How do I use horizontal all afternoon in a diffuser?

Add Lavender 4 · Clary Sage 3 · Patchouli 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 ylang ylang — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: geranium is green and rosy, fresh and balanced.

When is the best time to use horizontal all afternoon?

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.

Horizontal all afternoon · Lavender, Clary Sage, Patchouli blend

Doing nothing, lying still for hours. Four drops of lavender open with clean purple flowers, clary sage adds sweet, slightly musky herb, and patchouli settles into a warm, damp earthy layer. The whole thing is deep, smooth and very easy to doze off to. Perfect for the bedroom on a rainy afternoon, a light blanket pulled up to your chest. If patchouli clings too much, cut it to one drop for an airier scent.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing); clary sage (sweet, herbal, slightly musky and unhurried) form the body of the scent and stay longest in the room.

What remains. Patchouli (like damp earth and dark wood, deeply sweet) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.
