Monday main character energy

4 oils · Floral · Herbal · Minty · Woody · code BL-1224


Fired up for the new week and ready to take on everything. This is a big-bottle recipe: sixty drops of cedarwood build a solid, dry wood base, forty drops of peppermint add a strong chill, rosemary brings a sharp green note, and ten drops of ylang-ylang add a sweet floral touch. Every Monday morning, pour five drops into the diffuser. Made for the Monday office, and it'll last you all month.

How it unfolds

On opening. Peppermint (cool, sharp and clean); rosemary (cool, green, herbal and invigorating) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Ylang ylang (rich, creamy, tropical and sweetly floral) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.

What remains. Cedarwood (dry and warm, like a wooden chest and pencil shavings) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.

FAQ

How do I use Monday main character energy in a diffuser?
Add Cedarwood 4 · Peppermint 2 · Rosemary 1 · Ylang Ylang 1 drops to 200–300 ml of water. In a room under 15 m², use 1–2 drops less; in a room over 25 m², add 1 more drop of the main oil.
What can I use instead of cedarwood?
Swap cedarwood for sandalwood or patchouli — same woody family. The blend will shift a little: sandalwood is creamy, smooth and long-lasting.
When is the best time to use Monday main character energy?
Best in the morning, early afternoon, or right after a nap; avoid using it close to bedtime.
