This is a list of the 20 BEST essential oil recipes for diffusers. These 20 essential oil diffuser recipes are the tried-and-true recipes that I use in our home on a daily basis. The scent combinations are perfect and there’s plenty of creative options for your many household’s needs.
I’ve officially broken-up with my store-bought candle collection.
I used to be a complete candle-addict, but my candles have collected a lot of dust since my first essential oil diffuser arrived last year.
Diffusing essential oils not only makes my home smell nice, but they also can provide other health benefits as well. I have lost count of how many diffusers I currently have in my home
I always use cold-air diffusers, since anything that heats the oils can damage some of their beneficial properties.
I never use candle warmers or anything that might heat the oils too much. Cold air diffusers are the best way to preserve al the beneficial properties of your precious essential oils.
If you are new to essential oils, there’s no better way to get to know them than through your diffuser. Try a few of my top favorite essential oil recipes for your diffuser below to get you started!
20 Best Essential Oil Recipes for Diffusers
This is a list of my 20 favorite essential oil recipes for diffusers. There’s an essential oil blend for pretty much every season and household need.
General Guidelines:
- The following blends are meant to be used in a cold-air diffuser. These diffusers usually require a small amount of water to be added, along with the oils. (Usually around 70 mL)

Wondering Where to Get Essential Oils?
There seems to be new essential oil companies popping up every day, but I’ve used doTERRA essential oils for nearly 4 years and I’ll never go anywhere else.
The oils are third-party tested for purity (you can SMELL the difference if you compare them to other brands), ethically sourced around the globe, and I love that doTERRA is a humanitarian-geared company.
I’m happy to personally help you get these oils in your home and tell you more about why I chose doTERRA-– click here to connect with me.

I love your info. I love how we can learn more about oils from others’ experiences. I’ve been inspired!! I too am an IPC.
Denise In Bloom says
Great post friend! I will be sharing and pinning! I love seeing the different combos for my diffuser.
Have a great day and thanks a lot!
Jill Winger says
You are welcome Miss Denise! 🙂
Dana says
Just ordered the spa vapor! Can’t wait to start diffusing. Love the recipes above!
Jill Winger says
Yay– glad you snagged one. They are so hard to find sometimes!
Amy says
So, when you list those ingredients, and underneath have the blend name, is the “recipe” the one for the actual blend or is it just a similar one? I’m trying to find the “recipe” for both the balance and serenity blends.
Jill Winger says
My recipes are different that what you would get in the blend. My “relaxation” blend and the relaxation blend have different ingredients. Hope that makes sense. 🙂
Rebecca R Casey says
What to mix clove oil with?what combo good for plugged ear?thanks
Christina says
Bergamot ??
Layla says
Tea tree oil and eucalyptus!
Dixie says
I did not recieve my essential oil ebook and I was so looking forward to it.
Jeanne Butler says
I was not able to download the e book on essential oils. I have been using them for 2 years and love them. How can I get your free recipes? Thank you, Jeanne Butler
Kathleen says
Great list! We love the Ultrasonic Classic diffuser at our house–have you tried that one? I do love the Whisper, but our Ultrasonics are more affordable for placing in multiple locations throughout the house.
doris brown says
i tried to join your facebook group by clicking on your link-i activated the email button you sent-put says facebbok page is currently unavailable-and i know you still havve dec and jan and fev–pls help thnks doris
Carey Huyser says
I have never wanted a diffuser so bad now! Maybe I’ll get it for my birthday 🙂
Amanda says
Sharing my new blog for DIY essential oil blends! http://diyessentialoilblends.blogspot.com/
WYndy says
Thank you for these recipes:)
Lisa says
Can I just drop these individual essential oils into my diffuser or must I first blend them together in an amber bottle and then put a few drops of that blend into my diffuser? Thanks for your help!
