How do I use weekend shoe closet clean-out in a diffuser?

Add Tea Tree 2 · Lime 2 · Lemongrass 1 · Camphor 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 tea tree?

Swap tea tree for rosemary or eucalyptus — same herbal family. The blend will shift a little: rosemary is cool, green, herbal and invigorating.

When is the best time to use weekend shoe closet clean-out?

Use it after cooking or cleaning, in the bathroom, near the shoe cabinet, or in rooms shared with pets.

How it unfolds

On opening. Tea tree (green, medicinal and clean); lime (zesty, gently tart and very fresh); lemongrass (fresh, green and clean); camphor (icy, strong 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

Photosensitizing Skin irritant

Lime can make skin sensitive to sunlight when applied topically — avoid sun and tanning beds for 12 hours after applying.

Lemongrass and Camphor 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.
