Let sit for a few days before using to allow the aromas to blend properly.

CITRUS

For a fresh, invigorating scent, a citrus freshener is perfect.

1/2 cup grain alcohol
20 drops of lemon essential oil

However, you can use other citrus essential oils, such as orange, grapefruit, or a combination of these.

Just mix everything together and shake well.

VANILLA

Vanilla has a sweet, welcoming scent that many people love.

1/2 cup distilled water
1/2 cup grain alcohol
20 drops of vanilla essential oil
Just mix everything together and shake well.

EUCALIPTUS

Eucalyptus has a fresh, clean scent that can help open the airways and invigorate the senses.

So, to prepare, simply replace the lavender essential oil with eucalyptus essential oil:

1/2 cup distilled water
1/2 cup grain alcohol
20 drops of eucalyptus essential oil
Follow the same process: mix and shake well.

JASMINE

Finally, there is jasmine for an air freshener that promotes a sweet and romantic floral scent.

In the same proportions as other flavorings, you only need to include jasmine essential oil instead of lavender essential oil:

1/2 cup distilled water
1/2 cup grain alcohol
20 drops of jasmine essential oil
Try to mix well and shake the bottle.

Anyway, remember: the key to a good home air freshener is the quality of the ingredients. Furthermore, always use pure essential oils and grain alcohol to obtain the best results!
