How do I use soft as an apology in a diffuser?

Add Lavender 2 · Roman Chamomile 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 lavender?

Swap lavender for geranium or ylang ylang — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: geranium is green and rosy, fresh and balanced.

When is the best time to use soft as an apology?

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.

Soft as an apology · Lavender, Roman Chamomile blend

Just three drops, gentle as a heartfelt apology. Lavender opens soft and soothing, and Roman chamomile follows with a mellow, sweet apple note. A calming scent for the bedroom or living room when the air needs mending after an argument. Run a mini diffuser for 20 minutes; for larger rooms, keep the 2:1 ratio and scale up.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing); Roman chamomile (like ripe apple and dry hay, soft and mellow) 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.
