6am shift, sharp · Lemon, Peppermint, Eucalyptus Radiata blend

The morning shift starts, and you need to get things rolling early. Ten drops of lemon open tart, fresh and dazzling, four drops each of peppermint and eucalyptus radiata add icy and gentle coolness, and two drops of cinnamon sprinkle in sweet, spicy warmth. Premix all twenty drops and keep them at the counter, using five per shift. Great for shops, service counters or the office at opening time.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lemon (fresh, bright and clean); peppermint (cool, sharp and clean); eucalyptus radiata (gently cool, softer than classic eucalyptus) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Cinnamon (spicy-sweet, hot and warm) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.

What remains. With no woody or resin base note, this blend fades fairly quickly — switch it on again after 1–2 hours to keep the room scented.

Safety

Photosensitizing Skin irritant

Lemon can make skin sensitive to sunlight when applied topically — avoid sun and tanning beds for 12 hours after applying.

Cinnamon can irritate skin — dilute well and patch-test on a small area first.

Do not use for children under 6, during pregnancy, or if you have a health condition without asking a professional first. Never ingest essential oils; keep them out of reach of children and pets.
