our usual corner table

2 oils · Floral · Woody · code BL-1663


A minimalist recipe with real depth: patchouli, damp and earthy like the wooden floor of an old cafe, then a single drop of ylang ylang, sweet enough to soften the whole space. It recalls those familiar meeting spots you never get tired of. Great for a reading nook or an afternoon desk; if you're new to patchouli, try a 1:1 ratio first and build up from there.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Ylang ylang (rich, creamy, tropical and sweetly floral) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.

What remains. Patchouli (like damp earth and dark wood, deeply sweet) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.


Method

Diffuser
Patchouli 2 · Ylang Ylang 1 drops in 200–300 ml of water. Run for 30–60 minutes, then take a break.
10 ml roller
Patchouli 3 · Ylang Ylang 2 drops, then top up with a carrier oil (jojoba or sweet almond). Dab on wrists and the back of the neck.
50 ml room spray
Patchouli 20 · Ylang Ylang 10 drops + 1 teaspoon of food-grade alcohol, then top up with distilled water. Shake before spraying.

Safety

Do not use for children under 6, during pregnancy, or if you have a health condition without asking a professional first. Never ingest essential oils; keep them out of reach of children and pets.


FAQ

How do I use our usual corner table in a diffuser?
Add Patchouli 2 · Ylang Ylang 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 patchouli?
Swap patchouli for cedarwood or sandalwood — 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 our usual corner table?
Made for date nights, candlelit dinners and private spaces; switch it on 15 minutes before anyone arrives.
