one lime-slow day

3 oils · Citrus · Floral · code BL-0452


Three oils, three drops each, like a day when you don't need to try too hard. Lime pops up first with tart, fresh green citrus, while lavender and Roman chamomile follow, one clean purple flower, the other gently sweet like floral tea. Good for an afternoon on the balcony with ice clinking in your glass. For a fresher morning version, add one drop of lime; for a softer evening one, add one drop of chamomile.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lime (zesty, gently tart and very fresh) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Roman chamomile (like ripe apple and dry hay, soft and mellow); lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing) 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.

Safety

Photosensitizing

Lime can make skin sensitive to sunlight when applied topically — avoid sun and tanning beds for 12 hours after applying.

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.


FAQ

How do I use one lime-slow day in a diffuser?
Add Roman Chamomile 3 · Lavender 3 · Lime 3 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 Roman chamomile?
Swap Roman chamomile for geranium or ylang ylang — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: geranium is green and rosy, fresh and balanced.
When is the best time to use one lime-slow day?
Use it at the end of the day, on weekends, while reading or right after a shower — whenever you want everything to slow down a beat.
