For emotional use, we really prefer inhalation, from a personal inhaler or just a drop on a tissue. Using a few drops (proper dilution) in a hand and body lotion is also appropriate. Room diffusion is always an option if you want to change the "emotional climate" of a space, or for a group, but personal inhalation is truly more effective on an individual basis.
