a fresh spring blend?

[Guest guest]

I'm relatively new to blending (actually very new), but with a whiff of spring

this past weekend, I'm thinking I'd like to put together a spring blend -

something fresh, clean, bright, new, green ...

 

I'm looking for suggestions on what oils to start with the develop such a

scent....I have a hand cream that reminds me of what I'm looking for - it

contains, according to the label - neroli, bergamot, sweet orance -and lemon

grass. I'm familiar with all the scents EXCEPT neroli - is the neroli the one

that gives it the herabally green smell?

 

Any other suggestions for oils I might try in my blend to get the fresh 'green'

aroma I'm going for?

 

Thanks!

neroli, shouldn't, if it was true (blossoms only) Neroli... but I think

petitgrain (the leaves of the bitter orange) would be lovely there... and

we have a bergamot mint that I think smells wonderfully 'spring like "