Jill Winger says
It depends on your diffuser. If it’s a cold-air diffuser that uses water, you can just drip each oil into the water.
jana @janas3dresses says
Okay, so I am clearly late to the game on this post, but I am so glad I found it! Jill, I have been researching essential oils, diffusers, oil blends, etc. – and my gosh!, there is a lot of information out there. It is overwhelming. Thank you for this very helpful, easy to follow post on using essential oils in a diffuser. I signed up to receive your emails and got your book for FREE. Thank you! My family of four has been so sick this past month. My friends keep telling me that I need to be using essential oils. Your blog is fantastic. I know I will be coming back to visit often. Blessings, Jana
Loretta Lee says
I wish I had the option of a photo but the book, ESSENTIAL OILS NATURAL REMEDIES, The complete A-Z reference of ESSENTIAL OILS for HEALTH and HEALING, is one of the best books I have found. Such a good Oil Bible. I got mine on Amazon.
Lori says
thank you for breaking down the blends. Let me know please where I can get more recipes I’m new to essential oils but I’m sold after had sick kids, eucalyptus, lavender, and tea tree oils worked great especially for the 3 year old, who’s to young for other meds.
Deedra Burt says
I would like to know more about essential oils and the diffuser please thanks Deedra Burt
Jill Winger says
Hi Roxann,
There are many essential oils that work to repel bugs–sometimes you just have to play around with what is most effective in your area. I have lots of bug spray recipes in my latest ebook: https://www.theprairiehomestead.com/natural-homestead
As far as the respiratory blend, I doubt it’d be very effective if you used it in the reed diffuser. A cold air diffuser would be better.
Bill Armstrong says
Glad I found you on pinterest, always looking for guidance in this area, love using oils in my Lotus Deffuser 😉 and with the information you provide, am now experimenting, thank you so much and will be following you closely
Regards Bill
Jill Winger says
Glad you found me too Bill! The Lotus is an awesome machine. 🙂
Debbie says
I was wondering what you would recommend for a doctors waiting room. My friend is opening her practice in her home and I suggested she use essential oils to mask home odors like cooking, etc. What would be safe and not so overpowering for all patients?
Thank you.
Debbie
brandi says
Do you have blends similar to balance or in tune?
margo says
What is the best odor eliminator? I have multiple cats.
Karen says
Hi Jill, I take it all these concoctions are safe for cats, dogs etc? Its a great post, but you really need to mention pets here, eve if its directing your readers to another page??!
Jill Winger says
I’ve diffused every oil imaginable with dogs and cats in the house and have never, ever had a problem. The diffuser mist is diluted in the air enough I can’t see it causing problems.
rachel says
Research shows some essential oils can interfere with the liver detoxification process in cats- use caution with cinnamon, tea tree, clove, oregano. Essential oils can also trigger skin sensitivity and allergies in dogs, use caution with clove, Juniper, Wintergreen, thyme
Kay says
I’m sure this is in large amounts or if ingested. A small amount in a humidifier is not going to harm an animal I’m sure. Unless the owner was irresponsible about where they placed their humidifier and the animal knocked it over and drank it for some reason. But Jill seems to know a good deal about essential oils and has used them around her animals, I myself have been using them for years with my animals around not only in the humidifier.
P.S I’m sure the humidifier is safer then any of the chemical filled air deodorizers or anything else left out that animals could get into for that matter.
Lauren Parsley says
I am fairly new to essential oils, but I love them. I am thinking of getting a diffuser, which one is your favorite?
June Geisler says
Hi Jill! I love your website! I’m a 58 yr old widowed teacher, but I love following your site! Do you know of a diffuser that doesn’t have a light or glow? The light keeps me up at night, yet I need my essential oils!
Thanks!!
June
Jill Winger says
Hi June!
The Spavapor has a no-light setting–and the AromaAce doesn’t have any light at all–so those might be good options.
June Geisler says
Jill, thanks so much for letting me know! I really appreciate it!
Karen says
Pop some coloured electrical tape over the light… easy fixed
Cheryl says
A lot of them give you the choice on whether or not to use the light.
Lisa Bertolini says
We just had a few days of ridiculous hot wind (by the beach..ahem* SAND). First thing this morning I put lemongrass in my diffuser. HUGE difference. The wind storm seems to have stopped so today is going to be the day to wipe everything down. I’m making a spray with the lemongrass to wipe down the surfaces.
Jill Winger says
Ooooh, I like that idea!
