smiling at my phone

4 oils · Citrus · Floral · code BL-1371


Grinning to yourself and nobody knows why. Bergamot opens elegant, geranium and lemon slip in with green rose and fresh tartness, and a single drop of ylang-ylang settles in sweetly. Keep it on your desk for those quiet happy moments, especially while you're texting someone. Use a mini diffuser for a small corner; for a big room, double everything.

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. 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.

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 smiling at my phone in a diffuser?
Add Bergamot 3 · Geranium 2 · Lemon 2 · Ylang Ylang 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 bergamot?
Swap bergamot for sweet orange or lemongrass — same citrus family. The blend will shift a little: sweet orange is ripe, sweet, cheerful and round.
When is the best time to use smiling at my phone?
Use it when guests are coming, on weekends, after tidying the house, or whenever you want a little good mood.
