scrolling old trip photos

4 oils · Citrus · Floral · Woody · code BL-0563


Flipping through last year's travel album, and suddenly you miss the sunshine. Three drops of lavender are soft like a field of purple flowers, bergamot and lemon add bright citrus peel, and sandalwood lines it with warm, creamy wood so the memories linger longer. Good for an evening printing photos and making a scrapbook. Run the diffuser in a small living room; in about 20 minutes the scent will have spread.

How it unfolds

On opening. Bergamot (light citrus with a floral edge, Earl Grey style); lemon (fresh, bright 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. Sandalwood (creamy, smooth and long-lasting) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.

Safety

Photosensitizing

Bergamot and 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 scrolling old trip photos in a diffuser?
Add Lavender 3 · Bergamot 2 · Lemon 1 · Sandalwood 1 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 lavender?
Swap lavender for geranium or ylang ylang — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: geranium is green and rosy, fresh and balanced.
When is the best time to use scrolling old trip photos?
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.
