itching is so last season

3 oils · Herbal · code BL-2582


Rosemary leads with green herbs as sharp as a freshly snapped sprig, citronella follows with that familiar bold grass, and tea tree closes green and clean. An alert, tidy scent for a home office or study corner on rainy evenings. Use a diffuser rather than applying to skin; if rosemary feels harsh, use 1 drop less and add 1 drop of citronella.

How it unfolds

On opening. Rosemary (cool, green, herbal and invigorating); citronella (strong, green and slightly lemony); tea tree (green, medicinal and clean) 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.
