Blend recipes · Energy & alertness
Done feeling wiped out; get up and keep going. This is a bottle recipe: fifteen drops of peppermint open with a powerful chill, ten drops of eucalyptus add airy coolness, and five drops each of spearmint and camphor bring sweet mint and a soft, warm herbal note. Use just four drops at a time, since it's quite strong. Ideal for your desk late in the afternoon; avoid running it right before bed.

On opening. Peppermint (cool, sharp and clean); eucalyptus (strong, cool and wide open); spearmint (sweet and cool, softer than peppermint, with a hint of chewing gum); camphor (icy, strong and clean) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.
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.
Camphor can irritate skin — dilute well and patch-test on a small area first.
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.
