coastal road trip

2 oils · Citrus · Woody · code BL-0406


Windows down, sea breeze rushing into the car. Sandalwood leads with warm, creamy wood, and lemongrass adds a fresh, lightly tart green note like clean ocean air. The scent is warm yet airy, good for the living room or a workspace. A mini diffuser takes the recipe as is; for a fresher take, raise lemongrass to 3 drops, then put on your road-trip playlist and turn on the diffuser.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lemongrass (fresh, green and clean) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

What remains. Sandalwood (creamy, smooth and long-lasting) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.

Safety

Skin irritant

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.


FAQ

How do I use coastal road trip in a diffuser?
Add Sandalwood 4 · Lemongrass 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 sandalwood?
Swap sandalwood for cedarwood or patchouli — same woody family. The blend will shift a little: cedarwood is dry and warm, like a wooden chest and pencil shavings.
When is the best time to use coastal road trip?
Use it at the end of the day, on weekends, while reading or right after a shower — whenever you want everything to slow down a beat.
