Zesty Fresh Air

Get ready for a zesty adventure with Orange Essential Oil! Imagine your home turning into a citrusy wonderland just by using your furnace filter. This powerhouse oil doesn't just make your space smell amazing; it's like a mood-boosting, happiness-inducing party for your senses!

Say hello to good vibes, cheerfulness, and a home that's bursting with the vibrant scent of oranges. 🍊✨

Ingredient:

 

Instructions:

  • Start by removing the furnace filter from its slot. This unassuming filter becomes the perfect canvas for his essential oil magic.
  • Take the Orange Essential Oil and put 10-20 drops directly onto the filter. Adjusting the number of drops allows you to tailor the scent's intensity to your liking.
  • To prevent the filter from becoming too oily or messy, place the drops on the filter's side, letting them spread naturally.
  • For a quick burst of fragrance, put the filter back into the furnace, allowing the essential oil to evaporate and fill the air with its delightful aroma.
  • If you desire a more sustained effect, remove the orifice reducer or dropper from the essential oil bottle and set it inside the furnace, next to the filter. This way, the scent will gradually diffuse over the next week, maintaining a long-lasting freshness.
