weekend body scrub

2 oils · Floral · Woody · code BL-0521


Just two drops of cedarwood and two drops of ylang-ylang, and you get a very grown-up scent. Cedarwood lays down warm dry wood, and ylang-ylang covers it with rich, sweet, seductive yellow flowers. Perfect for a weekend evening devoted entirely to your skin: scrub, face mask, body lotion. A small bathroom takes the recipe as is; for the bedroom, double it.

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. Cedarwood (dry and warm, like a wooden chest and pencil shavings) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.


Method

Diffuser
Cedarwood 2 · Ylang Ylang 2 drops in 200–300 ml of water. Run for 30–60 minutes, then take a break.
10 ml roller
Cedarwood 2 · Ylang Ylang 2 drops, then top up with a carrier oil (jojoba or sweet almond). Dab on wrists and the back of the neck.
50 ml room spray
Cedarwood 15 · Ylang Ylang 15 drops + 1 teaspoon of food-grade alcohol, then top up with distilled water. Shake before spraying.

Safety

Do not use for children under 6, during pregnancy, or if you have a health condition without asking a professional first. Never ingest essential oils; keep them out of reach of children and pets.


FAQ

How do I use weekend body scrub in a diffuser?
Add Cedarwood 2 · Ylang Ylang 2 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 cedarwood?
Swap cedarwood for sandalwood or patchouli — same woody family. The blend will shift a little: sandalwood is creamy, smooth and long-lasting.
When is the best time to use weekend body scrub?
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.
