Floral Essential Oils Sample Set: Lavender, Rosemary & Ylang Ylang for Everyday Wellness
The Azlok Floral Essential Oils Sample Set is a three-bottle starter pack—Lavender, Rosemary and Ylang Ylang, 10 ml each—meant for anyone who wants to try essential oils without committing to full-size bottles. It's a practical, affordable way to explore aromatherapy, skincare, haircare and DIY projects like candles and soap, all in one small kit.
At ₹299 for three steam-distilled oils, it works well as a first purchase, a travel set or a thoughtful gift. Below is how to make the most of each oil, along with honest safety notes you should read before you start.
What's in the set and what each oil does
Each oil in this pack has its own character and everyday uses:
- Lavender — soft, sweet-herbal aroma. A favourite for relaxation, bedtime diffuser blends, calming massage oils and simple skin care.
- Rosemary — sharp, green and camphor-like. Popular for focus, freshening a room, and hair-care blends where it's traditionally used to support scalp routines.
- Ylang Ylang — rich, deep floral. A little goes a long way; it adds a warm, exotic note to perfume-style blends, massage oils and lotions.
How to use them
These oils are concentrated, so they are almost always diluted or diffused rather than used neat.
In a diffuser
Add 3–6 drops total to the water in an aromatherapy diffuser. For a calming evening blend, try 3 drops Lavender and 1 drop Ylang Ylang. For a bright, wake-up mix, use Rosemary with a drop of Lavender to soften the edge.
For skin and body
Blend with a carrier oil such as coconut, almond or jojoba before applying to skin. A safe general dilution is 1–2 drops of essential oil per teaspoon (about 5 ml) of carrier oil. Lavender and Ylang Ylang suit facial and body oils; keep concentrations low on the face.
For hair
Rosemary is the classic pick here. Add a few drops to your carrier oil and massage into the scalp before washing. Do not apply undiluted oil directly to the scalp.
For DIY candles and soap
These oils can scent melt-and-pour soap, cold-process soap and candles. Add fragrance at the manufacturer's recommended usage rate for your base, and remember that natural essential oils can behave differently from synthetic fragrance oils in candles.
Safety notes worth reading
Essential oils are potent plant extracts. A few sensible rules keep them enjoyable:
- Always dilute before applying to skin, and do a patch test on your inner arm 24 hours before wider use.
- Do not ingest these oils.
- Keep away from children and pets, and avoid contact with eyes.
- If you are pregnant, nursing, or have a medical condition, check with a qualified doctor before use—Rosemary in particular is often avoided during pregnancy.
- Diffuse in a well-ventilated room and take breaks rather than running a diffuser for hours on end.
Buying and storage tips
A 10 ml bottle holds plenty of drops, so this sample set lasts longer than you might expect when you use oils by the drop. To protect quality:
- Store bottles upright, tightly capped, away from direct sunlight and heat.
- Keep them in a cool, dark cupboard—a windowsill is the worst spot.
- Note that pure essential oils are natural products, so shade and aroma can vary slightly between batches.
If you find a favourite among the three, you can move up to a full-size bottle later. Azlok stocks single oils and carrier oils too, which pairs well once you start blending your own recipes.
FAQ
Can I apply these essential oils directly to my skin?
No. Dilute them in a carrier oil first—about 1–2 drops per teaspoon of carrier—and patch-test before regular use. Undiluted essential oils can irritate skin.
How many drops should I use in a diffuser?
Start with 3–6 drops total in the water reservoir. You can always add more, but strong floral oils like Ylang Ylang are best used sparingly.
Is this set good for beginners?
Yes. With three versatile oils in small 10 ml bottles, it lets you experiment with aromatherapy, skincare, hair care and DIY candles or soap before buying larger sizes.
Which oil is best for sleep and relaxation?
Lavender is the usual choice for a calming, restful atmosphere, and it blends nicely with a touch of Ylang Ylang in an evening diffuser mix.
How long will these oils last?
Stored properly—cool, dark and tightly capped—essential oils typically stay good for a couple of years. Citrus oils fade faster, but these floral and herbal oils are fairly stable.
