soup pot on a rainy afternoon

2 oils · Herbal · code BL-2750


Two herbs in equal parts: warm, dry thyme and sharp green rosemary, just like the herb bundle dropped into a soup pot. Tidy and clean yet still warm, good for the kitchen and dining room on cold, rainy afternoons. When the soup starts to simmer, the diffuser should be running too; for bigger rooms double it, and scent-sensitive folks can use 1 drop of each.

How it unfolds

On opening. Rosemary (cool, green, herbal and invigorating) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Thyme (warm, dry and herbal with a touch of spice) 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.

Safety

Skin irritant

Thyme can irritate skin — dilute well and patch-test on a small area first.

Do not use for children under 6, during pregnancy, or if you have a health condition without asking a professional first. Never ingest essential oils; keep them out of reach of children and pets.


FAQ

How do I use soup pot on a rainy afternoon in a diffuser?
Add Thyme 2 · Rosemary 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 thyme?
Swap thyme for eucalyptus or tea tree — same herbal family. The blend will shift a little: eucalyptus is strong, cool and wide open.
When is the best time to use soup pot on a rainy afternoon?
Made for chilly days, cold rain, Tet (the Lunar New Year) and Christmas; use it in the living room or bedroom.
