long shower, forget the world

5 oils · Citrus · Floral · Herbal · Woody · code BL-0791


A really long shower to forget about everything. Five oils at three drops each: clary sage with sweet herb, silky rose, tart fresh lime, warm earthy patchouli and green-rose geranium. The scent is round, full and very relaxing. Good for the bathroom and bedroom in the evening. A small bathroom uses half the recipe, since steam makes the scent stronger.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lime (zesty, gently tart and very fresh) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Clary sage (sweet, herbal, slightly musky and unhurried); rose (deep, silky and luxurious); geranium (green and rosy, fresh and balanced) form the body of the scent and stay longest in the room.

What remains. Patchouli (like damp earth and dark wood, deeply sweet) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.

Safety

Photosensitizing

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

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.
