Why you'll love it: Well, tea tree is not what most would consider a pleasantly scented oil but it's disinfecting properties are renowned. During World War II US soldiers were given tea tree oil to keep in their field kit for first aid applications. Like lavender, tea tree can be used on the skin undiluted, so if you find tea tree is too medicinal on its own, soften it with lavender.
