How do I use friends dropping in in a diffuser?

Add Coriander 2 · Cypress 2 · Lemongrass 1 · Lavender 1 · Tea Tree 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 coriander?

Swap coriander for cinnamon or pink pepper — same warm spice family. The blend will shift a little: cinnamon is spicy-sweet, hot and warm.

When is the best time to use friends dropping in?

Use it after cooking or cleaning, in the bathroom, near the shoe cabinet, or in rooms shared with pets.

Friends dropping in · Coriander, Cypress, Lemongrass blend

Guests always ask: wait, why does it smell so good in here? The secret is coriander, a warm, sweet-spicy note few people expect, alongside the green wood of cypress; lemongrass and lavender weave into the middle, while tea tree keeps the base clean. The entryway, living room or home office can all wear this scent. Take 5–6 drops each time for the diffuser, and switch it on a little before guests arrive.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lemongrass (fresh, green and clean); tea tree (green, medicinal and clean) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Coriander (warm and seedy, lightly sweet, with a whisper of spice); cypress (fresh, dry and clean like conifer wood); lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing) 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.

Safety

Skin irritant

Lemongrass can irritate skin — dilute well and patch-test on a small area first.

Do not use for children under 6, during pregnancy, or if you have a health condition without asking a professional first. Never ingest essential oils; keep them out of reach of children and pets.
