Brain at full capacity · Bergamot, Cedarwood, Rosemary blend

Brain running at full capacity: no breaks, no lag. Three drops of bergamot open with bright, fresh citrus, cedarwood and rosemary, two drops each, add steady dry wood and green herbs, and a single drop of peppermint leaves a cool streak. Perfect for a busy Monday morning with lots to handle. If you work into the evening, leave out the peppermint so you're not too wired at bedtime.

How it unfolds

On opening. Bergamot (light citrus with a floral edge, Earl Grey style); rosemary (cool, green, herbal and invigorating); peppermint (cool, sharp and clean) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

What remains. Cedarwood (dry and warm, like a wooden chest and pencil shavings) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.
