Too cold to get up · Ceylon Cassia, Peppermint blend

It's chilly, the blanket is warm, and nobody wants to get up. Ceylon cassia opens with a sweet, warm cinnamon scent, softer than regular cinnamon, like a cup of spiced tea; peppermint slips in just cool enough to drag you out of bed. This two-oil blend is made for the bedroom on winter mornings or rainy days. Set the diffuser to switch on 10 minutes before your alarm, and the cinnamon will gently call you awake.

How it unfolds

On opening. Peppermint (cool, sharp and clean) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Ceylon cassia (sweet, softly spicy and warm) 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.
