Tipsy without the wine · Frankincense, Patchouli, Ylang Ylang blend

Frankincense opens deep and warm, while patchouli and ylang-ylang follow equally, damp earth meeting sensual sweet florals, enough to leave you floaty like after a sip of red wine. Good for a couple's bedroom on cold-season weekend evenings. Run the diffuser for 20 minutes, then switch it off; ylang-ylang is intense, so small rooms need just 1 drop.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Ylang ylang (rich, creamy, tropical and sweetly floral) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.

What remains. Frankincense (resinous with a light lemony note, deep and still); patchouli (like damp earth and dark wood, deeply sweet) sink in and linger after the diffuser is off.

Method
