tired, so sleep already

3 oils · Citrus · Floral · Resinous & sweet · code BL-0008


The whole orange family shows up: neroli brings clean, sweet white flowers, bergamot is fresh with a subtle bitter edge, and warm, resinous frankincense pulls everything down to settle. The day has asked enough of you; now all you need is a nice-smelling room and a pillow. You can start the diffuser right after a warm shower, and add 1 drop of frankincense if you want a deeper finish.

How it unfolds

On opening. Bergamot (light citrus with a floral edge, Earl Grey style) rises first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

As it settles. Neroli (white-floral, honeyed and clear) forms the body of the scent and stays longest in the room.

What remains. Frankincense (resinous with a light lemony note, deep and still) sinks in and lingers after the diffuser is off.

Safety

Photosensitizing

Bergamot 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 tired, so sleep already in a diffuser?
Add Neroli 4 · Bergamot 3 · Frankincense 3 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 neroli?
Swap neroli for lavender or geranium — same floral family. The blend will shift a little: lavender is floral-herbal, clean and soothing.
When is the best time to use tired, so sleep already?
Run the diffuser for 20–30 minutes before bed with the door closed, then switch it off or set a timer when you get into bed.
