How do I use taking over the couch in a diffuser?

Add Eucalyptus 2 · Lavender 2 · Spearmint 2 · Ylang Ylang 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 eucalyptus?

Swap eucalyptus for rosemary or tea tree — same herbal family. The blend will shift a little: rosemary is cool, green, herbal and invigorating.

When is the best time to use taking over the couch?

Use it at the end of the day, on weekends, while reading or right after a shower — whenever you want everything to slow down a beat.

Taking over the couch · Eucalyptus, Lavender, Spearmint blend

The couch is all yours today. Eucalyptus, lavender and spearmint share equal drops: icy cool, clean, and cool-sweet like mint candy, while one drop of ylang-ylang adds sweet yellow flowers to take the chill off. The scent is fresh yet soft, perfect for the living room on a hot day. Put the diffuser next to the couch, hug a pillow and start that movie you saved ages ago.

How it unfolds

On opening. Eucalyptus (strong, cool and wide open); spearmint (sweet and cool, softer than peppermint, with a hint of chewing gum) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. 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.
