I love the scent of rosalina! Although my kids rarely get sick, I can hardly wait to try it out on them when they do! It would be perfect at nighttime to help them sleep

This is wonderful in the diffuser combined with bergamot, coriander and mandarin. Very relaxing, but somehow, also a perky and "happy" blend. I also found that rosalina gives me a lot of the benefits of eucalyptus without too much of the stimulating effect. A new aromatherapy favorite for me!
