A confident name has to be lived up to. The Mr BIG men's essential oil blend does it with three essential oils: cooling peppermint and sharp lemon stand on an earthy, woody base of patchouli. Fresh on top, dark and masculine underneath — a 100% natural scent with a clear signature, no fragrance compositions.
Why patchouli?
Because it keeps the whole thing grounded. Mint and lemon on their own would be mere freshness; patchouli gives them depth and a character that stays in the room even after the first notes have flown off. The resulting atmosphere is bold and elegant — for a study, living room or bathroom, for anyone who has no time for scents that apologise for themselves. The fresh notes arrive first, the earthy base lingers longer — that is exactly how the blend is built. And if you are looking for a gift for a man who is hard to buy for, a small black 10 ml bottle with this name is a fairly safe bet: the name amuses, the scent holds its own.
Dosing an essential oil blend: less than you think
A few drops in the water of a diffuser or aroma lamp and that is it — the blend is concentrated and unfolds on its own. Start with two drops and add more gradually if needed — this scent's character builds fast and will not retreat into the background. Do not apply it undiluted to the skin, protect your eyes and keep the bottle out of the reach of children, stored somewhere cool and dark, where essential oils last longest. Even this purely natural scent contains fragrance allergens — not because we add anything, but because they are a natural part of essential oils. More in our article on allergens in cosmetics.
The Mr Divine men's soap has the same character — and if you are kitting out a whole men's shelf, round it off with the Captain shampoo bar.
