old pillow, rain outside

3 oils · Floral · Woody · code BL-0309


The old pillow is totally flat, but you can't bear to throw it out. Sandalwood, rosewood and lavender share equal drops: smooth, creamy wood, slightly spicy floral wood and clean purple herbs. The scent is warm, familiar and as comfy as your usual spot, perfect for the bedroom or a reading nook. The numbers above are a bottle-mixing ratio; use 2 drops of each per use, and start the diffuser 15 minutes before lying down.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Rosewood (sweet, floral and woody, soft and rosy); lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing) form the body of the scent and stay longest in the room.

What remains. Sandalwood (creamy, smooth and long-lasting) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.

FAQ

How do I use old pillow, rain outside in a diffuser?
Add Sandalwood 3 · Rosewood 3 · Lavender 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 sandalwood?
Swap sandalwood for cedarwood or patchouli — same woody family. The blend will shift a little: cedarwood is dry and warm, like a wooden chest and pencil shavings.
When is the best time to use old pillow, rain outside?
Use it at the end of the day, on weekends, while reading or right after a shower — whenever you want everything to slow down a beat.
