someone else paid for buffet

4 oils · Citrus · Herbal · code BL-1597


Someone else is paying for the buffet, and your belly is full. Three drops of basil bring spicy-sweet leaves, sweet orange and lemon, two drops each, add juicy freshness and bright tartness, and one drop of thyme brings warm, spicy herbs. The scent is like a table laden with fresh herbs, great for the kitchen or dining room. Switch it on after the meal so the fresh scent replaces the food smells.

How it unfolds

On opening. Sweet orange (ripe, sweet, cheerful and round); lemon (fresh, bright and clean) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Basil (sweet and green with a hint of anise); thyme (warm, dry and herbal with a touch of spice) 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 Skin irritant

Lemon can make skin sensitive to sunlight when applied topically — avoid sun and tanning beds for 12 hours after applying.

Thyme can irritate skin — dilute well and patch-test on a small area first.

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 someone else paid for buffet in a diffuser?
Add Basil 3 · Sweet Orange 2 · Lemon 2 · Thyme 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 basil?
Swap basil for rosemary or eucalyptus — same herbal family. The blend will shift a little: rosemary is cool, green, herbal and invigorating.
When is the best time to use someone else paid for buffet?
Use it when guests are coming, on weekends, after tidying the house, or whenever you want a little good mood.
