fried dried fish aftermath

4 oils · Citrus · Herbal · Minty · code BL-2483


Fried dried fish is delicious, but the smell outstays the meal. Lemon pops first with fresh tang, peppermint and eucalyptus follow to cool the air right down, and thyme adds a dry herbal note to cut through the cooking oil. Use it for the kitchen and dining room: switch on the diffuser as soon as the stove is off and crack a window. Closed kitchen? Add 1 more drop of lemon.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lemon (fresh, bright and clean); peppermint (cool, sharp and clean); eucalyptus (strong, cool and wide open) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Thyme (warm, dry and herbal with a touch of spice) 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.

Safety

Photosensitizing Skin irritant

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

Thyme 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.
