sea breeze in a bottle

4 oils · Citrus · Floral · Minty · Woody · code BL-0458


No beach nearby? Bring the sea breeze into your room. Lavender lays down a clean floral base, cypress adds green wood like the pine-like trees lining the shore, peppermint blows an icy stream through, and lemon sprinkles on bright, fresh peel. Great for sticky summer middays when the fan is on and you still feel hot. Place the diffuser upwind of the fan and the scent will spread through the room in no time.

How it unfolds

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

As it settles. Lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing); cypress (fresh, dry and clean like conifer wood) 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.

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 sea breeze in a bottle in a diffuser?
Add Lavender 3 · Cypress 2 · Peppermint 2 · Lemon 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 sea breeze in a bottle?
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.
