Sunday morning gardening

4 oils · Floral · Herbal · Resinous & sweet · code BL-0275


Gloves, a little trowel and soil under your fingernails. Geranium makes up most of the blend with a fresh green-rose scent like just-crushed leaves, tea tree and thyme share equal parts adding clean green leaves and warm, spicy herbs, and myrrh lays a warm, slightly woody base. The scent is garden-fresh and green, perfect for a balcony or backyard. This is a big-bottle amount; use 5 drops of the mix each time.

How it unfolds

On opening. Tea tree (green, medicinal and clean) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Geranium (green and rosy, fresh and balanced); thyme (warm, dry and herbal with a touch of spice) form the body of the scent and stay longest in the room.

What remains. Myrrh (bittersweet, resinous, deep and classic) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.

Safety

Skin irritant

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 Sunday morning gardening in a diffuser?
Add Geranium 4 · Tea Tree 1 · Thyme 1 · Myrrh 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 geranium?
Swap geranium for lavender or ylang ylang — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: lavender is floral-herbal, clean and soothing.
When is the best time to use Sunday morning gardening?
Use it at the end of the day, on weekends, while reading or right after a shower — whenever you want everything to slow down a beat.
