How do I use the cleanliness quiz in a diffuser?

Add Rosemary 2 · Cypress 2 · Basil 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 rosemary?

Swap rosemary 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 the cleanliness quiz?

Use it after cooking or cleaning, in the bathroom, near the shoe cabinet, or in rooms shared with pets.

The cleanliness quiz · Rosemary, Cypress, Basil blend

Time to give your home a little cleanliness quiz. Rosemary and cypress split evenly, green herbs and fresh green wood, while a single drop of basil adds a sweet-spicy accent. This small recipe suits a mini diffuser. Walk around starting from the front door, looking and sniffing every corner; any spot that still smells gets handled first.

How it unfolds

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

As it settles. Cypress (fresh, dry and clean like conifer wood); basil (sweet and green with a hint of anise) 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.
