How do I use self-care for a sniffly day in a diffuser?

Add Eucalyptus 3 · Rosemary 3 · Roman Chamomile 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 eucalyptus?

Swap eucalyptus for tea tree or clary sage — same herbal family. The blend will shift a little: tea tree is green, medicinal and clean.

When is the best time to use self-care for a sniffly day?

Use it in closed rooms, on humid days, in monsoon season or after long hours of air conditioning — diffuse in short 20–30 minute runs.

Self-care for a sniffly day · Eucalyptus, Rosemary, Roman Chamomile blend

A sniffly day calls for self-care done properly. Eucalyptus and rosemary stand side by side, clear and cool with green herbs, while Roman chamomile softens the finish with a gentle, apple-like sweetness. Great for the bedroom, next to a mug of honey ginger tea. Use 5 drops in the diffuser each time; going to bed early is still the most important secret.

How it unfolds

On opening. Eucalyptus (strong, cool and wide open); rosemary (cool, green, herbal and invigorating) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Roman chamomile (like ripe apple and dry hay, soft and mellow) 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.
