How do I use iced coffee on the porch in a diffuser?

Add Coffee 3 · Lemon 2 · Ylang Ylang 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.

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.

Iced coffee on the porch · Coffee, Lemon, Ylang Ylang blend

Sitting on the balcony with an iced milk coffee, watching the street go by. Rich coffee leads, lemon pops up with a fresh tang that opens the scent up, and one drop of ylang-ylang adds a sweet, creamy floral note like condensed milk. A fun, slightly unusual blend, perfect for a balcony or a window corner in the morning. Put the diffuser somewhere a bit sheltered from the wind so the scent doesn't blow away too fast.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lemon (fresh, bright and clean) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Ylang ylang (rich, creamy, tropical and sweetly floral) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.

What remains. Coffee (dark-roasted and warm) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.
