Lazy but it's done · Spearmint, Eucalyptus, Lemon blend

Lazy, but the work still gets done, and the secret is doing it bit by bit. Three drops of spearmint open sweet and cool, two drops each of eucalyptus and lemon add airy coolness and tart freshness, and one drop of lavender keeps a soft base. Great at your desk or on the sofa cuddling your laptop. Set a fifteen-minute timer; finish that chunk before you earn more lazy time.

How it unfolds

On opening. Spearmint (sweet and cool, softer than peppermint, with a hint of chewing gum); eucalyptus (strong, cool and wide open); 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.
