Bring the Alps Home: How to Make Your Own Swiss Stone Pine Spray

Do you know that feeling when you step into a rustic Alpine hut, take a deep breath, and immediately feel your pulse slow down? That spicy, resinous scent of the Swiss Stone Pine (Pinus Cembra) is balm for the soul.

The good news: You don't have to travel to the mountains to experience this. With a homemade Organic Swiss Stone Pine Spray, you can bring the power of the "Queen of the Alps" directly into your bedroom or office. It is affordable, 100% natural, and ready in less than 5 minutes.

Why Swiss Stone Pine? (The Expert View)

The Stone Pine grows in high alpine regions under extreme conditions. To survive there, it produces a unique cocktail of ingredients. While the wood is famous for Pinosylvin, the pure essential oil contains highly effective terpenes (like Alpha-Pinene). When we inhale this scent, amazing things happen:

• Deeper Relaxation: Studies and tradition suggest that the scent of Stone Pine can calm the autonomic nervous system and promote recovery during sleep.
• Air Purification: Stone Pine oil neutralizes unpleasant odors (e.g., kitchen smells) better than almost any other oil.
• Protection: Moths and insects avoid the intense scent of Stone Pine – perfect for your wardrobe!

The Recipe: Your DIY Guide

Pro Tip on Shelf Life:
Essential oils love alcohol but hate water. Since we use "only" vodka in this recipe, a milky mixture is created where the oil might float on top. This is completely natural!
Important: Since we don't use strong artificial preservatives, please use distilled water and use up the spray within 4-6 weeks.

What you need (for approx. 100ml / 3.4 oz):

• 80 ml distilled water (makes the spray last longer than tap water)
• 20 ml Alcohol (at least 40% Vol. Vodka – or even better: high-proof alcohol/Everclear for better solubility)
• 20-30 drops of Viworo Organic Swiss Stone Pine Oil
• An empty spray bottle (preferably amber glass to protect the oil)

Step-by-Step Preparation:

1. Pour the alcohol into the empty spray bottle.
2. Add the drops of Organic Stone Pine Oil into the alcohol. Important: Swirl the bottle gently now so the oil bonds with the alcohol.
3. Now fill up with the water. The mixture will likely turn milky-cloudy – this is called the "Louche effect" and is a sign of quality for essential oils!
4. Close the bottle and shake vigorously. Done!

💡 Application Tip: Since we avoid chemical emulsifiers, shake the bottle briefly before every use ("Shake & Spray").

Application: Where does the spray work best?

• As a "Sleep Well Spray": 2-3 sprays on your pillow or into the air just before sleeping.
• In the Office: When stressed or the air is stale, the clear forest scent provides new concentration.
• In the Wardrobe: Spray onto wooden balls or cloths in your closet to keep moths away.

Why Organic Quality from Viworo Makes the Difference

For an effective spray, the quality of the raw material is crucial. Cheap pine oils are often diluted or contaminated with pesticides. You don't want to inhale that or spray it in your bedroom.

The Viworo Promise: We use exclusively 100% pure organic oil. Our Stone Pines come from sustainable wild harvesting or controlled organic farming. Thanks to gentle steam distillation, the full spectrum of alpine power is preserved – completely without chemicals.
