"Refreshing and uplifting! Great for morning diffusing."
Highlight: The bright, tangy citrus that wakes up a room in minutes.
Grapefruit (Citrus paradisi) delivers a bright, tart, sunlit citrus aroma with fresh, zesty, distinctly tangy undertones - the crisp, awakening scent of pink grapefruit peel. Cold-pressed from fresh grapefruit peels, this pure essential oil is a top note that lifts every citrus blend it touches and creates a bright, cheerful aromatic atmosphere in minutes. Sharper and tangier than Orange, sweeter than Lemon - the citrus that wakes up a room.

"I accidentally wrote a review for the anxiety blend instead of this one that I've been using. However I am sure the anxiety blend is also wonderful, this oil is the absolute BEST for anxiety and stress relief! I work regularly with this blend for myself and my clients and I have to say it is truly one of a kind! It really works wonders and I'm so happy to have discovered it! If you're looking for a good oil to keep on hand for stress relief and anxiety, grab a bottle! You won't be disappointed."
