Blend recipes · Energy & alertness
Six drops of lemon lead, bright and clean like a freshly wiped window. Spearmint backs it up with sweet coolness, while ylang-ylang adds a soft layer of yellow flowers that takes the edge off the tartness. Great for anyone staring at a screen for hours who needs a pleasant scent to change the air. Tip: after every 50 minutes of work, look away from the screen and take a few breaths near the diffuser.

On opening. Lemon (fresh, bright and clean); spearmint (sweet and cool, softer than peppermint, with a hint of chewing gum) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.
As it settles. Ylang ylang (rich, creamy, tropical and sweetly floral) forms the body of the scent and stays 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.
Lemon 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.
