Eucalyptus blends
Eucalyptus is a must in our diffuser. In order to reduce it's medicinal smell, I try to add it to lavendar. When I add it to lemon is makes the house smell like a sterilized hospital. Eucalyptus, though, is very useful simply being diffused if you like that sort of smell. It's very clearing and has helped our family stay well all flu season.
