tōgether Kit dōTERRA

Lavender essential oil is the most widely used oil in the dōTERRA range, and the first one to recommend to someone just starting out. This is true lavender, not the lavandin that covers the fields photographed in Provence: more floral and less camphoraceous, it goes to distillation within twenty-four hours of cutting, which holds on to its most volatile notes.

Key benefits

• Soothing properties, used to relax the body and lift the mood.
• Encourages a feeling of calm and a relaxing environment.
• Soothes and moisturises dry skin.
• Helps maintain thick, healthy-looking hair.
• Widely used in cosmetics and perfumery to promote clear, healthy skin.

Peppermint essential oil is one of dōTERRA’s best sellers, and one of the three oils the brand recommends for beginners. A hybrid of water mint and spearmint, it is grown in Oregon, where abundant rainfall gives it a high menthol content: the menthol is what makes it so fresh.

Key benefits

• Rich in menthol, which gives it its intense freshness, in the mouth as on the skin.
• Flavours smoothies, desserts, drinks and savoury dishes with a powerful minty taste.
• One drop in a tall glass of water, after a hearty meal.
• Diffused, its minty aroma creates an atmosphere conducive to mental clarity and focus.
• Provides a cooling sensation during a massage, diluted, on the neck and shoulders.

Lemon essential oil is one of dōTERRA’s best sellers, and one of the few oils that works as well in the kitchen as around the house. It is cold pressed from the peel rather than distilled, which gives it that sharp, instantly recognisable aroma.

Key benefits

• Cleans household surfaces, freshens the air and helps remove sticky residue and grease.
• Can be used to give water a refreshing flavour or for a wide range of savoury recipes and sweet desserts.
• Cold pressed from lemon peel to preserve its delicate nature and its valuable, powerful properties.
• Uplifting and energising properties that promote a good mood thanks to its invigorating aroma.

dōTERRA Eucalyptus essential oil is the fresh aroma of the shower and of massage, for those who prefer camphoraceous notes to floral ones. It is not a single species but a blend of five Australian eucalyptus species, including Eucalyptus radiata: rich in eucalyptol and alpha-terpineol, their leaves give an oil with a woody, light and invigorating scent.

Key benefits

• Gives off a woody, light and invigorating aroma.
• Helps cleanse the skin and scalp.
• Revitalises the skin for a healthy appearance and provides a refreshing sensation.
• Freshens the air.

Lemongrass essential oil is the lemongrass of Asian cooking, the one that flavours soups, curries and broths. Distilled in India from a tall grass grown by smallholder farmers, it smells of lemon with a herbal, sharp and slightly smoky note. Not to be confused with Java Citronella, its more floral cousin, which does not belong in the kitchen.

Key benefits

• Gives savoury and sweet recipes a lemony, invigorating flavour.
• Its tangy, smoky aroma brightens any room.
• Diluted, it cleanses and tones the skin and scalp, with a cooling sensation.
• Cleans household surfaces.

Wild Orange essential oil, sold by dōTERRA in Europe under the name Sweet Orange, is one of the most popular oils in the range. It is cold-pressed from the peels, those of one hundred and fifty-four oranges for a 15 ml bottle: the aroma is that of a freshly peeled orange, sweet and tangy.

Key benefits

• Lifts the mood and restores momentum when tiredness sets in.
• Refreshes the skin and brings it soothing qualities.
• Diffused with Frankincense, it creates fresh, clean air.
• Cleans surfaces and chases odours from the home.
• Naturally rich in limonene, which gives it its cleansing properties.

Green Mandarin essential oil is the gentlest citrus in the dōTERRA range, for those who find lemon too sharp. It is cold-pressed from mandarins picked while still green, when Brazilian orchards are thinned out: its sweet, slightly floral scent is clearly different from that of the ripe fruit.

Key benefits

• Gives off a fruity, sweet and energising citrus aroma.
• Adds a fresh citrus touch to water and recipes.
• Helps cleanse the skin and improve its appearance.
• Helps clean teeth and gums.
• Cleans surfaces and helps remove sticky residue and grease.

The On Guard essential oil blend brings together five oils: wild orange, clove, cinnamon bark, eucalyptus and rosemary. It is dōTERRA’s most sought-after blend, and its warm, spicy scent is recognisable the moment you open the bottle.

Key benefits

• Has an energising and uplifting aroma.
• Adds a spiced, warming citrus note to your hot drinks and desserts.
• Effectively cleanses skin and surfaces.
• Creates a warm, comforting atmosphere when diffused.

Citrus Bliss essential oil blend is the invigorating blend in the dōTERRA range, the one you diffuse to wake a room up. It brings together Wild Orange, Lemon, Grapefruit, Bergamot, Red Mandarin, Green Mandarin and Lime, with Litsea, tonka bean and vanilla absolute: the citrus fruits give the bite, the sweet notes keep the whole thing from turning into eau de toilette.

• Suits the moments when you need focus and clarity.
