weekend grocery run

3 oils · Floral · Resinous & sweet · code BL-1899


Myrrh leads, rustic like a canvas shopping bag, sweet ylang ylang fills in like a basket of fresh fruit, and one drop of geranium adds a touch of fresh green. Relaxed and effortless, it suits afternoon supermarket runs in flip-flops and a T-shirt. Mix the eleven drops in a roller bottle; reduce the ylang ylang if you want it to lean more woody.

How it unfolds

As it settles. Ylang ylang (rich, creamy, tropical and sweetly floral); geranium (green and rosy, fresh and balanced) 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.


Method

Diffuser

FAQ

How do I use weekend grocery run in a diffuser?
Add Myrrh 4 · Ylang Ylang 3 · Geranium 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 myrrh?
Swap myrrh for frankincense or vanilla — same resinous & sweet family. The blend will shift a little: frankincense is resinous with a light lemony note, deep and still.
When is the best time to use weekend grocery run?
Diffuse it in a room, or mix a roller to dab on your wrists (diluted in a carrier oil).
