How do I use standing in the open fridge in a diffuser?

Add Peppermint 3 · Eucalyptus 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 peppermint?

Swap peppermint for spearmint — same minty family. The blend will shift a little: spearmint is sweet and cool, softer than peppermint, with a hint of chewing gum.

When is the best time to use standing in the open fridge?

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.

Standing in the open fridge · Peppermint, Eucalyptus blend

Peppermint and eucalyptus: the classic cooling duo, exactly like opening the fridge and standing there for a few seconds in the middle of a summer noon. Tingly and airy with no sweetness at all. Good for closed rooms, a car parked in the sun, or a study corner at the hottest hour. Short 15-minute rounds are enough, because both oils are quite strong.

How it unfolds

On opening. Peppermint (cool, sharp and clean); eucalyptus (strong, cool and wide open) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

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.
