How do I use west-facing office survival in a diffuser?

Add Rosemary 4 · Cedarwood 2 · Peppermint 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 rosemary?

Swap rosemary for eucalyptus or tea tree — same herbal family. The blend will shift a little: eucalyptus is strong, cool and wide open.

When is the best time to use west-facing office survival?

Use it at midday, in hot rooms, or after coming in from outside; you can also mix a room spray for a quick cool-down.

West-facing office survival · Rosemary, Cedarwood, Peppermint blend

A west-facing office heats up all afternoon: rosemary makes up most of the blend, green and sharp, cedarwood lays a dry wood base, and peppermint blows cool. The scent is tidy and helps you feel more alert under the harsh sun. Mix a bottle using this ratio and use 5 drops each time. If coworkers aren't used to rosemary, cut it back and add more peppermint.

How it unfolds

On opening. Rosemary (cool, green, herbal and invigorating); peppermint (cool, sharp and clean) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

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