The pure essential oils that make our home feel calm, fresh and cared for
Scent is one of the quickest ways I know to change the feeling of a room. A few drops of lavender in the diffuser at bedtime, something fresh and zingy on a busy afternoon, a little ylang ylang in a bath oil when I finally get a moment to myself.
For all of those little rituals, I use Tisserand. It’s one of the most trusted names in aromatherapy in the UK, and its oils are 100% natural and certified vegan.[1]
Here’s my guide to the Tisserand oils I recommend, how I use each one, and the simple safety tips I always follow.

Why I trust Tisserand
Tisserand’s story began when aromatherapy pioneer Robert Tisserand launched the UK’s very first range of 100% natural pure essential oils, sourcing the ingredients himself and bottling them at his home in London.[1]
Today, the oils are blended and bottled in a quality-certified centre in the South Downs, West Sussex. Every oil is 100% natural, pure, vegan, cruelty-free and non-GMO, and Tisserand says it works only with ethical, responsible growers.[1]
💖 100% natural. Pure essential oils with no synthetic fragrances.[1]
💖 Vegan Society certified. Across all products, and cruelty-free.[1]
💖 Ethically sourced. Tisserand works with responsible partners who meet strict ethical and quality standards.[1]
💖 Organic options. Many oils, like lavender, rosemary and ylang ylang, are organic.[2]

My Tisserand favourites
Organic Lavender: for evenings
Steam-distilled from the flowering tops of Lavandula angustifolia, with a fresh floral scent.[2] This is the oil I use most, in the diffuser as part of my evening routine.
“This oil has become such a calming part of my evening routine. I love how just a few drops can help me relax, unwind, and create a peaceful space at the end of a busy day.” - Georgie x
Geranium: for a happy home
A soft, sweet, rosy oil steam-distilled from the leaves of Pelargonium graveolens.[2] I love it in the diffuser in the afternoon.
“I love how uplifting and balancing this oil feels. It’s one of my favourites for creating a calm, happy atmosphere at home.” - Georgie x
Organic Ylang Ylang: a little luxury
A rich, floral oil steam-distilled from flowers grown without man-made fertilisers or pesticides.[2] I add a drop or two to a bath or body oil.
“I love how this oil transforms any space into a tranquil oasis. It also adds a beautifully luxurious touch when blended into bath or body oils.” - Georgie x
Organic Peppermint and Eucalyptus: for freshness
Peppermint is strong, menthol-rich and refreshing, and eucalyptus has a bracing, clearing aroma. Tisserand says both are 100% pure, vegan and free from synthetic fragrances.[2]
I love either in the diffuser on a sluggish afternoon, or a drop of eucalyptus in a bowl of hot water for a refreshing steam.
Organic Rosemary: for busy days
A bright, herbal oil that pairs beautifully with citrus.[2] I use it in a desk-side diffuser, and in my natural hair care routine, always diluted in a carrier oil.

How I use essential oils at home
💖 In a diffuser. A few drops in water, following the diffuser’s instructions.
💖 In the bath. Mixed into a bath oil or carrier oil first, never dropped straight into the water.
💖 In massage. Diluted in a carrier oil like sweet almond or jojoba.
💖 On a tissue. A drop or two to breathe in on the go.
My safety tips
💖 Always dilute. Never apply undiluted essential oils to your skin.
💖 Don’t swallow them. Essential oils are for external and aromatic use.
💖 Children and pets. Keep bottles out of reach, and check the label before using around little ones or pets.
💖 Pregnancy and health conditions. Please check with your GP or midwife before using essential oils if you’re pregnant, breastfeeding or have a health condition.
💖 Follow the label. Each Tisserand bottle has its own directions and cautions.
A gentle note on aromatherapy
Aromatherapy is about using plant scents to create a feeling: calm, focus, freshness. Tisserand describes the traditional uses of each oil on its pages, and I love using them as part of my everyday rituals.[2]
