How it unfolds

On opening. Mandarin (gently sweet, softer than orange); eucalyptus radiata (gently cool, softer than classic eucalyptus); spearmint (sweet and cool, softer than peppermint, with a hint of chewing gum) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing) 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.

FAQ

How do I use light as air in a diffuser?
Add Lavender 3 · Mandarin 3 · Eucalyptus Radiata 2 · Spearmint 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 light as air?
Use it when guests are coming, on weekends, after tidying the house, or whenever you want a little good mood.
