rug that time forgot

2 oils · Herbal · Resinous & sweet · code BL-2458


A rug that hasn't been washed for ages, with a musty smell hanging around. Frankincense and rosemary split evenly: deep, warm resin and green, camphor-like herbs, making a scent that's clean yet warm. Vacuum the rug, sprinkle some baking soda and leave it overnight, vacuum again in the morning, then turn on the diffuser. Frankincense helps the scent last longer on fabric.

How it unfolds

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

What remains. Frankincense (resinous with a light lemony note, deep and still) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.
