How do I use checking in at the bakery in a diffuser?

Add Lemongrass 3 · Bergamot 2 · Ylang Ylang 2 · Geranium 1 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 lemongrass?

Swap lemongrass 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 checking in at the bakery?

Use it when guests are coming, on weekends, after tidying the house, or whenever you want a little good mood.

Checking in at the bakery · Lemongrass, Bergamot, Ylang Ylang blend

A pretty bakery, a sunny corner, perfect photos. Lemongrass opens fresh and zingy, bergamot is elegant, and ylang-ylang plus a drop of geranium add a soft, sweet floral layer. A small shop, a pastry counter or a nicely decorated living room all look more photogenic with this scent. Tip: place the diffuser near the entrance so guests smell the lemongrass and flowers first; cut back the lemongrass if the shop is narrow.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lemongrass (fresh, green and clean); bergamot (light citrus with a floral edge, Earl Grey style) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Ylang ylang (rich, creamy, tropical and sweetly floral); geranium (green and rosy, fresh and balanced) form the body of the scent and stay 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.

Safety

Photosensitizing Skin irritant

Bergamot can make skin sensitive to sunlight when applied topically — avoid sun and tanning beds for 12 hours after applying.

Lemongrass can irritate skin — dilute well and patch-test on a small area first.

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.
