Add White Tea 3 · Bergamot 2 · Frankincense 1 · Jasmine 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.

Meditate without nodding off · White Tea, Bergamot, Frankincense blend

Bergamot keeps you alert, deep frankincense, a touch of jasmine; calm but not drowsy.

Calm, not drowsy: bergamot keeps your head clear, frankincense adds resinous wood depth, a single drop of jasmine brings softness, and white tea forms a clean base. Great for early morning meditation sessions or slow, unhurried reading. If you tend to get sleepy while sitting, add one more drop of bergamot and sit closer to the window.

How it unfolds

On opening. Bergamot (light citrus with a floral edge, Earl Grey style) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. White tea (light and clean with a floral whisper); jasmine (white-floral, sweet, heady and alluring) form the body of the scent and stay longest in the room.

What remains. Frankincense (resinous with a light lemony note, deep and still) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.
