deep as an old forest

4 oils · Floral · Woody · code BL-0975


Deep as an ancient forest, with old trees draped in moss. Three drops of sandalwood lay a warm, creamy wood base, lavender adds gentle herbs, and juniper and cedarwood, one drop each, bring a green resinous streak and dry wood. Lovely for a bedroom or reading room in the rainy season. For a more noticeable forest feel, raise juniper to two drops.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing); juniper (green and berry-like, with clean resinous wood) form the body of the scent and stay longest in the room.

What remains. Sandalwood (creamy, smooth and long-lasting); 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 deep as an old forest in a diffuser?
Add Sandalwood 3 · Lavender 2 · Juniper 1 · Cedarwood 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 sandalwood?
Swap sandalwood for patchouli or cypress — same woody family. The blend will shift a little: patchouli is like damp earth and dark wood, deeply sweet.
When is the best time to use deep as an old forest?
Use it while meditating, doing yoga, journaling, or simply sitting still for 10 minutes without your phone.
