a pinch of self-love

4 oils · Citrus · Floral · Minty · code BL-0753


Love yourself a tiny bit every day. Four drops of jasmine open with sweet white flowers, lavender adds soft purple blooms, and spearmint and sweet orange add one drop each, sweet coolness and fresh orange. Good for the vanity or the bedroom in the morning. Turn on the diffuser, look in the mirror, and say one really kind thing to yourself.

How it unfolds

On opening. Spearmint (sweet and cool, softer than peppermint, with a hint of chewing gum); sweet orange (ripe, sweet, cheerful and round) rise 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.

FAQ

How do I use a pinch of self-love in a diffuser?
Add Jasmine 4 · Lavender 2 · Spearmint 1 · Sweet Orange 1 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 pinch of self-love?
Turn it on when your head feels tight: before a meeting, after a long day, or when you need a few minutes to settle.
