As spring arrives, essential oils can echo the lovely floral and citrus aromas found in flowering plants in the warmer weather. Bring the spring inside with essential oils in diffusers, topical use, and even in DIY beauty projects. Spring is also a great time to refresh the home with cleansing and revitalizing oils.
The best essential oils for spring include lavender, geranium, lemon, pink grapefruit, rosemary, and clary sage. For spring floral scents, lavender and geranium are popular.

For citrus notes, lemon and pink grapefruit are spring favorites. Lemonis a bright, fresh oil that is often used in spring cleaning. Pink grapefruit is a citrusy scent that promotes a positive energy and mood.
Spring herb aromas of rosemary and clary sage are also wonderful to keep in your pocket. Rosemaryhas a strong herby scent that helps promote active, positive energy. Clary sage is a sweet herb scent that is often associated with creativity and inspiration.
All of these spring essential oils can be used in diffuser blends. Although we’ve created a few diffuser blends for you to reference below, get creative with your diffuser blends and try new things! If you don’t have a diffuser, you can also make mixes to use in room sprays or topically with carrier oils.
