spicy but sweet

2 oils · Floral · Warm spice · code BL-1819


Sparkly, lightly spicy pink pepper and soft, green rosy geranium split evenly at two drops each, so it's a little mischievous and very lovable. A compact recipe that's easy to mix. Great for a mini pocket roller bottle or a diffuser on your study desk. For a sweeter scent, add one drop of geranium; for more mischief, add pink pepper.

How it unfolds

On opening. Pink pepper (lightly spicy, sparkling and berry-like) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Geranium (green and rosy, fresh and balanced) forms the body of the scent and stays 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.


Method

Diffuser
Pink Pepper 2 · Geranium 2 drops in 200–300 ml of water. Run for 30–60 minutes, then take a break.
10 ml roller
Pink Pepper 2 · Geranium 2 drops, then top up with a carrier oil (jojoba or sweet almond). Dab on wrists and the back of the neck.
50 ml room spray
Pink Pepper 15 · Geranium 15 drops + 1 teaspoon of food-grade alcohol, then top up with distilled water. Shake before spraying.

FAQ

How do I use spicy but sweet in a diffuser?
Add Pink Pepper 2 · Geranium 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 pink pepper?
Swap pink pepper for cinnamon or coriander — same warm spice family. The blend will shift a little: cinnamon is spicy-sweet, hot and warm.
When is the best time to use spicy but sweet?
Diffuse it in a room, or mix a roller to dab on your wrists (diluted in a carrier oil).
