How do I use the hot-pot steam, upgraded in a diffuser?

Add Rosemary 4 · Roman Chamomile 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 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 hot-pot steam, upgraded?

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.

The hot-pot steam, upgraded · Rosemary, Roman Chamomile blend

Steaming over a pot of hot water like when you were a kid, only better-smelling. Rosemary leads with a green, slightly camphor-like herbal note, and Roman chamomile softens it with a gentle sweetness like ripe apples. Great for cold evenings. Add it to a bowl of hot, not rolling-boil, water and keep your face at a safe distance.

How it unfolds

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

As it settles. Roman chamomile (like ripe apple and dry hay, soft and mellow) forms the body of the scent and stays 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.
