Aromatherapy: Known for its mood-lifting, anti-anxiety, and energizing properties. Add a few drops to a diffuser to refresh and calm the space.

Home Fragrance: Use in candles, wax melts, potpourri, or room sprays for a bright and welcoming atmosphere.
Skincare (diluted only): May be added in small amounts to facial oils or creams to brighten dull skin, though care must be taken due to phototoxicity.
