lemongrass takes the heat

3 oils · Citrus · Minty · code BL-2954


Bergamot leads with an elegant, gentle citrus note, spearmint cools and sweetens, and lemongrass keeps a fresh grassy scent that makes your head feel clearer. Just right for hot days when you snap easily, at the office or in your own room. Take a few slow breaths next to the diffuser, then drink a glass of cool water.

How it unfolds

On opening. Bergamot (light citrus with a floral edge, Earl Grey style); spearmint (sweet and cool, softer than peppermint, with a hint of chewing gum); lemongrass (fresh, green 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.

Safety

Photosensitizing Skin irritant

Bergamot can make skin sensitive to sunlight when applied topically — avoid sun and tanning beds for 12 hours after applying.

Lemongrass 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.
