Plant Therapy Top 14 Singles Set: What’s Inside and How to Use Each Oil

Building a first essential oil collection, one bottle at a time, adds up fast, both in cost and in decision fatigue. Plant Therapy’s Top 14 Singles Set sidesteps both problems by bundling the fourteen most commonly used oils into a single box.

Here’s why it works well as a starting point, what’s actually inside, and how to use each oil once you have it.

Why Plant Therapy Top 14 Essential Oils is a Great Starter Set

Beyond the oils themselves, there are a few practical reasons this particular set makes sense if you’re just getting started.

It’s Cost-Effective: Buying essential oils individually costs significantly more than buying them together in this set, which makes it a practical way to build a collection without 14 separate purchases.

You Get a Mix of Aroma Families: The 14 essential oils span citrus, floral, herbal, woodsy, and spice families, giving you more range to experiment with blending and DIY projects than a single-family purchase would.

Oils are Sold in Dark Glass, Dropper Bottles: The oils are packed in dark glass bottles, which protect them from premature degradation from light exposure. Each 10 mL bottle has a dropper cap for controlled drop counts and easy use.

Bottles are Clearly Labeled: Each bottle has a label identifying its contents, quantity, directions for use, and basic precautions so everything stays organized and easy to find.

14 Oils All in One Place: Rather than accumulating oils one at a time, you start with a full working collection you can use right away.
100% Pure, Undiluted Oils: Each oil in the set is pure, with nothing added to dilute or bulk it out.

A Practical Gift: The set’s packaging and range of oils make it a solid gift option for someone who’s still deciding whether to try aromatherapy.

Once you find an oil you reach for often in your DIYs or blends, it’s worth considering buying essential oils in bulk rather than restocking single bottles.

Want more everyday uses for these oils, plus 11 more beyond this set? This list of essential oils and their uses offers a more detailed look at the aroma profiles of 25 oils, along with ideas for how to use each one.

Worth knowing: A set like this is a fast way to build a collection, but you don’t get to choose the individual essential oils, so you may end up with a few you use less often than others. If you already know you gravitate toward citrus or floral scents specifically, buying those oils individually may work better for you than a fixed set.

How to Create Scents for Different Moments Using the Top 14 Singles Set

With 14 oils on hand, it helps to think in terms of occasions rather than trying to learn all 14 at once.

Here’s a starting point for each.

Morning and Energizing

Peppermint, Sweet Orange, Lemon, and Pink Grapefruit all work well in a morning diffuser blend. Add equal parts Lemon and Peppermint to your diffuser for a bright start to the day.

Evening Wind-Down

Lavender, Clary Sage, and Bergamot make a quieter, softer diffuser blend for evenings. Diffuse Lavender alone about half an hour before bed, or combine it with Bergamot for a fuller aroma.

Cleaning

Lemon, Cinnamon Cassia, and Eucalyptus Globulus all add natural fragrance to homemade cleaning products. A few drops of Lemon in a homemade all-purpose cleaner add a fresh scent without synthetic fragrance.

Bath and Body

Patchouli, Frankincense Carterii, and Sweet Orange bring depth to bath and body recipes like sugar scrubs and bath salts.

Diffuser Blends, General

Beyond the combinations above, nearly all 14 essential oils can be diffused individually or blended. If you’re new to building your own blends, explore the full diffuser blend hub on my site. You’ll find lots of ideas and essential oil combinations for different occasions and seasons.

Tea Tree

Tea Tree has a fresh, medicinal aroma that works well diffused on its own or blended into a cleaning spray. For more details on this oil specifically, see our full guide.

Seasonal Picks from the Set

A handful of oils in this set lean toward certain times of year, so it’s worth knowing which ones to reach for as the seasons change.

Fall: Cinnamon Cassia, Clary Sage, Patchouli, Frankincense Carterii, and Sweet Orange bring the warm, spiced, earthy tones of the season. Explore the many fall diffuser blends you can create using essential oils from this top 14 singles set.

Winter and Christmas: Cinnamon Cassia, Frankincense Carterii, Sweet Orange, and Patchouli make cozy, festive diffuser blends.

Spring and Summer: Peppermint, Spearmint, Lemon, Pink Grapefruit, and Eucalyptus Globulus bring a brighter, cooling, citrus-forward feel.

Year-Round Staples: Lavender, Tea Tree, Bergamot, and Rosemary 1,8-Cineole aren’t tied to a particular season and work well any month.

Getting Started with the Basics

There are three basic ways to use any oil in this set: diffusing, an aromatherapy inhaler, or topical application with a carrier oil.

Diffusing: Choose a diffuser to suit your space and personal needs. Add a few drops directly to your chosen diffuser.

Aromatherapy Inhaler: A portable option for using an oil on the go, without diffusing into the room.

Topical Application: Always dilute with a carrier oil first. Follow the guidance on the bottle label or see our full [ADD LINK: Carrier Oil Guide] for more details.

A Quick Note on Precautions

Essential oils are concentrated, so a few basic precautions are worth keeping in mind, especially if you’re new to using them.

• Always dilute with a carrier oil before applying any oil to skin.
• Do a patch test with a new oil before using it more broadly.
• Keep oils away from eyes and other sensitive areas.
• If you have children or pets in the home, check with your pediatrician or veterinarian before diffusing or using oils around them.
• Store bottles away from heat and direct sunlight to help them last.

This essential oil safety guide includes a full breakdown of dilution ratios and oil-specific cautions.
