for mom on Women's Day

4 oils · Citrus · Floral · code BL-1978


Four drops of soft rose lead, three drops of fresh, clean bergamot follow, and neroli and geranium add white petals and a green rosy note. Gentle and elegant, it's a lovely gift for mom on 10/20, Vietnamese Women's Day, in place of a thank-you that's hard to say out loud. Mix the ten drops in a roller bottle as a gift with a handwritten card; if mom likes it sweeter, add one drop of rose.

How it unfolds

On opening. Bergamot (light citrus with a floral edge, Earl Grey style) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Rose (deep, silky and luxurious); neroli (white-floral, honeyed and clear); geranium (green and rosy, fresh and balanced) form the body of the scent and stay 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

Bergamot 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 for mom on Women's Day in a diffuser?
Add Rose 4 · Bergamot 3 · Neroli 2 · Geranium 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 rose?
Swap rose for lavender or ylang ylang — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: lavender is floral-herbal, clean and soothing.
When is the best time to use for mom on Women's Day?
Diffuse it in a room, or mix a roller to dab on your wrists (diluted in a carrier oil).
