Fifteen drops of sandalwood, warm like sand on a summer afternoon, then lemon, mandarin and sweet orange at five drops each, juicy like one glass of fruit juice with two straws. The scent of a summer romance at seventeen, clear and lingering. Premix the 30-drop batch; use a roller bottle in the afternoon and avoid the sun after applying.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lemon (fresh, bright and clean); mandarin (gently sweet, softer than orange); sweet orange (ripe, sweet, cheerful and round) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

What remains. Sandalwood (creamy, smooth and long-lasting) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.

Safety

Photosensitizing

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 summer crush at 17 in a diffuser?
Add Sandalwood 4 · Lemon 1 · Mandarin 1 · Sweet Orange 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 sandalwood?
Swap sandalwood for cedarwood or patchouli — same woody family. The blend will shift a little: cedarwood is dry and warm, like a wooden chest and pencil shavings.
When is the best time to use summer crush at 17?
Diffuse it in a room, or mix a roller to dab on your wrists (diluted in a carrier oil).
