How do I use under the covers, rain outside in a diffuser?

Add Orris 3 · Vanilla 1 · Smilax 1 · Sandalwood 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 orris?

Swap orris for lavender or geranium — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: lavender is floral-herbal, clean and soothing.

When is the best time to use under the covers, rain outside?

Made for chilly days, cold rain, Tet (the Lunar New Year) and Christmas; use it in the living room or bedroom.

Under the covers, rain outside · Orris, Vanilla, Smilax blend

Powdery vanilla and warm earthy wood; cozy however cold it gets.

Snuggled under the covers listening to the rain: soft powdery orris, sweet vanilla, warm earthy smilax root and creamy sandalwood, cozy no matter how cold it gets. A round, warm scent, great for the bedroom in winter, the sofa on rainy days or a reading corner. Start the diffuser as you pull up the blanket and play some lo-fi music; for more sweetness, add one drop of vanilla.
