Diffusers, roller bottles, carrier oils, and essential oils—what do they all have in common?
When used together they all help create your perfect blend.

- A particular type of fragrance (spicy, citrus, floral)
- Mixing different aromatic strengths for a uniquely powerful blend (top-middle-base notes)

SUMMARY
In order to get the most benefit from your essential oils, create a blend by focusing on what you really want the most for your specific issue or desired scent.

2 middle note drops
1 base note drop
