Best friend dropping by · Pine, Peppermint, Lemon blend

Your best friend texts that they're on the way, and the room isn't tidy yet. Fresh, resinous pine pops up first, then peppermint and lemon follow, icy cool and bright, like flinging a window open to the forest. Keep this bottle ready for emergencies. Turn on the diffuser immediately, shove stuff into the closet, open the windows; ten minutes and you're good.

How it unfolds

On opening. Peppermint (cool, sharp and clean); lemon (fresh, bright and clean) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Pine (green and resinous, like a forest walk) 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.
