Quiet in the middle of traffic · Lemongrass, Frankincense, Tea Tree blend

Keeping a little stillness in the middle of noisy streets. Seven drops of lemongrass open with a vivid, fresh tang, frankincense and tea tree add warm resin and a clean green streak, and two drops of lavender smooth out the finish. Great for an apartment near a busy road or an office downtown. Tip: start the diffuser when you close the windows, and the space feels cut off from the traffic.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lemongrass (fresh, green and clean); tea tree (green, medicinal and clean) rise 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. 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.
