two-day staycation

3 oils · Citrus · Minty · code BL-1508


Two days off without leaving the city. Three drops of lemongrass are zingy and fresh, two drops of sweet orange are cheerful, and one drop of peppermint is icy cool. The scent is like a tropical hotel lobby, great for the living room or bedroom when you want to rest without going anywhere. Switch on the diffuser, put fresh sheets on the bed, order some food, and the staycation begins.

How it unfolds

On opening. Lemongrass (fresh, green and clean); sweet orange (ripe, sweet, cheerful and round); peppermint (cool, sharp and clean) rise first, clearest in the first 10–15 minutes.

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.

Safety

Skin irritant

Lemongrass 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 two-day staycation in a diffuser?
Add Lemongrass 3 · Sweet Orange 2 · Peppermint 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 lemongrass?
Swap lemongrass for lemon or bergamot — same citrus family. The blend will shift a little: lemon is fresh, bright and clean.
When is the best time to use two-day staycation?
Use it when guests are coming, on weekends, after tidying the house, or whenever you want a little good mood.
