Zen without the mountain · Frankincense, Blue Chamomile, Bergamot blend

Zen without climbing a mountain; all you need is a corner of your room. Six drops of frankincense lay a warm resin base, four drops of blue chamomile add mellow, sweet herbs, and two drops of bergamot open with a touch of freshness. Lovely while listening to an audiobook or folding laundry before bed. In a small room under 10 m², use only half the recipe.

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. Blue chamomile (deeply herbal, bittersweet and a little smoky) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.

What remains. Frankincense (resinous with a light lemony note, deep and still) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.
