Soaking till my fingers prune · Palmarosa, Lavender, Ylang Ylang blend

Soaking so long your fingertips go all wrinkly. Palmarosa leads with a fresh rose-meets-lemongrass scent, lavender softens it, and ylang-ylang adds sweet, creamy yellow flowers. A fresh, soft floral scent, perfect for a bathroom with a tub. Place the diffuser outside the door and turn it on before running the water; a small bathroom only needs 2, 1 and 1 drops to smell lovely.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Palmarosa (sweet and grassy with a rosy note); lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing); ylang ylang (rich, creamy, tropical and sweetly floral) form the body of the scent and stay 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.
