Monday, time to get up · Black Tea, Lemon, Ginger Grass blend

Lemon-mint tea, gently spicy ginger grass; eyes pop open.

It's Monday, time to get up: black tea with lemon and peppermint pops your eyes open instantly, and gently spicy ginger grass warms you up. Great for the bedroom right after you turn off the alarm, or the bathroom in the morning. Set the diffuser to switch on a few minutes before the alarm, and open the curtains as soon as you are up so daylight lends a hand.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lemon (fresh, bright and clean); peppermint (cool, sharp and clean) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Black tea (steeped, warm and slightly malty); ginger grass (warm and grassy, slightly spicy with a sweet root note) 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.
