Monday, still cute

3 oils · Citrus · Floral · Woody · code BL-1962


Monday morning feels less sluggish with six drops of cool, soft lavender, four drops of sweet orange lifting your mood, and two drops of cedarwood keeping a tidy woody base like a freshly cleared desk. Tired or not, Monday still calls for looking cute. Mix the twelve drops in a roller bottle; add more sweet orange for extra energy, or put 5 drops in the office diffuser.

How it unfolds

On opening. Sweet orange (ripe, sweet, cheerful and round) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing) 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.


Method
