Take out the emotional trash · Palmarosa, Lavender blend

Emotional trash goes out with the garbage, not into bed with you. Eight drops of palmarosa lead with rose blended with fresh grass, sweet with a faint lemony edge; four drops of lavender make a gentle cushion underneath. The overall feel is light, easy to use and loved by almost everyone. Run it in a bedroom of about 20 m², with a notebook nearby to write down three things you want to leave behind today.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Palmarosa (sweet and grassy with a rosy note); lavender (floral-herbal, clean and soothing) 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.
