Swap lime for lemon or sweet orange — same citrus family. The blend will shift a little: lemon is fresh, bright and clean.

Gridlock, deep breaths · Lime, Myrrh, Eucalyptus blend

Three drops, three personalities: lime, sharp and zesty like fresh lime peel; myrrh, warm and deep with a rooty wood tone; and eucalyptus, airy and cool. The scent is natural, neat and clean, like a bare face that still looks put together. Good for a small bedroom or the bathroom while you get ready for work. Because the amount is small, this recipe is for spaces under 10m²; for a bigger room, just double all three.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lime (zesty, gently tart and very fresh); eucalyptus (strong, cool and wide open) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

What remains. Myrrh (bittersweet, resinous, deep and classic) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.
