DIY room spray

5 oils · Citrus · Floral · Woody · code BL-2402


Make your own room spray. Lavender makes a soft base, bergamot and lemon share the bright part, pine adds a forest note, and a single drop of sandalwood sets a warm, creamy wood base so the scent lasts. Mix with water and a little alcohol in a 100ml spray bottle, and shake well before misting curtains, pillows and rugs. It's an easy way to scent the whole room.

How it unfolds

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

As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing); pine (green and resinous, like a forest walk) form the body of the scent and stay longest in the room.

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

Safety

Photosensitizing

Bergamot and Lemon 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.


FAQ

How do I use DIY room spray in a diffuser?
Add Lavender 3 · Bergamot 2 · Lemon 2 · Pine 1 · Sandalwood 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 lavender?
Swap lavender for geranium or ylang ylang — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: geranium is green and rosy, fresh and balanced.
When is the best time to use DIY room spray?
Use it after cooking or cleaning, in the bathroom, near the shoe cabinet, or in rooms shared with pets.
