I've not seen this method before, but I can see that those oils with a very strong smell (eg eucalyptus and lemongrass) would have fewer drops in a blend than the gentler cypress. It looks like a formula to make blending easier. But the only criticism I would have of it is that it doesn't take the notes into consideration (at least, from your example). The mixture you describe would benefit from having a base note, I would say. Vetiver for instance, or patchouli. Did the teacher who gave the course develop this method? If so, could you ask him or her for the blending factors of other oils? Helen in Cape Town Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
