Monsoon night chill · Peppermint, Bergamot, Cypress blend

Three equal parts: peppermint cool like the monsoon wind slipping through the door, elegant bergamot and green, needle-woody cypress. A wide-awake scent, pretty unusual for the cold-season lineup, great for people who prefer crisp air over sweet warmth. Good for the home office or living room on monsoon nights. For more warmth, cut peppermint to 2 drops and add more cypress.

How it unfolds

On opening. Peppermint (cool, sharp and clean); bergamot (light citrus with a floral edge, Earl Grey style) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Cypress (fresh, dry and clean like conifer wood) 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.
