Lime sounds like it might be harsh, but here sweet orange and mandarin wrap it in a hug. Three drops of sweet orange lead, juicy and round; mandarin adds sweetness; and two drops of lime keep a green, tart streak for alertness. This friendly citrus blend suits the dining table, living room or car. Tip: use it instead of a scented candle when you have guests, since everyone loves citrus.

On opening. Sweet orange (ripe, sweet, cheerful and round); lime (zesty, gently tart and very fresh); mandarin (gently sweet, softer than orange) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.
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.
Lime 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.
