10 Diffuser Blends For Summer Fun
Summer is here! Bring on the sunshine, warm weather, and all the fun activities. Whatever your summer looks like- traveling, picnics, playing with the kids- diffuser blends are a fun way to bring summer scents inside.
Whether you want a citrusy, floral blend that brings the outdoors in or a cooling, minty blend to refresh you after being out in the sun, essential oils are one of the best ways to naturally freshen and scent the air.
Summer Diffuser Essential Oils
There are lots of different essential oils to pick from when it comes to summer diffuser blends. A lot of it depends on what you like the best.
Citrus Oils: I love using citrus oils all the time but especially during the summer. They have such a bright, uplifting fragrance that feels like bringing the sunshine inside. Some favorites are Orange, Grapefruit, Lime, and Tangerine.
Floral Oils: For some, nothing says summer like the smell of flowers. You can go for a classic scent with Lavender, a summer staple with Geranium, or something more tropical with Ylang Ylang. Floral and citrus oils also blend very well together.
Minty Oils: I think the minty essential oils are great for summer diffuser blends because they bring some coolness to the summer heat. Peppermint and Wintergreen are favorites, but Spearmint also adds a refreshing twist.
Herbal Oils: If you want to be reminded of a summer herb garden, try adding some oils like Basil, Oregano, Clary Sage, or Rosemary to your blends. One of my favorite new discoveries is Marjoram, which was known as the ‘herb of happiness’ to the Romans.