Gini a West says
Love your site and information! Had quit using my cold air diffuser and pulled it out a few days ago while sick with a case of bronchitis. So much better after enjoying peppermint and eucalyptus. Making my shopping list now!
Camille says
Hi, I have an oil burner and find no matter what scent I use it ends up smelling like the very first oil I ever put in it and it’s Def not my fav. Do you find this issue with your diffuser or any other? Maybe I need a different one?
Jill Winger says
Hi Camille,
I don’t have any experience with oil burners, but my diffusers don’t have that problem– I switch scents on a daily basis. 🙂
Betty Mauer says
Hi Jill,
I didn’t receive your essential oil e-book. I would like to know how I can obtain a copy? Thanks
Jill Winger says
Hi Betty– if you send an email to info(at)theprairiehomestead(dot)com, we’ll make sure you get a copy!
Cheryl in France says
Weird question- how can you switch from mix to mix in the same diffuser without having crossover? Is cleaning it out very complicated? And how to inhibit mold growth in the cold air diffuser- is it just a bonus that the EOs are anti bacterial/biotic/fungal or do you have to add some other ingredient? (I did read the article, I just didn’t see it, but it’s almost 1 am, so that may be why, lol)
Jill Winger says
Switching mixes is very easy– I simply let one run out, and then add in another. If there is any crossover, it’s usually only noticeable for a few seconds. And I’ve never had any mold growth– many EOs are antifungal, which I’m sure has a lot to do with that. 🙂
Jade says
I love the combinations that you’ve shared, but I have a question . . . I thought that you shouldn’t use citrus oils in your diffuser. I guess it must depend on the diffuser?
Jill Winger says
I’ve never had problems using citrus oils in my diffuser– they one some of my favorite oils to diffuse in fact!
Kay says
Problem with the Aroma Lite with Citrus Bliss eating away the plastic spout after two weeks of usage, 4-5 drops every other day on full cycle. Any suggestions?
Kat says
Any essential oils will eat through plastic. The only things that should come in contact with EOs are glass & stainless steel.
Cheryl says
All of my diffusers have a plastic well, but are covered with glass or ceramic. Are you saying that you should only buy diffusers that are all glass or stainless steel? I’ve not come across any. 🙁
Julie says
I’m new to the EO world – just bought a few oils and the ultrasonic diffuser (LOVE IT!) Question for the bug repellant – is there a way to mix the oils and spray it on you? or can you mix the oils into come coconut oil and rub it on your arms and legs? Thanks! Jules
Jill Winger says
Yes– either of those options will definitely work! 🙂
Jennifer says
I love everything oils. Thank you so much!!! I tried to download you EO ebook but it said the link wasn’t found. Is it still available somewhere!
Jill Winger says
Hey there– send an email to info(at)theprairiehomestead(dot)com and we’ll make sure you get a copy!
Robin Marshall says
Hi Jill, I started following you on fb not even knowing you did oils. I joined the oil life in July. So glad you and some of the other people like Keto Mama are apart of this life style. It makes me trust the oils knowing the same people I gravitated to for other aspects in my life also share this life style. I look forward to a new life that blends so well with all my long term beliefs. Do you do any educational videos or anything I can learn from? I plan to build and want to learn from those who have done so well. Any tips would be great and today is a Citrus Explosion day here in the office thanks to your recipe. Have and Awesome Day!!
Jill Winger says
Hi Robin– if you search ‘essential oils’ here on the blog, you’ll find lots of posts and ideas. I do webinars on occasion, too.
Trevor Dobrinska says
Hi Jill,
I am just getting into the essential oil scene and am loving all of the free content you provide! I have a question about eucalyptus EO. Of the three major types, which do you use, as your recipes only call for eucalyptus, not specific as to globulus, radiata, or citriodora. Thanks!
Jill Winger says
Hi Trevor, I use radiata
Liz phillips says
How far away and how high on table/ shelf should diffuser be for best results for pain anxiety? Thanks Liz
Jill Winger says
If you are wanting to use a diffuser for a specific health challenge, you’ll probably want it to be within 10-20 feet of you for maximum benefit.
Mark Barricelli says
My husband is experiencing chest congestion, friend said to try a diffuser, got one, what oils would be best to use?
