3 oils · Citrus · Herbal · Woody · code BL-2985


Just four drops, yet so refreshing to the eyes: tart, bright lemon, green and peppery basil, and pine bringing a whiff of evergreen forest. The scent is tidy, clean and very green, perfect for a desk surrounded by houseplants, a study table or the bathroom. For rooms larger than 20 m², double the ratio; in a small room, keep it as is.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lemon (fresh, bright and clean) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Basil (sweet and green with a hint of anise); pine (green and resinous, like a forest walk) 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

Lemon 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 green on green on green in a diffuser?
Add Lemon 2 · Basil 1 · Pine 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 lemon?
Swap lemon for sweet orange or bergamot — same citrus family. The blend will shift a little: sweet orange is ripe, sweet, cheerful and round.
When is the best time to use green on green on green?
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.
