salty all day, now zesty

3 oils · Citrus · Floral · Minty · code BL-0153


You've been sharp-tongued all day; now let lemon do the zesty part in a much nicer way. Lemon leads bright and sunny, Roman chamomile softens it with a sweet apple-tea note, and peppermint blows in an icy-cool breeze. The scent is fresh and clean, perfect for the living room or the kitchen after cooking. For a room of about 12 m², use 3, 2 and 1 drops; peppermint is quite strong, so don't go above one drop.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lemon (fresh, bright and clean); peppermint (cool, sharp and clean) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Roman chamomile (like ripe apple and dry hay, soft and mellow) 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.

Safety

Photosensitizing

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.


FAQ

How do I use salty all day, now zesty in a diffuser?
Add Lemon 4 · Roman Chamomile 2 · Peppermint 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 lemon?
Swap lemon for sweet orange or bergamot — same citrus family. The blend will shift a little: sweet orange is ripe, sweet, cheerful and round.
When is the best time to use salty all day, now zesty?
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.
