Bergamot & Vetiver Fragrance Oil
Woody earthy with bergamot, sage, pepper, iris, cotton, leather, patchouli, myrrh, vetiver, cedar, and amber.
The scent
Fresh bergamot, sage, and pepper open with a mellow, sun-warmed quality that feels earthy and natural from the first note. Iris, cotton, soft leather, and patchouli add a tactile, organic depth to the heart that gives the fragrance real texture and character. Myrrh, vetiver, cedar, and amber close with a dry, smoky warmth that carries exceptionally well in both candles and reed diffusers. A genuinely unisex scent that moves easily across seasons — fresh enough for spring, grounded enough for autumn and winter — and works particularly well in wellness ranges, everyday diffuser lines, and Father’s Day gift sets.

Can I use Bergamot & Vetiver in an electric diffuser or oil burner?
Yes.
- Electric water diffusers (ultrasonic or humidifier style) – fill the tank with water to the line, then add 3–5 drops per 100ml of water. Start low and add more to taste.
- Oil burners – mix 50/50 with dipropylene glycol (DPG), or add a few drops to water in the well.
Important – look after your diffuser:
- Fragrance oils are concentrated, and some plastics used in diffuser tanks can soften, cloud or crack if oil is left sitting in them. This depends on the plastic the diffuser is made from. It happens with any concentrated fragrance or essential oil, not just ours.
- Empty the tank when you’ve finished. Don’t leave water and oil sitting in it between uses.
- Rinse and wipe the tank every few uses, as fragrance oils can leave a film.
- Check your diffuser’s instructions to make sure it is suitable for fragrance oils. If it says essential oils only, or doesn’t say, ask the maker before using it.
How do I use the 100ml bottles?
They include a blind plug to prevent leaks in transit. Either pierce the centre with a pin or biro to use it as a dropper, or remove the stopper, pour, and replace the plug.
