How do I use halfway up the mountain in a diffuser?

Add Juniper 3 · Sandalwood 2 · Cypress 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 juniper?

Swap juniper for cedarwood or patchouli — same woody family. The blend will shift a little: cedarwood is dry and warm, like a wooden chest and pencil shavings.

When is the best time to use halfway up the mountain?

Use it while meditating, doing yoga, journaling, or simply sitting still for 10 minutes without your phone.

Halfway up the mountain · Juniper, Sandalwood, Cypress blend

Halfway up, you stop to rest and look down at the valley. Juniper opens fresh and green like mountain conifers, sandalwood lays a smooth wood base, and cypress adds a cool rush like wind on a hillside. Great for a home office in the afternoon, when you need a bit of open air. For extra warmth in the cold season, add a drop of frankincense.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Juniper (green and berry-like, with clean resinous wood); cypress (fresh, dry and clean like conifer wood) 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.
