Blend recipes · Meditation & calm
Determined to meditate, with mandarin along to keep things from getting too serious. Five drops of lavender lay a gentle herbal base, frankincense and bergamot add warm resin and fresh citrus, and two drops of mandarin leave a sweet freshness like just-peeled mandarin rind. Lovely in the morning or late afternoon. If you like it fresher, raise mandarin to three drops.

On opening. Bergamot (light citrus with a floral edge, Earl Grey style); mandarin (gently sweet, softer than orange) 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.
Bergamot 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.
