wine night for two

5 oils · Citrus · Floral · Woody · code BL-1767


Sandalwood and ylang ylang share most of the blend, warm and sweet like a glass of red wine, bergamot opens with freshness, and geranium and patchouli keep the finish deep and sensual. Perfect for evenings for two: opening a bottle, nibbling cheese and putting on music. The 50-drop batch is best premixed; use 6 drops each time for the living room.

How it unfolds

On opening. Bergamot (light citrus with a floral edge, Earl Grey style) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Ylang ylang (rich, creamy, tropical and sweetly floral); geranium (green and rosy, fresh and balanced) form the body of the scent and stay longest in the room.

What remains. Sandalwood (creamy, smooth and long-lasting); patchouli (like damp earth and dark wood, deeply sweet) sink in and linger after the diffuser is off.

Safety

Photosensitizing

Bergamot can make skin sensitive to sunlight when applied topically — avoid sun and tanning beds for 12 hours after applying.

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 wine night for two in a diffuser?
Add Sandalwood 2 · Ylang Ylang 2 · Bergamot 2 · Geranium 1 · Patchouli 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 sandalwood?
Swap sandalwood for cedarwood or cypress — same woody family. The blend will shift a little: cedarwood is dry and warm, like a wooden chest and pencil shavings.
When is the best time to use wine night for two?
Made for date nights, candlelit dinners and private spaces; switch it on 15 minutes before anyone arrives.
