How do I use quiet winter type in a diffuser?

Add Sandalwood 3 · Rosemary 3 · Patchouli 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 sandalwood?

Swap sandalwood for cedarwood or cypress — 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 quiet winter type?

Made for chilly days, cold rain, Tet (the Lunar New Year) and Christmas; use it in the living room or bedroom.

Quiet winter type · Sandalwood, Rosemary, Patchouli blend

Sandalwood and rosemary sit equally, smooth warm wood meeting sharp green herbs; patchouli lines the base with thick, damp earth. A calm, reserved scent, the kind that speaks softly, for the home office or study on grey winter days. Start the diffuser as you begin reading or writing; for a softer version, cut rosemary to 4 drops.

How it unfolds

On opening. Rosemary (cool, green, herbal and invigorating) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

What remains. Sandalwood (creamy, smooth and long-lasting); patchouli (like damp earth and dark wood, deeply sweet) sink in and linger after the diffuser is off.
