a little soft life

3 oils · Citrus · Floral · code BL-0429


Jasmine and lavender at four drops each make a soft, sweet, slightly dreamy floral base. Three drops of lime slip in the tart green bite of fresh lime peel, keeping the scent from getting heavy. This is a blend for anyone who wants to live a bit slower without going anywhere: a beanbag chair, a cold glass of water. If jasmine feels too intense for you, cut it to three drops and add one drop of lime.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lime (zesty, gently tart and very fresh) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Jasmine (white-floral, sweet, heady and alluring); lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing) form the body of the scent and stay 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

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

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.


FAQ

How do I use a little soft life in a diffuser?
Add Jasmine 3 · Lavender 3 · Lime 2 drops to 200–300 ml of water. In a room under 15 m², use 1–2 drops less; in a room over 25 m², add 1 more drop of the main oil.
What can I use instead of jasmine?
Swap jasmine for geranium or ylang ylang — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: geranium is green and rosy, fresh and balanced.
When is the best time to use a little soft life?
Use it at the end of the day, on weekends, while reading or right after a shower — whenever you want everything to slow down a beat.
