home after the picnic

4 oils · Citrus · Floral · Herbal · code BL-2218


A whole day out on a picnic, plenty of sun and wind, and back home you just want a cool, airy room. Eucalyptus radiata and lavender stand level, softly cool and gentle, while tea tree and lemon add a clean green, bright touch. Good for the living room after the trip, while you unpack and shower. Ten drops in a diffuser for a large room, 30 minutes.

How it unfolds

On opening. Eucalyptus radiata (gently cool, softer than classic eucalyptus); tea tree (green, medicinal and clean); lemon (fresh, bright and clean) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing) forms the body of the scent and stays 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

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 the “home after the picnic” blend in a diffuser?
Add Eucalyptus Radiata 3 · Lavender 3 · Tea Tree 2 · Lemon 2 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 eucalyptus radiata?

Use it in closed rooms, on humid days, in monsoon season or after long hours of air conditioning; diffuse in short 20 to 30 minute runs.