Anna Dudley says
I am sorry if this is offending, but why does DoTerra price their oils so high? I will never buy from them because I have used them and they are the same quality as all the other brands not greedy for money. For example: I can buy 100% pure (and I have this to compared to other brands, still work the best) Frankincense oil for about $14 for 4oz. But if I got DoTerra, that would cost me a hefty $558 wholesale. DoTerra retail for that would be even more, $744. That is 53x the price of the same quality oil I get. So is DoTerra really 53x better that what I get?
Jill Winger says
When it comes to essential oils, you get what you pay for. YEs, there are plenty of brands out there than claim to be 100% pure (heck, you can even get “pure” lavender oil from Wal-Mart, which testing results show is not even true lavender oil…), but just because an oil claims to be 100% pure does not mean it is of the same-quality, or contains the same constituents as a properly-sourced oil. doTERRA sources their oils from all over the world and is committed to paying growers and farmers fair wages. Think “fair trade coffee”, but with essential oils instead. In other instances with other companies, oils are often purchased in bulk from middlemen, and they farmers are not paid fairly for their work. A high-quality product priced in a way to support farmers to produce the highest-quality oils as possible (many in third-world countries) is not the same as a company “greedy for money”.
Cheryl says
I LOVE Eden’s Garden. Reasonably priced and very quick at getting their orders out. You also get points to put towards your purchases, for liking them on FB, for your b-day and other ways to earn. I trust this company as well.
Cheryl says
That is NOT a put down to DoTerra! I have never tried them and I don’t know of a distributor in my area. I’m all for MLM’s. I’ve done several. I just read further and saw a comment from someone else and I didn’t want anyone to think I was being rude. 🙂
Birgit says
Jill,
Why do you invite people to comment on your blog when you delete comments that you don’t agree with or like? How is that being true to your readers? This creates a very one-sided view or argument and does not allow free opinion or speech.
I posted a reply comment regarding the price of essential oils stating that in most cases you do get what you pay for but some companies are overpriced. This was obviously a comment that you did not want read and felt threatened by the content. Obviously your philosophy is based financially and not in the best interest of what is good for the consumer. Shame on you!
Jill Winger says
Birgit,
I allow plenty of comments on the blog that I don’t agree with.
I believe your comment on this post about diffuser recipes said, “doTERRA oils are overpriced” or something along those lines. As someone who is deeply involved with doTERRA, knows what goes into doTERRA oils, has been to the fields where the plants are grown and met the farmers, and also compared doTERRA oils to a number of other brands, I wholeheartedly disagree with your comment. I believe doTERRA oils are an amazing value.
You are absolutely allowed to have your opinion, but I have little interest in starting a debate on essential oil pricing here on my blog, as it accomplishes nothing. Therefore, I deleted the comment from my blog.
jill says
She did leave comments there and I’m a member of doers and there oils are great look it up and don’t be rude
jill says
Doterra lol
Emmanuel says
I have a question so does it matter what oils I buy as far as price wise. Of course it’s much easier to buy the cheaper oil than the more expensive I don’t mind buying the little more pricey one but is there really a huge difference?
Ashiq Hussain says
From where I can get pure essential oils in india.
Jennifer says
Are these drops meant for 70 ml diffuser? My diffuser is 500 ml and I want it to run all night so I will have to fill it to the maximum level. Should I add more drops?
Jill Winger says
These recipes will work for most average diffusers. You can always add more if you wish, though
Toni says
Ok, so what do you consider an ‘average’ diffuser? 70ml?
Annetta says
Where an I buy the bigger difusers?
Tai says
Not sure if I just missed it… but where do you purchase your oils from?
Jill Winger says
doTERRA! I love them– https://www.theprairiehomestead.com/how-to-purchase-essential-oils

Thanks so much for your web page “20 Essential Oil Recipes For Your Diffuser” https://www.theprairiehomestead.com/2013/05/10-must-try-essential-oil-recipes-for-your-diffuser.html
Doria says
Jill, thank you for your blog post. I have never used essential oils. Thanks for the information on the different oils and the combinations. I have heard of essential oils, just was never sure which oils go together. I want to try them. I have 10 med size plastic containers full of candles of every shape and color for each season and plus some. In the closet and under the bed. I hardly use them much anymore, since they just don’t seem to hold the smell when they are burning. They just sit in the plastic boxes taking up space.
