dōTERRA Cheer® Essential Oil Blend - 5ml
dōTERRA Cheer® Essential Oil Blend - 5ml
Cheer blends nine oils into one 5ml bottle — Wild Orange, Clove, Star Anise, Lemon Myrtle, Nutmeg and Vanilla make up the first half of the list, with Ginger, Cinnamon Bark and Zdravetz rounding it out. Zdravetz is the least familiar name among them: a mountain herb from the Balkans, related to geranium but a different species entirely, grown mostly at altitude in Bulgaria.
The aroma is fresh, spicy and warm — Wild Orange and Lemon Myrtle give it a citrus edge, Clove, Star Anise, Ginger and Cinnamon Bark build a warm spiced middle, and Vanilla softens the finish. It reads closer to a spice rack than a fruit bowl, with the citrus sitting in the background rather than leading.
It comes as a dropper bottle, which suits a diffuser or your own hand-blended mix as easily as using it neat — some people add it on its own, others pair it with Wild Orange for more citrus or Cinnamon Bark for more spice. Because Wild Orange is a cold-pressed peel oil, 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 Cheer actually smell like?
Fresh, spicy and warm — Wild Orange and Lemon Myrtle give it a citrus edge, Clove, Star Anise, Ginger and Cinnamon Bark build a spiced middle, and Vanilla softens the finish.
What's in the bottle?
Nine oils — Wild Orange, Clove, Star Anise, Lemon Myrtle, Nutmeg, Vanilla, Ginger, Cinnamon Bark and Zdravetz, a Balkan mountain herb related to geranium but rarely used outside Bulgaria.
What does it blend well with?
Wild Orange reinforces the citrus top note, while Cinnamon Bark or Clove push it further into spice — both are already in the bottle, so more of either just leans the aroma one way.
How many drops should I use in a diffuser?
Three to four is the usual starting point for an average-sized room.
How far does a 5ml bottle go?
At three to four drops a session, one bottle lasts a good few weeks of regular diffusing.
