hair smells like BBQ

4 oils · Floral · Herbal · code BL-2467


Back from a barbecue dinner with your hair smelling of smoke. Tea tree and thyme stand side by side, clean green and dry spicy herbs, while lavender and geranium split evenly, gentle and green rose. Run the bathroom diffuser while you wash your hair. Hang your jacket out on the balcony overnight so the smoke smell fades.

How it unfolds

On opening. Tea tree (green, medicinal and clean) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Thyme (warm, dry and herbal with a touch of spice); lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing); geranium (green and rosy, fresh and balanced) 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

Skin irritant

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.


FAQ

How do I use hair smells like BBQ in a diffuser?
Add Tea Tree 3 · Thyme 3 · Lavender 1 · Geranium 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.

Swap tea tree for rosemary or eucalyptus — same herbal family. The blend will shift a little: rosemary is cool, green, herbal and invigorating.

Use it after cooking or cleaning, in the bathroom, near the shoe cabinet, or in rooms shared with pets.
