long-haul road trip

2 oils · Herbal · Minty · code BL-1233


A long drive ahead, and you need to stay sharp. Four drops of rosemary open with a crisp green note, and three drops of spearmint add a pleasant, sweet coolness. Put a single drop on a wooden vent-clip diffuser, and don't overdo it in a closed car. Pull over every two hours, step outside to breathe some fresh air, then get back on the road.

How it unfolds

On opening. Rosemary (cool, green, herbal and invigorating); spearmint (sweet and cool, softer than peppermint, with a hint of chewing gum) 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.


Method

Diffuser
Rosemary 4 · Spearmint 3 drops in 200–300 ml of water. Run for 30–60 minutes, then take a break.

Rosemary 3 · Spearmint 2 drops, then top up with a carrier oil (jojoba or sweet almond). Dab on wrists and the back of the neck.
50 ml room spray
Rosemary 17 · Spearmint 13 drops + 1 teaspoon of food-grade alcohol, then top up with distilled water. Shake before spraying.
