MONQ Therapeutic Air diffusers are one of my favorite ways to cope with stress and anxiety and “enhance” my mood in a natural way.
So I was excited to hear that MONQ had launched a new line of diffusers called Feel Nature.
This new line consists of three blends, Forest, Ocean, and Mountain.
MONQ’s original line of essential oil diffuser pens was created to capture a feeling such as calm or energy. This time around MONQ is not only inspiring some amazing feelings, but they want to transport you to another place as well.
MONQ’s Feel Nature line is inspired by the Japanese art of Forest Therapy, which is an ancient practice of using wooded areas and other natural environments to promote health and well-being through organic compounds called terpenes that are released by plants. MONQ’s designers created three essential oil blends to bring you all the benefits of terpenes, blended into a wonderful aroma specifically designed to give you the sense of being free in the outdoors.
I think this line will be especially great for those living in the city, away from nature, or those who just can’t get outside because they have to work all day. A few puffs from one of these all natural diffusers can help bring that feeling to you, no matter where you are.
I was able to sample the blends before their release and while there are things about them all that I like, Mountain is by far my favorite and I wanted to write a quick little review for you and share the things that I love about it.
The Scent
For starters, it smells amazing.
It contains lemon, peppermint, cypress leaf, thyme, douglas fir, scotch pine and juniper leaf. It has just a hint of the pine and peppermint, with the lemon and juniper standing out a bit more, in my opinion.
As I mentioned before, this line is all about giving you that sensation of being free in nature. According to MONQ’s website, Mountain was designed to give a sense of strength and awe that can only come from being in the mountains and I can definitely pick up that vibe from it.
The Mood
However, if I had to pick an overall mood that this blend inspires, it is definitely relaxation. Not groggy relaxation….but peaceful relaxation.
When I first tried MONQ’s Zen blend, I was expecting to be relaxed because it is marketed for that purpose. When I first tried Mountain, I was expecting something different, so I was a bit surprised at the relaxing feelings I got from it. I made a mental note of those feelings and sure enough, it was the same way every time I used it. It also has a very “fresh” taste to it due to the pine and peppermint. I would say it gives a really cool sense of calm awareness if that makes sense. And actually, now that I think about it, I suppose that is the same as the sense of awe you get from being in the Mountains. So there you go. Sometimes you just have to write your thoughts out to get them organized and then they all make sense.
Nothing could ever replace Zen in my heart because I love the soothing sense of nostalgia it gives me, but when it comes to a blend that helps me relax and unwind, Mountain is right at the top of my list.
MONQ will also be continuing its original line of 7 blends: Sleepy, Zen, Vibrant, Healthy, Active, Sexy, and Happy .

Thank you so much for your help AnnaLisa!!
Hi again AnnaLisa, I thought that I had posted a new comment but maybe not. I was wondering your thoughts on the Healthy, Sexy and Forest blends? I know they all have different purposes but I’m just wondering of those 3 which ones you liked most or thought were most effective.
Hi Hannah, I do like the Forest but from the Feel Nature Line I prefer Mountain definitely so I would not say Forest out of those three. If I am choosing between Sexy and Healthy, I will say that flavor-wise I like the Sexy better but I don’t really get a whole lot from it in the “feeling sexy” department. 😉 I know people that said it does have an effect on them that way, but honestly, it doesn’t do that for me. I have young kids though so maybe nothing on Earth will do that for me at this point. So I am going to go with Healthy. I am a huge proponent of the turmeric and cinnamon that it contains. I like the anti-inflammatory properties and I like the flavor of it as well. 😉
Hi again AnnaLisa, I’m just wondering, if you had to choose between Healthy and Sexy which one did you like or found to be a more effective blend? Thanks so much!
Hi sorry I missed your first comment earlier. I answered you a second ago but it didn’t go through and I had to resend so I am hoping it sticks this time. I think I have some glitches going on with my comments.
Hi AnnaLisa, I’m just wondering, have you tried all MONQ blends? I’m trying to gather information on which 7 blends people like best out of the total 10. Input from you would be really appreciated!
Hi Hannah, yes I have tried all the blends. Zen and Mountain are my two favorites but I like Happy as well! xo
Great post 🙂
