lucky money on New Year's Day

3 oils · Citrus · Floral · code BL-1469


The first day of Tet, the Lunar New Year, with a red envelope of lucky money in hand. Four drops of mandarin are sweet and juicy like the five-fruit tray, two drops of ylang-ylang bring sweet yellow flowers, and one drop of rose adds silky petals. This scent is full of New Year spirit, great for a living room welcoming holiday visitors. Switch on the diffuser while setting out the candy and snacks; for a full house, double it.

How it unfolds

On opening. Mandarin (gently sweet, softer than orange) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Ylang ylang (rich, creamy, tropical and sweetly floral); rose (deep, silky and luxurious) form the body of the scent and stay 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.
