How do I use clean down to the grout in a diffuser?

Add Tea Tree 3 · Eucalyptus 2 · Lemon 2 · Thyme 2 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 tea tree?

Swap tea tree for rosemary or clary sage — same herbal family. The blend will shift a little: rosemary is cool, green, herbal and invigorating.

When is the best time to use clean down to the grout?

Use it after cooking or cleaning, in the bathroom, near the shoe cabinet, or in rooms shared with pets.

Clean down to the grout · Tea Tree, Eucalyptus, Lemon blend

Clean right down to the grout lines and the corners of every cabinet. Clean green tea tree leads, while eucalyptus, lemon and thyme split two drops each, clear cool, bright fresh and dry spicy herbs. Mix it into a spray bottle with water and a little alcohol to wipe the tile grout and the sink. Put the rest in the diffuser so the whole room shares that just-scrubbed feel.

How it unfolds

On opening. Tea tree (green, medicinal and clean); eucalyptus (strong, cool and wide open); lemon (fresh, bright and clean) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Thyme (warm, dry and herbal with a touch of spice) forms the body of the scent and stays 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

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

Thyme 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.
