How do I use scent in every corner in a diffuser?

Add Bergamot 3 · Ylang Ylang 3 · Lemongrass 3 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 bergamot?

Swap bergamot for lemon or sweet orange — same citrus family. The blend will shift a little: lemon is fresh, bright and clean.

When is the best time to use scent in every corner?

Use it after cooking or cleaning, in the bathroom, near the shoe cabinet, or in rooms shared with pets.

Scent in every corner · Bergamot, Ylang Ylang, Lemongrass blend

Spreading through the whole house, from the living room to the hallway. Bergamot, ylang-ylang and lemongrass split three drops each: elegant citrus, sweet yellow blossom and fresh greens. A scent that's fresh with a bit of flair. Put the diffuser in a central spot in the house, near the airflow from a fan; ylang-ylang is a bit strong, so you can use 1 drop less.

How it unfolds

On opening. Bergamot (light citrus with a floral edge, Earl Grey style); lemongrass (fresh, green and clean) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Ylang ylang (rich, creamy, tropical and sweetly floral) forms the body of the scent and stays 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.

Safety

Photosensitizing Skin irritant

Bergamot can make skin sensitive to sunlight when applied topically — avoid sun and tanning beds for 12 hours after applying.

Lemongrass can irritate skin — dilute well and patch-test on a small area first.

Do not use for children under 6, during pregnancy, or if you have a health condition without asking a professional first. Never ingest essential oils; keep them out of reach of children and pets.