Vicki says
My Radha diffuser says to use 2-3 drops of oil so I can’t use most of these blends. Any advice for smaller amounts?
Julie says
FYI: under the blend for deodorizing animal accident odours, you have listed lemon , tea tree among other citrus oils known to be VERY toxic. I know Young Living touts their oils as “safe” for pets but it’s simply not true. Just ask my neighbour who killed her cat thinking that because she was using “Young Living” it would be fine. Limonene and other components are TOXIC in these oils for cats, they simply cannot metabolize them with their liver. I cringe when I see people gleefully telling how tea tree oil has prevented fleas in their cats..yeah, pretty soon they won’t have a cat for the fleas to bite. Do your research please! Aromatherapy is great but certain oils, tea-tree, clove, citrus oils for example are downright dangerous and can cause toxic overload or death. Regardless of brand used. Sorry I just felt I needed to post this to spare even 1 person heartache over losing a pet just not realizing the extreme potency of EO’s on pets/cats.
Trish says
Hi!
I’m excited to try the candyshop recipe! But I was wondering if wild orange is closer to sweet orange, blood orange or just orange? I can’t seem to find a wild orange in the oils I use.
Thanks!
Charity says
Thank you so much for sharing these essential oil recipes!
Rebecca says
I took a chance and mixed up equal parts of:
Patchouli
Lemongrass
Grapefruit
Smells really unique, grounding and energizing 🙂
Thank you for posting these recipes and giving me the courage to try something on my own.
Jill Winger says
That sounds like a great blend!
Heather says
Thanks for sharing these essential oil recipes! Excited to give some of them a try!
Laura says
I have a c pap machine with a water chamber in it could I use essential oils in it?
Jill Winger says
I would probably avoid that, unless you know for certain it’s made from a safe type of plastic that’s not eroded by oils
Pat Gonce says
I am new to essential oils and I have written down a few of your recipes. I notice when I go online everyone sells essential oils – are they all legit or are some of the oils fake. I basically don’t know what websites are safe to order from
Jill Winger says
There are absolutely fake oils out there– I would recommend exercising caution when ordering. I recommend and use doTERRA exclusively because I know they are pure and untainted: https://www.theprairiehomestead.com/how-to-purchase-essential-oils
Susie Markovic says
You recommend doTerra because you are a doTerra consultant, correct? There are other companies who sell pure oils online. Can you name other companies, because not everyone can afford doTerra?
Thanks 🙂
Spanky Smith says
Thanks for these great recipes, Tabitha! I am looking forward to trying them! I have a question for you…Do you have any specific suggestions for keeping the diffuser clean when using citrus?
Sierra McCormick says
Thank you so much for sharing these essential oil recipes!
A.Marie says
I love your Clean Air blend! I read it an looked thru my stash of essential oils to see what I had on hand. I substituted Coriander for the Cilantro and Orange for the Lemon. And it smells sooooo good!!
Thank You! We are also animal lovers and my house tends to smell kind of “animal-y” at times. haha
william says
I am very glad to visit here because everyone should have an essential oil diffuser included me.Lately my favorite oil to diffuse has been Jasmine.I’m obsessed with it. I literally feel like I’m in a garden sometimes and I love it! Keep blogging.
Claudia A Uccello says
I am very interested in essential oils but I lost my sense of smell about 5 yrs ago Will the oils still work.
Kathy C says
I was introduced to dottera oils 4 years ago. I have also used other oils for diffusing. There is a huge difference between oils in my opinion. Although various oil manufacturers claim to be 100% pure you can tell the difference as compared to dottera which has purity in scent. Many oils have carrier oils added to them so although they claim to be pure they are not. Also dottera oils are therapeutic grade and many can be ingested safely. I believe if you are going to inhale a substance it should be 100% pure with no additives. As a nurse I know this is important. Just my opinion.
Mary says
I have done extensive research on essential oils. NO oil should ever be injested. There are only a few food grade oils that can be injested. There is no such thing a therapeutic grade oil. Do more research. Many companies claim 100% pure and that may be, it’s the process that makes them unpure. If you want the real thing you must only buy USDA ORGANIC. The process is guaranteed minimal. No machinery so you not getting metals in your oil which is harmful to us. I hope this helps.
