have mercy on the socks

2 oils · Woody · code BL-2445


The socks worked hard all day, so cut them a little slack. Pine and cedarwood split evenly: fresh resinous forest and warm dry wood, a clean, masculine pair of woody scents. Put 3 drops on a scented wood block in the laundry hamper or shoe cabinet. As for the socks themselves, straight into the washing machine tonight.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Pine (green and resinous, like a forest walk) 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.


Method

Diffuser
Pine 5 · Cedarwood 5 drops in 200–300 ml of water. Run for 30–60 minutes, then take a break.
10 ml roller
Pine 2 · Cedarwood 2 drops, then top up with a carrier oil (jojoba or sweet almond). Dab on wrists and the back of the neck.
50 ml room spray
Pine 15 · Cedarwood 15 drops + 1 teaspoon of food-grade alcohol, then top up with distilled water. Shake before spraying.
