Hello! I’ve just turned on my vapouriser and somehow I’m still surprised after 20 years that it makes such a glorious difference in the home, or office – any space really. Here’s a few recipes to embrace the new season and expand your consciousness too, with a few drops of essential oil ….
A diffuser or vapouriser is a motorized machine to disperse essential oils throughout your space. There are so many wonderful designs now that it can be fun to have a few to choose from – hey some vapourisers may you suit your mood better than others, and even the recipe you’ve decided to use too. Some are colourful and have LED light displays, some are wood or bamboo and add a more natural vibe.
Diffusing essential oils is a great way to relieve stress, calm children and pets, and beautify your home.
To Scent Your Space, my ratio has always been:
In a traditional oil burner with a candle or a diffuser add 25 drops of oil.
However many diffusers say to only use a few drops, so use your intuition and see how you go with your own diffuser, how long it lasts, and whether you want to use more or less next time. If you are using a traditional vapaouriser with candle (often referred to as a “burner”), then 25 drops is a good ratio as it takes a lot longer for the oils to disperse.
Scent Your Space Recipes
There’s A Light
Orange 8 drops
Rose Geranium 8 drops
Lavender 5 drops

Lemongrass 7 drops
Rosemary 5 drops
Ylang Ylang 5 drops
Date Night
Bergamot 12 drops
Cedarwood Atlas 8 drops
Jasmine 5 drops (don’t use 3% in jojoba as it will clog your machine. Only use pure essential oil as the jojoba could mess with the mechanics of the machine)
My House Smells Weird I Need Essential Oils

Geranium 6 drops
Palmarosa 6 drops
Cedarwood Virginiana 3 drops
Study or Wake Up!

It’s easy to find great vapourisers near where you are, just by looking on the Internet with your search engine.
Remember to treat yourself first, then everyone will benefit.

Is it possible to add perfume drops in water and put the mixture in the electric diffuser instead of oil 🙂

You could try it and I’d take a guess and say it will work. Do an experiment and let us know, thanks, Suzanne.

Hi Suzanne, some good ideas there. I don’t use a room diffuser, but I have something similar. I keep my full bottles in two drawers, the top and bottom drawers of a three-drawer lowboy. In the middle drawer is my ties, and I now have the best-smelling tie collection around.

You’re a genius Greg. Its wonderful how the oils can take their time and gently persuade you to love them (as they secretly scent your ties)!
