the season just turned

4 oils · Woody · Resinous & sweet · Warm spice · code BL-2729


Patchouli and cedarwood in equal parts, damp earth meeting dry wood, rustic like a wooden house in the countryside; myrrh and cinnamon, one drop each, bring depth and warm spice. Good for living rooms full of wooden furniture, altar rooms and cold, rainy evenings. Use it after dinner; for a lighter scent, leave out the myrrh.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Cinnamon (spicy-sweet, hot and warm) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.

What remains. Patchouli (like damp earth and dark wood, deeply sweet); cedarwood (dry and warm, like a wooden chest and pencil shavings); myrrh (bittersweet, resinous, deep and classic) sink in and linger after the diffuser is off.


Method

Safety

Skin irritant

Cinnamon can irritate skin — dilute well and patch-test on a small area first.

Do not use for children under 6, during pregnancy, or if you have a health condition without asking a professional first. Never ingest essential oils; keep them out of reach of children and pets.


FAQ

How do I use the season just turned in a diffuser?
Add Patchouli 2 · Cedarwood 2 · Myrrh 1 · Cinnamon 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 sandalwood or cypress — same woody family. The blend will shift a little: sandalwood is creamy, smooth and long-lasting.
When is the best time to use the season just turned?
Made for chilly days, cold rain, Tet (the Lunar New Year) and Christmas; use it in the living room or bedroom.
