How do I use lying on a cloud in a diffuser?

Add Blue Chamomile 5 · Ylang Ylang 3 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 blue chamomile?

Swap blue chamomile for lavender or geranium — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: lavender is floral-herbal, clean and soothing.

When is the best time to use lying on a cloud?

Run the diffuser for 20–30 minutes before bed with the door closed, then switch it off or set a timer when you get into bed.

Lying on a cloud · Blue Chamomile, Ylang Ylang blend

Blue chamomile opens rich and sweet, a little warm like sun-dried hay, and ylang-ylang lays a creamy, silky layer of yellow flowers on top. Just two notes, yet the scent is thick and soft, almost touchable. It suits a warm-toned bedroom piled with fluffy pillows. Both oils are fairly intense, so for a room under 15 m², use 2 drops of blue chamomile and 1 drop of ylang-ylang.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Blue chamomile (deeply herbal, bittersweet and a little smoky); ylang ylang (rich, creamy, tropical and sweetly floral) form the body of the scent and stay 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.
