chill with a snow cone

4 oils · Citrus · Minty · code BL-2859


Peppermint opens icy; lemon and spearmint sit equally, bright tartness meeting sweet coolness; a drop of lime adds green peel. Cool like a snow cone drizzled with lime syrup. Good for the living room or a study corner at summer noon. Start the diffuser when the sun is harshest; for a gentler version, cut peppermint to 2 drops.

How it unfolds

On opening. Peppermint (cool, sharp and clean); lemon (fresh, bright and clean); spearmint (sweet and cool, softer than peppermint, with a hint of chewing gum); lime (zesty, gently tart and very fresh) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

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.
