rush hour bus ride

3 oils · Floral · Herbal · code BL-2003


Three drops of sharp green rosemary help your mind feel sharper on the early bus, while geranium and ylang ylang at two drops each add a fresh, sweet floral. Light and clean, it won't bother the person sitting next to you. Mix the seven drops in a roller bottle; apply just a little, enough that only you can smell it when you raise your hand.

How it unfolds

On opening. Rosemary (cool, green, herbal and invigorating) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Geranium (green and rosy, fresh and balanced); ylang ylang (rich, creamy, tropical and sweetly floral) 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.
