How do I use pretty without trying in a diffuser?

Add Lavender 3 · Blue Chamomile 2 · Clary Sage 2 · Geranium 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 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 pretty without trying?

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.

Pretty without trying · Lavender, Blue Chamomile, Clary Sage blend

Naturally pretty, no effort required. Six drops of lavender lead with clean purple flowers, blue chamomile adds warm dried herbs, clary sage is sweet and slightly musky, and geranium closes with green rose. Good for the vanity in the morning or the bedroom at night. The scent is fairly round; use the recipe as is for a room of 15 to 20 m².

How it unfolds

As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing); blue chamomile (deeply herbal, bittersweet and a little smoky); clary sage (sweet, herbal, slightly musky and unhurried); geranium (green and rosy, fresh and balanced) 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.
