Summer Essential Oil Blend
Lemon-Lavender is a perfect scent for summer. The lemon brings out the citrus that we all expect from summer with the hint of lavender.
Autumn Essential Oil Blend
Cypress-Clove is a great combination for autumn. The cypress makes us thing of the season to come, but the clove keeps us right in the moment as we prepare to hunker down and belly up to the table this season.
Winter Essential Oil Blend
Cinnamon-Orange is a favorite winter blend that has the spice of cinnamon that makes us want to cozy up with the brightness of orange that we need as the snow falls.
Spring Essential Oil Blend
Lemongrass-Rosemary creates the fresh fragrance we all need after a long winter indoors. The lemongrass lifts us while the rosemary creates a sense that we will soon be outdoors.
