How do I use drifting through the afternoon in a diffuser?

Add Jasmine 4 · Patchouli 4 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 jasmine?

Swap jasmine for lavender or geranium — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: lavender is floral-herbal, clean and soothing.

When is the best time to use drifting through the afternoon?

Diffuse it in a room, or mix a roller to dab on your wrists (diluted in a carrier oil).

Drifting through the afternoon · Jasmine, Patchouli blend

Jasmine and patchouli in nearly equal parts, one sweet, white and floating, the other warm, damp earth like an afternoon of light drizzle. A scent that slows your mind down, dreamy and pleasant. Perfect for afternoons with no plans, lying around reading or listening to music. Premix the 22-drop batch; wear it in a roller bottle, or use 4 drops in the diffuser.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Jasmine (white-floral, sweet, heady and alluring) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.

What remains. Patchouli (like damp earth and dark wood, deeply sweet) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.
