Grinding till 5pm · Peppermint, Rosemary, Lime blend

Working straight through to five o'clock, no breaks halfway. Eight drops of peppermint open with a strong, icy chill, six drops of rosemary add a sharp green edge, four drops of lime bring a tart zing, and two drops of sandalwood hold a smooth woody base. Premix all twenty drops and use five per session. Made for the office on packed days, and yes, still eat lunch on time.

How it unfolds

On opening. Peppermint (cool, sharp and clean); rosemary (cool, green, herbal and invigorating); lime (zesty, gently tart and very fresh) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

What remains. Sandalwood (creamy, smooth and long-lasting) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.
