sofa after the cat nap

3 oils · Citrus · Herbal · code BL-2411


The sofa after the boss cat has lounged on it all afternoon. Sweet orange and eucalyptus stand side by side, sweet-fresh and clear-cool, while lime closes with a slightly bitter citrus peel. Since cats are sensitive to essential oils, only run the diffuser while your cat is in another room with the door open; never spray the sofa where it likes to lie. Vacuuming up the fur first is the key step.

How it unfolds

On opening. Sweet orange (ripe, sweet, cheerful and round); eucalyptus (strong, cool and wide open); lime (zesty, gently tart and very fresh) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

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

Lime 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 sofa after the cat nap in a diffuser?
Add Sweet Orange 4 · Eucalyptus 4 · Lime 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 sweet orange?
Swap sweet orange for lemon or bergamot — same citrus family. The blend will shift a little: lemon is fresh, bright and clean.
When is the best time to use sofa after the cat nap?
Use it after cooking or cleaning, in the bathroom, near the shoe cabinet, or in rooms shared with pets.
