Quiet as 5am · Frankincense, Cypress, Sandalwood blend

Five in the morning, the sky not quite light, no traffic on the street yet. Three drops of frankincense open with warm, clear resin, cypress adds cool needles like early dew, and two drops of sandalwood keep a smooth wood base. Lovely for a meditation corner or a writing desk early in the day. Tip: pour a glass of warm water, start the diffuser, and sit still for five minutes before doing anything else.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Cypress (fresh, dry and clean like conifer wood) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.

What remains. Frankincense (resinous with a light lemony note, deep and still); sandalwood (creamy, smooth and long-lasting) sink in and linger after the diffuser is off.
