Blend recipes · Energy & alertness
The 3 p.m. sleepiness crashes over you like a wave. Four drops of cedarwood lay a steady dry wood base, one drop of ylang ylang adds a touch of sweet florals, and one drop of peppermint brings a wake-up cool streak. Great for a desk right after your lunch break. If you're still yawning, raise peppermint to two drops, stand up, and walk a lap around the room.

On opening. Peppermint (cool, sharp and clean) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.
As it settles. Ylang ylang (rich, creamy, tropical and sweetly floral) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.
What remains. Cedarwood (dry and warm, like a wooden chest and pencil shavings) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.
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.
