How do I use just fried fish in a diffuser?

Add Basil 4 · Lemongrass 4 · Sweet Orange 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.

Just fried fish · Basil, Lemongrass, Sweet Orange blend

You just fried some fish, and the fishy smell is drifting through the whole house. Basil and lemongrass stand side by side, sweet-spicy herbs and fresh greens, like a basket of fresh herbs next to the stove, while sweet orange adds a bit of warmth. Great for the kitchen and living room after cooking. Run the diffuser along with the exhaust fan for at least 20 minutes.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lemongrass (fresh, green and clean); sweet orange (ripe, sweet, cheerful and round) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Basil (sweet and green with a hint of anise) forms the body of the scent and stays 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.
