How do I use the whole room is sniffling in a diffuser?

Add Eucalyptus 3 · Peppermint 2 · Tea Tree 1 · Holy Basil 1 · Lavender 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 clary sage — same herbal family. The blend will shift a little: rosemary is cool, green, herbal and invigorating.

When is the best time to use the whole room is sniffling?

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 whole room is sniffling · Eucalyptus, Peppermint, Tea Tree blend

Sometimes all you need is one really deep breath. Eucalyptus opens clear and cool, peppermint and tea tree keep each breath alert, holy basil adds a warm, spicy note a bit like clove, and a drop of lavender keeps it all gentle. Great for a break mid-shift or before a breathing session. Holy basil is quite noticeable, so you can cut it to 1 drop if you're new to it.

How it unfolds

On opening. Eucalyptus (strong, cool and wide open); peppermint (cool, sharp and clean); tea tree (green, medicinal and clean) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Holy basil (warm and spicy with a clove-like edge); lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing) 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.

Skin irritant

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