sweet soup simmering

3 oils · Floral · Herbal · Warm spice · code BL-0410


A free afternoon, so you cook a pot of sweet bean soup, the Vietnamese dessert called che. Turmeric and rosemary sit side by side, warm earthy spice like the kitchen shelf meeting sharp green leaf, and lavender adds a soft purple herbal touch. The scent is rustic, unusual and cozy, good for the kitchen or dining room. With a small diffuser, use 2, 2, 1 drops; if turmeric is new to you, start with 1 drop and work up.

How it unfolds

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

As it settles. Turmeric (warm and earthy with a little spice); lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing) 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.
