Brave nose, busy streets · Lavender, Lemon, Frankincense blend

Name: brave nose, busy streets
Yield: 8 drops
Ingredients: 3 drops Lavender essential oil; 2 drops Lemon essential oil; 2 drops Frankincense essential oil; 1 drop Peppermint essential oil

Before you roll your scooter out into heavy traffic, give your nose a little courage. Lavender opens gently, lemon brightens, frankincense adds a warm resin layer, and a drop of peppermint keeps a clear, cool note. Great to switch on while you get ready to head out, or as soon as you're home to freshen the room. Mixing 8 drops into a 10ml roll-on with carrier oil to take along is a nice idea too.

How it unfolds

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

As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing) 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.
