How do I use post-gym, pre-desk in a diffuser?

Add Lemongrass 3 · Geranium 3 · Frankincense 2 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 lemongrass?

Swap lemongrass for lemon or sweet orange — same citrus family. The blend will shift a little: lemon is fresh, bright and clean.

When is the best time to use post-gym, pre-desk?

Best in the morning, early afternoon, or right after a nap; avoid using it close to bedtime.

Post-gym, pre-desk · Lemongrass, Geranium, Frankincense blend

Gym's done, work's next, and you're still running hot. Six drops of lemongrass open bright and zesty-cool, five drops of geranium add a green, rosy note, and four drops of frankincense lay down a warm, steady base. Fifteen drops suit a large room; for a small one, cut it in half. Great for the locker room or your desk after a morning workout.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lemongrass (fresh, green and clean) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Geranium (green and rosy, fresh and balanced) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.

What remains. Frankincense (resinous with a light lemony note, deep and still) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.

Safety

Skin irritant

Lemongrass 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.