Test Factor X Testosterone Booster says
Hello.This post was really interesting, especially because I was searching for thoughts
on this issue last couple of days.
Mary says

Devin Panas says
Thank you so much, this tip will save my life. I am sedentary and have trouble losing weight.
Rudi Pittman says
I have a diffuser that holds 600ml of water. I’ve read that the general rule of thumb is a couple of drops of essential oil per 100ml of water. So for just a nice vanilla scent I’d use 12 drops or so of a good oil and up to 20 of a weaker one.
My question is this…when using a blend such as citrus explosion where it wants multiple drops of multiple bottles (total of 5 drops) do I treat that as the “minimum” and multiple accordingly by 6(30 drops) for 600ml or does that count toward a total where I might multiply by 4 to get it up to 20 drops of various oils?
Yoan Putri Hartono says
what do you think about doterra terra shield? also, any specific blend for mosquitos?
Iris Lopez says

Diffusers that requires water destroys the therapeutic health properties of the oils. The only type of diffuser you should use is a wood or ceramic and glass nebulizer diffuser. doTERRA are OK oils but they are, just like Young Living, way over priced and have both been found to adulterate some of their oils when the plant material runs low, real expensive or rare. Their members will argue saying, “No way all their oils are 100% pure”. Well think about it, the lab tests are run by the company itself. So people just tend to believe whatever the company tell them. I’m still doing the research and have found a couple of places to get high quality organic therapeutic grade oils at half the price and not the over priced marketing ploy of the big companies making big bucks off their loyal members. They can easily do this because most people don’t want to take the time to do the research themselves. Once I became disable with life threatening illnesses, (Cancer,ect.), I could no longer afford wasting money on high prices oils.
Hey if you like doTERRA or Young Living and want to pay their high prices don’t let me deter you. Just make sure you don’t buy diffusers that use water, heat or plastic. https://organicaromas.com/blogs/aromatherapy-and-essential-oils/the-differences-between-essential-oil-diffusers

Hi – My family and I have been using essential oils for 10 years. We are 100% believers in their healing powers. I turned essential oils into a business about 4 years ago, due to my first hand knowledge of their amazing properties. To address some of the diffuser comments and questions above, you do not need a nebulizing diffuser to enjoy the benefits of oils. Ultrasonic diffusers that use water do an excellent job of transporting oils in the air. And, though nebulizers provide an intense essential oil experience, they take a lot of oil to run and they run through that oil quickly. Now, if you’re water source is compromised, this can degrade the oil. We have, however, made a push to provide all types of diffuser options to our customers. If you don’t like plastic diffusers, we have ceramic. If you don’t want ceramic, we have glass. If you don’t want ultrasonic with water, we have nebulizing diffusers. If anyone has any questions, please reach out. We’ve been using oils daily, for a long time. Happy to answer any question or address concerns the best I can. Thanks

Thank you for this lovely list of essential oil recipes. I have used essential oils for a long time, but never quite figured out how to blend them for calming and physiological benefits. However, I must say, your impressive recipes appear to be right on the money. The first one I’ll try is the “Deep Breath,” I believe it’s exactly what I’ll love. Again, thank you..

I like essential oils and I have been using all kinds of essential oils.
The oil recipes described in this article are excellent. There are a few of them that I plan to try right away tonight.
I have a tip for a newcomer. Because the essential oil is insoluble in water, the waterless diffuser is better.

Wow wonderful! It’s like having the secret to all the “proprietary” blends that I love. Thank you.
Brenda Garrod says
My 90 year old father is really interested (and enjoying!) essential oils in a small diffuser. The only issue is that, if 2 drops are recommended, 10 are better. Can you recommend a carrier oil I could use to mix the essential oils with? He’s gone through 8 bottles of essential oils in one month.
diffuser blends says
of course like your website but you have to test the spelling on quite
a few of your posts. Several of them are rife with spelling issues and I to find it
very bothersome to inform the reality on the other hand I’ll certainly come back again.
