dōTERRA Adaptiv™ Essential Oil Blend - 15ml
Adaptiv blends eight oils into one bottle — Wild Orange, Lavender, Copaiba, Spearmint, Magnolia, Rosemary, Neroli and Sweetgum. Magnolia, Neroli and Sweetgum are less familiar names on a label than Lavender or Wild Orange, and each adds its own note rather than sitting quietly in the background.
The aroma is sweet, citrusy and floral, with Wild Orange and Spearmint giving it a brighter top note than most blends in the range, and Neroli and Magnolia adding a floral depth underneath. It reads as citrus-forward at first, then settles into something softer after a minute or two.
It's the blend some people keep on a desk or reach for before walking into a meeting, on its own in a diffuser or paired with Wild Orange for a brighter top note. Because Wild Orange and Neroli are both cold-pressed citrus oils, keep treated skin out of direct sun or UV for twelve hours afterwards, the same rule that applies to any citrus-containing blend.

Common questions
What does Adaptiv smell like?
Sweet, citrusy and floral — Wild Orange and Spearmint lead, with Neroli and Magnolia adding a floral note underneath and Copaiba and Sweetgum rounding out the base.
What's actually in the bottle?
Eight oils — Wild Orange, Lavender, Copaiba, Spearmint, Magnolia, Rosemary, Neroli and Sweetgum.
Can I wear it on my skin during the day?
Yes, once diluted with a carrier oil — just keep treated skin out of direct sun or UV rays for twelve hours afterwards, since Wild Orange and Neroli are both cold-pressed citrus oils.
What does it blend well with?
Wild Orange is a common pairing, since it's already in the bottle and reinforces the citrus top note. It also works well on its own.
How many drops should I use in a diffuser?
Three to four is a good starting point for an average-sized room.
