How do I use shaved ice at noon in a diffuser?

Add Lime 3 · Lavender 3 · Peppermint 1 · Lemon 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 lime?

Swap lime for sweet orange or bergamot — same citrus family. The blend will shift a little: sweet orange is ripe, sweet, cheerful and round.

When is the best time to use shaved ice at noon?

Use it at midday, in hot rooms, or after coming in from outside; you can also mix a room spray for a quick cool-down.

Shaved ice at noon · Lime, Lavender, Peppermint blend

Lime and lavender sit equally, green lime peel meeting soft florals; peppermint and lemon follow, cool tingle and bright tartness like a cup of salted lime shaved ice. Good for the living room or home office at summer noon. Mix a bottle ahead and take 5 drops for the diffuser each time; for a cooler version, add 2 drops of peppermint.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lime (zesty, gently tart and very fresh); peppermint (cool, sharp and clean); lemon (fresh, bright and clean) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing) 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.
