Cypress leads with cold green needles, juniper adds dry wood, and a drop of fennel brings a touch of warm spice like the kitchen of a stilt house. The scent of nights in Sa Pa waiting for snow. Good for the bedroom or living room on bitterly cold days. Start the diffuser as you check the weather forecast; for more warmth, add 1 drop of juniper.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Cypress (fresh, dry and clean like conifer wood); juniper (green and berry-like, with clean resinous wood); fennel (sweet and herbal with a little anise) 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.
