How do I use warm foot soak in a diffuser?

Add Myrrh 3 · Roman Chamomile 3 · Sweet Orange 1 · Lemon 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 myrrh?

Swap myrrh for frankincense or vanilla — same resinous & sweet family. The blend will shift a little: frankincense is resinous with a light lemony note, deep and still.

When is the best time to use warm foot soak?

Use it at the end of the day, on weekends, while reading or right after a shower — whenever you want everything to slow down a beat.

Warm foot soak · Myrrh, Roman Chamomile, Sweet Orange blend

A basin of warm water, legs stretched out, a lovely scent drifting around. Myrrh and Roman chamomile share the main role, one warm, deep and slightly woody, the other a smooth floral tea, while sweet orange and lemon sprinkle in a fresh sweet-and-tangy note. The blend suits the living room or bedroom in the evening. Put the diffuser near your chair, soak your feet for 15 minutes, and hold a good book.

How it unfolds

On opening. Sweet orange (ripe, sweet, cheerful and round); lemon (fresh, bright and clean) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Roman chamomile (like ripe apple and dry hay, soft and mellow) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.

What remains. Myrrh (bittersweet, resinous, deep and classic) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.
