A Scent Built for Movement
I stock this one because the name actually matches the experience. Auric Blends built the Energy fragrance oil around bright mint and fresh rosemary, and the result is exactly what those herbs promise: a clean, lively lift that lands somewhere between a deep breath of cool air and a brisk walk through a kitchen garden. It’s not sharp or medicinal. It’s bright and purposeful.
The Escential Essences line has been Auric Blends’ workhorse for decades. These are cosmetic grade, skin-safe fragrance oils, blended in small batches in the USA. They’re not essential oils, and they’re not trying to be. What they do is deliver a consistent, long-wearing scent that moves with you through the day. The roll-on format keeps application clean and precise.
Mint and rosemary both carry deep roots in traditions that use scent as a tool for focus and vitality. Rosemary (Salvia rosmarinus) has been used across Mediterranean and European folk herbalism for centuries as a symbol of remembrance and mental sharpness. Mint, in its many species, shows up in nearly every global tradition where clarity and refreshment are called for. This oil doesn’t make claims about those traditions. It simply smells like someone who has their head clear and their feet moving forward.
How to Use the Energy Fragrance Oil
How to apply the Auric Blends Energy fragrance oil for best results.
- Warm the Oil First
Roll the bottle between your palms for a few seconds to warm the oil. This helps activate the fragrance and makes it easier to apply. Give the roller ball a gentle swipe on your inner wrist before applying anywhere else.
- Apply to Pulse Points
Apply to your pulse points: inner wrists, the base of your throat, and the inside of your elbows. These spots run warm and carry the scent throughout the day. One or two passes at each point is enough.
- Let It Settle on Your Skin
Breathe in slowly after applying and let the mint and rosemary open up on your skin. The scent shifts slightly as it warms, settling into a clean, herbal brightness. Give it a minute before layering anything else on top.
The Tarot Fellow Standard
Auric Blends has been making fragrance oils in the USA for a long time, and the Escential Essences line is their most consistent. I stock these because the quality control is reliable batch to batch, the roll-on format holds up with regular use, and the scent payoff is real at this size. The 1/2 oz bottle is a solid entry point if you’re new to the line, and it’s also the right size for travel or daily carry without bulk.
One practical note: fragrance oils sit differently on different skin types. If you run warm, the mint notes in Energy will pop quickly and you’ll get great throw. If your skin tends to be drier, apply right after moisturizing for the best longevity. Store the bottle upright, cap on, away from heat and light.

Frequently Asked Questions
This is a fragrance oil, not an essential oil. Blended in the USA with cosmetic grade, skin-safe oils, it is safe to apply directly to skin. For pure botanical essential oils for aromatherapy, I carry those separately.
Pulse points are the best spots: inner wrists, throat, inside of elbows, and behind the knees. Body heat at these points diffuses the scent steadily. Applying right after a shower, when pores are open, also helps the fragrance hold longer.

Store it upright with the cap on tightly, away from heat and direct sunlight. A drawer or cabinet works well. Properly stored, these oils keep their scent for a couple of years. Exposure to heat and light can cause the fragrance to fade faster.
