How do I use everything in its place in a diffuser?

Add Lemon 3 · Rosemary 3 · Cedarwood 1 · Clary Sage 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 lemon?

Swap lemon for sweet orange or bergamot — same citrus family. The blend will shift a little: sweet orange is ripe, sweet, cheerful and round.

When is the best time to use everything in its place?

Run it at your desk or study corner in cycles of 30 minutes on, 30 minutes off, so your nose does not tune the scent out.

Everything in its place · Lemon, Rosemary, Cedarwood blend

Everything in its proper place, nothing left in a mess. Lemon and rosemary, ten drops each, make a very clean pair of fresh tang and sharp green, while cedarwood and clary sage, two drops each, keep a base of dry wood and sweet herbs. Mix these twenty-four drops into a small bottle and use five at a time. Great for an office, a study desk, or even while sorting paperwork at home.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lemon (fresh, bright and clean); rosemary (cool, green, herbal and invigorating) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Clary sage (sweet, herbal, slightly musky and unhurried) 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.
