils · Citrus · Woody · code BL-1497


The road up to Da Lat, with pine forests on both sides. Eight drops of cedarwood bring clean, dry wood, four drops of pine add green resin, and two drops of bergamot are fresh and elegant like early highland sunshine. This scent suits the living room on chilly days, or the car on long trips. In a small room, cut the cedarwood to 5; for a cooler feel, add 1 drop of peppermint.

How it unfolds

On opening. Bergamot (light citrus with a floral edge, Earl Grey style) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Pine (green and resinous, like a forest walk) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.

What remains. Cedarwood (dry and warm, like a wooden chest and pencil shavings) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.
