fresh-start Monday

3 oils · Citrus · Herbal · code BL-0214


Monday opens with a wave of citrus: elegant, slightly bitter bergamot, juicy, cheerful sweet orange, and eucalyptus radiata blowing in a light, airy cool. The scent is bright and clean, perfect for your desk in the morning or the living room while tidying up. The ratio above is good for mixing a bottle ahead of time; use 5 drops of the mix each time, and turn it on as you start planning your week.

How it unfolds

On opening. Bergamot (light citrus with a floral edge, Earl Grey style); sweet orange (ripe, sweet, cheerful and round); eucalyptus radiata (gently cool, softer than classic eucalyptus) 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.


Method

Diffuser
Bergamot 4 · Sweet Orange 3 · Eucalyptus Radiata 1 drops in 200–300 ml of water. Run for 30–60 minutes, then take a break.

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 fresh-start Monday in a diffuser?
Add Bergamot 4 · Sweet Orange 3 · Eucalyptus Radiata 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 bergamot?
Swap bergamot for lemon or lemongrass — same citrus family. The blend will shift a little: lemon is fresh, bright and clean.
When is the best time to use fresh-start Monday?
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.
