How do I use porch at dusk in a diffuser?

Add Cinnamon 3 · Juniper 3 · Fennel 2 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 cinnamon?

Swap cinnamon for coriander or pink pepper — same warm spice family. The blend will shift a little: coriander is warm and seedy, lightly sweet, with a whisper of spice.

When is the best time to use porch at dusk?

Use it while meditating, doing yoga, journaling, or simply sitting still for 10 minutes without your phone.

Porch at dusk · Cinnamon, Juniper, Fennel blend

Name: porch at dusk
Yield: 8 drops
Ingredients: 3 drops Cinnamon essential oil; 3 drops Juniper essential oil; 2 drops Fennel essential oil

Back in the countryside, sitting on the porch with a pot of tea and a plate of cinnamon-spiced sweets. Cinnamon and juniper, three drops each, make a pair of sweet spice and green resin, and two drops of fennel add an unusual sweet, sharp note. Great for a living room in the cold season or the days leading up to Tet, the Lunar New Year. Cinnamon is quite strong; in a small room, reduce it to two drops.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Cinnamon (spicy-sweet, hot and warm); juniper (green and berry-like, with clean resinous wood); fennel (sweet and herbal with a little anise) form the body of the scent and stay 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.

Safety

Skin irritant

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