gap year, fully planned

4 oils · Citrus · Woody · Resinous & sweet · Warm spice · code BL-1848


Sweet orange opens cheerfully, coriander seed and juniper follow with a sweet spice and cool conifer, like a travel map full of milestones, and frankincense closes steady. Every stop is marked, but there's still room for surprises. Great for a workspace when you're making long-term plans. Premix the eighteen drops; use 5 drops in the diffuser or make a roller bottle.

How it unfolds

On opening. Sweet orange (ripe, sweet, cheerful and round) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Coriander (warm and seedy, lightly sweet, with a whisper of spice); juniper (green and berry-like, with clean resinous wood) form the body of the scent and stay longest in the room.

What remains. Frankincense (resinous with a light lemony note, deep and still) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.

FAQ

How do I use gap year, fully planned in a diffuser?
Add Sweet Orange 3 · Coriander 2 · Juniper 2 · Frankincense 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 sweet orange?
Swap sweet orange for lemon or bergamot — same citrus family. The blend will shift a little: lemon is fresh, bright and clean.
When is the best time to use gap year, fully planned?
Diffuse it in a room, or mix a roller to dab on your wrists (diluted in a carrier oil).
