Working at your usual cafe when the pressure's on and things need to get done right now. Three drops of holy basil open with a pungent, spicy herbal note, warm like sun-dried perilla leaves, three drops of rosemary add sharp green notes, and a single drop of lemon brightens the opening. Great for a work or study desk in the afternoon. Holy basil is quite distinctive, so newcomers can start with two drops.

On opening. Rosemary (cool, green, herbal and invigorating); lemon (fresh, bright and clean) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.
As it settles. Holy basil (warm and spicy with a clove-like edge) 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.
Lemon can make skin sensitive to sunlight when applied topically — avoid sun and tanning beds for 12 hours after applying.
Holy Basil 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.
