How do I use shoulders down, workday done in a diffuser?

Add Palmarosa 6 · Patchouli 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 palmarosa?

Swap palmarosa for lavender or geranium — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: lavender is floral-herbal, clean and soothing.

When is the best time to use shoulders down, workday done?

Diffuse it in a room, or mix a roller to dab on your wrists (diluted in a carrier oil).

Shoulders down, workday done · Palmarosa, Patchouli blend

Fifteen drops of palmarosa, fresh like just-cut grass, and five drops of patchouli adding a warm, deep earthy base. Pleasant and relaxing, like shrugging a heavy load off your shoulders after work. Kick off your shoes; the day is over. Premix the 20-drop batch; use 4 drops in the diffuser, or dilute it with carrier oil to massage gently into your neck and shoulders.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Palmarosa (sweet and grassy with a rosy note) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.

What remains. Patchouli (like damp earth and dark wood, deeply sweet) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.
