This pure citronella essential oil is steam distilled from the aromatic leaves and stems of the Cymbopogon nardus or Cymbopogon winterianus grass. Known for its naturally refreshing properties, this 10ml bottle provides a crisp, bright, and slightly sweet lemon aroma to invigorate your senses and environment.

Versatile uses
  • Natural insect repellent: Citronella is well-regarded for its insect-repelling qualities, making it ideal for diffusers, candles, and homemade body sprays to keep bugs away during summer months and outdoor activities.
  • Aromatherapy: Diffuse a few drops to cleanse and freshen the air, uplift your mood, and boost energy. It is known to combat feelings of emotional fatigue.
  • DIY cleaning: Add to cleaning products for a deodorizing, citrusy-fresh scent. A few drops on a cotton ball can also help deter insects in closets.
  • Topical application: When properly diluted with a carrier oil like coconut or jojoba, it can help with excessive perspiration and oily skin. It is also known to help soothe muscular aches and minor skin irritations.

Product features
  • Size: 10ml bottle.
  • Bottle type: Amber glass to protect the oil's integrity from light degradation.

Important safety information
