How do I use no summer grumpiness in a diffuser?

Add Lavender 3 · Frankincense 1 · Palmarosa 1 · Patchouli 1 · Geranium 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.

What can I use instead of lavender?

Swap lavender for ylang ylang or Roman chamomile — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: ylang ylang is rich, creamy, tropical and sweetly floral.

When is the best time to use no summer grumpiness?

Use it at midday, in hot rooms, or after coming in from outside; you can also mix a room spray for a quick cool-down.

No summer grumpiness · Lavender, Frankincense, Palmarosa blend

Lavender opens soft and soothing; frankincense, palmarosa and patchouli split the back half evenly, resin, rosy grass and damp earth; geranium adds green rose. A calm, mellow scent for hot days when tempers run short. Good for the bedroom or home office. Start the diffuser when you notice yourself getting irritated; for a lighter version, use less patchouli.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing); palmarosa (sweet and grassy with a rosy note); geranium (green and rosy, fresh and balanced) form the body of the scent and stay longest in the room.

What remains. Frankincense (resinous with a light lemony note, deep and still); patchouli (like damp earth and dark wood, deeply sweet) sink in and linger after the diffuser is off.
