IMISOZI IGIHUMBI 15mls
Imisozi Igihumbi draws its name from the hills themselves, igihumbi, meaning one thousand, laid across imisozi, the hills. Rwanda did not earn the name Land of a Thousand Hills by accident. Before the city stirs, before the motos begin and the day finds its shape, there is a moment on those hills where the air is cold and green and perfectly still. This blend was made for that moment and for bringing it inside.
The fragrance
Lemongrass opens the blend with a warm, grassy citrus brightness — the note that hits the room first. Citronella follows, sharper and more electric, deepening the citrus character with a clean green edge. Artemisia brings a dry, cool herbaceous quality underneath — faintly woody, faintly medicinal — the scent of something that belongs to this soil. Eucalyptus closes at the base with a cool, slightly camphorous freshness that lingers after everything else has opened. The overall character is green, citrus-forward, and herbal. Not floral. Not sweet. The kind of scent that feels like it belongs outdoors but is perfectly at home inside.

How to use
Add 2–4 drops to your diffuser with water from sundown onwards. For clay burner use, place a tea light inside the base, fill the dish three-quarters with water, and add 2–5 drops. The warmth releases the oils continuously, keeping the room scented and protected through the evening. For topical use, dilute 3–4 drops in one tablespoon of carrier oil and apply to exposed skin before going outside. Patch test before first use.
