aesthetic note-taking

3 oils · Citrus · Herbal · Resinous & sweet · code BL-1065


Notes as pretty as the ones online, with colored pens and stickers galore. Three drops of lime open with a sharp, green tang, two drops of frankincense lay a warm resin base, and two drops of fennel add an unusual sweet, sharp note. Great for a study desk covered in notebooks. If fennel isn't familiar to you, cut it to one drop and add a drop of bergamot.

How it unfolds

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

As it settles. Fennel (sweet and herbal with a little anise) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.

What remains. Frankincense (resinous with a light lemony note, deep and still) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.


Method

Diffuser

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 aesthetic note-taking in a diffuser?
Add Lime 3 · Frankincense 2 · Fennel 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 lime?
Swap lime for lemon or sweet orange — same citrus family. The blend will shift a little: lemon is fresh, bright and clean.
When is the best time to use aesthetic note-taking?
Run it at your desk or study corner in cycles of 30 minutes on, 30 minutes off, so your nose does not tune the scent out.
