Neighbor's apple pie · Sweet Orange, Lavender, Thyme blend

Sweet orange makes up half, opening sweet, fresh and bright; lavender and thyme split the middle, soft florals meeting dry herbs; vanilla lines the bottom with warm sweetness. It smells like someone's kitchen just baked a pie, drifting in through the window. A big-batch recipe to mix ahead; each time, take 5–6 drops for the living room diffuser.

How it unfolds

On opening. Sweet orange (ripe, sweet, cheerful and round) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing); thyme (warm, dry and herbal with a touch of spice) form the body of the scent and stay longest in the room.

What remains. Vanilla (creamy, sweet and cozy) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.

Skin irritant

Thyme can irritate skin — dilute well and patch-test on a small area first.
