How do I use tent by the creek in a diffuser?

Add Patchouli 4 · Pine 3 · Eucalyptus 2 · Spearmint 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 patchouli?

Swap patchouli for cedarwood or sandalwood — same woody family. The blend will shift a little: cedarwood is dry and warm, like a wooden chest and pencil shavings.

When is the best time to use tent by the creek?

Use it in closed rooms, on humid days, in monsoon season or after long hours of air conditioning — diffuse in short 20–30 minute runs.

Tent by the creek · Patchouli, Pine, Eucalyptus blend

Four drops of patchouli smell like damp creek banks, three drops of pine bring forest resin, two drops of eucalyptus add cool freshness, and a drop of spearmint tastes sweet and cool like stream water. Wild and clean, it brings camping vibes indoors. Use ten drops in a diffuser; on an actual camping trip, put a few drops on a cloth and hang it inside your tent.

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. Pine (green and resinous, like a forest walk) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.

What remains. Patchouli (like damp earth and dark wood, deeply sweet) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.
