Types of Essential Oils for Summer

If you know a little about essential oils, you’ve probably heard them described or categorized by scent type. For example, “woody” or “earthy,” “citrus,” “herbal,” “floral,” etc. For hot, stuffy, or humid summer air, too many spicy or woody oils. Also, when applied to the body, spice oils produce a warming sensation rather than a cooling one.

So we like to stick with light and uplifting oils like herbal, citrus, and floral varieties. In the heat, we are more likely to feel drowsy or tired quickly, so it is good to use oils that are energizing and refreshing. A must have essential oil for summer.

The warm summer months are the perfect time to diffuse and blend light, energizing, herbal, floral and cooling essential oils. Oils from the peppermint, citrus and floral families are especially good in the summer.

Essential oil flowers and herbs picked from my garden

Below is a list of essential oils selected with summer use in mind. This is a highly subjective list. For example, I grow patchouli in the summer, and tend to enjoy the scent of patchouli all year round. I also like to add ginger essential oil to summer blends, but this is a warming essential oil. You can check out AromaWeb’s list of 110 oils in the Essential Oil Profiles area to see if there are additional essential oils that you personally like for summer.

I have added a few spicy essential oils like ginger. Spicy essential oils are strong and quite hot. A little goes a long way with the spice oil. They should not be spread over the room as they may irritate the mucous membranes. It is best to blend stronger spice oils with milder oils such as sweet orange essential oil (see section on Blending Spice Oils below).
