squeaky-clean citrus morning

4 oils · Citrus · Minty · code BL-1385


Just stepped out of the shower, skin smelling lovely, hair still wet. Sweet orange, lemon, bergamot and peppermint split evenly at two drops each, for a cool, clear citrus wave like a brand-new bar of soap. The best spots are the bathroom and the bedroom in the morning. Try putting 2 drops on a bath towel hanging in the room, and next time you dry off, you'll carry a light scent.

How it unfolds

On opening. Sweet orange (ripe, sweet, cheerful and round); lemon (fresh, bright and clean); bergamot (light citrus with a floral edge, Earl Grey style); peppermint (cool, sharp and clean) 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.
