Introduction To Diffuser Blends For Summer
Well, it makes a change for me to be penning this from the garden! It’s high summer here in the UK but sadly, it has been mostly raining. However, today is stunning and so I wanted to share some of that summer joy with you.
I spend a lot of time experimenting with new diffuser blends for our Fragrance Oil Of The Week and Oil Of The Month articles. It occurred to me how easy it is to fall back on the tropical holiday vibe at this time of year. So let’s shake things up a bit!
First, I want to focus on the diffuser blends you might need. So there is one for Hayfever, an insect repelling gem and then one to evoke a convivial atmosphere and get your summer party rocking!
Secondly, I wanted to bring you diffuser blends that simply fill your home and garden with the spirit and sheer joy of high summer.
What Do I Need To Make Diffuser Blends For Summer?
“Very little” is the answer to this question!
A small amount of equipment, that ideally, you will now keep only for working with essential oils and fragrance oils.
You Need
- A small measuring jug
- Stainless steel spoon or glass stirrer
- A funnel
- 5 ml dropper bottle
How Do I Make Diffuser Blends For Summer?
Diffuser blends for summer are super simple and a great project for beginners.
- First, protect your surface because fragrance oils and essential oils stain.
- Read the instructions through and check you understand the process before beginning.
- Carefully measure your essential oils and /or fragrance oils into your jug.
- Stir to combine them thoroughly.
- Use a funnel to decant them into a 5ml dropper bottle. Water and oil proof labels stick better to clean, oil free bottles. Funnels help bottles stay clean and oil free.
- List all ingredients clearly and date.
- Please annotate your label as UNDILUTED for safety reasons.
Diffuser Blends For Summer With Essential Oils
Essential oils are teeming with active properties thanks to their chemical constituents, and it is from these that we can derive a myriad of exciting benefits. We can harness these constituents in our Diffuser Blends for summer and use them in a variety of interesting ways.

The Lime trees are late in flower on the village green this year. At a féte last week, the pollen was so abundant that people were rubbing their eyes and sneezing everywhere. Even today, I can smell it. The aroma of the Linden Blossom is so strong.
Hayfever is miserable and the bane of many people’s lives. This is a Diffuser Blend you can use pro-actively, as well as reactively, to help mitigate some of the symptoms of Hayfever.
Melissa is renowned for its efficacy in relieving the symptoms of Hayfever. Lavender and Ravensara contain anti-inflammatory constituents that we leverage to calm and soothe irritation.

Diffuser Blends For Summer With Fragrance Oils

Try experimenting by matching moods or party themes.

Notes on Diffuser Blends For Summer And Your Diffuser
You all have different types and brands of diffusers and it is impossible to advise you all accurately. Therefore, it will always be our first advice to consult your manufacturer's instructions and get their specific guidance on your own diffusers.
Some of the manufacturer’s guidance may state that you need to dilute your blend in some way. Always follow their instructions for how much to dilute and what to dilute it with.
Did you throw the instructions away with the box? You won’t be the first and definitely not the last! Where possible, follow your manufacturer's instructions. However, How To Use Vinevida Oils will give you some generalized advice that may prove helpful.
