A flared dress, bare legs and an evening outdoors. The two grasses open seamlessly: warm, bold citronella and fresh, sharp lemongrass, while lavender closes with soft florals so it does not smell too farmhouse. Dilute into a small spray and mist your hem, shoe straps and bag before leaving home. For a more floral scent, raise lavender to 5 drops.

On opening. Citronella (strong, green and slightly lemony); lemongrass (fresh, green and clean) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.
As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing) 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.
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.
