How do I use feet up on the desk in a diffuser?

Add Lavender 3 · Cypress 3 · Ylang Ylang 2 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 Roman chamomile — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: geranium is green and rosy, fresh and balanced.

When is the best time to use feet up on the desk?

Use it at the end of the day, on weekends, while reading or right after a shower — whenever you want everything to slow down a beat.

Feet up on the desk, leaning back in your chair, no one watching. Lavender and cypress come in equal measure, clean purple herbs meeting green cypress wood, and ylang-ylang adds sweet yellow flowers. The scent is unhurried and comfortable, perfect for a home office or living room. For a woodier scent, cut ylang-ylang to 1 drop and run the diffuser on a light setting.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing); cypress (fresh, dry and clean like conifer wood); ylang ylang (rich, creamy, tropical and sweetly floral) form the body of the scent and stay longest in the room.

What remains. With no woody or resin base note, this blend fades fairly quickly — switch it on again after 1–2 hours to keep the room scented.
