How do I use the “rooftop chill with pomelo” blend in a diffuser?

Add White Tea 3 · Citronella 2 · Geranium 1 · Pomelo 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 white tea?

Swap white tea for black tea or green tea — same tea family. The blend will shift a little: black tea is steeped, warm and slightly malty.

When does the “rooftop chill with pomelo” blend work best?

Diffuse it on the porch, the balcony or in a living room with the doors open in the early evening, when you want to sit outside a little longer.

Rooftop chill with pomelo · White Tea blend

Citronella, geranium, pomelo peel; green and cool, still garden-fragrant.

Chilling on the rooftop after a long day: citronella deep with grass, geranium green and floral, pomelo peel fresh and cool, and white tea softening the whole blend. It smells like a little garden on the roof, potted plants, string lights and a wide-open breeze. Place the diffuser near your chair for about 30 minutes; when it is windy, add a drop of citronella so the scent lingers.

How it unfolds

On opening. Citronella (strong, green and slightly lemony); pomelo (bittersweet and fragrant, very Vietnamese) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. White tea (light and clean with a floral whisper); 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.
