How do I use empty streets in summer in a diffuser?

Add Lemongrass 4 · Lime 3 · Bergamot 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 lemongrass?

Swap lemongrass for lemon or sweet orange — same citrus family. The blend will shift a little: lemon is fresh, bright and clean.

Use it at midday, in hot rooms, or after coming in from outside; you can also mix a room spray for a quick cool-down.

The scent is clean and fits the living room, kitchen or bathroom on hot days. Besides using a diffuser, you can add a few drops to your floor-mopping water so the whole home stays fresh all afternoon.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lemongrass (fresh, green and clean); lime (zesty, gently tart and very fresh); bergamot (light citrus with a floral edge, Earl Grey style) 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.

Safety

Photosensitizing Skin irritant

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

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.
