doing nothing after 10pm

5 oils · Citrus · Floral · Woody · code BL-0107


Just slow down a beat. Lavender and Roman chamomile lead softly, sweet orange lights up a bit of freshness, then ylang-ylang and sandalwood lay a base of sweet flowers and creamy wood. The five notes blend evenly with none sticking out, perfect for a medium bedroom. Turn on the diffuser, dim the lights, and listen to one instrumental track before getting into bed.

How it unfolds

On opening. Sweet orange (ripe, sweet, cheerful and round) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing); Roman chamomile (like ripe apple and dry hay, soft and mellow); ylang ylang (rich, creamy, tropical and sweetly floral) form the body of the scent and stay longest in the room.

What remains. Sandalwood (creamy, smooth and long-lasting) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.

FAQ

How do I use doing nothing after 10pm in a diffuser?
Add Lavender 3 · Roman Chamomile 2 · Ylang Ylang 1 · Sweet Orange 1 · Sandalwood 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 lavender?
Swap lavender for geranium or rose — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: geranium is green and rosy, fresh and balanced.
When is the best time to use doing nothing after 10pm?
Run the diffuser for 20–30 minutes before bed with the door closed, then switch it off or set a timer when you get into bed.
