About this product
Sharp green citrus, made for fresh air
- The first impression is crisp and lemony, followed by a dry, grassy warmth.
- It suits a diffuser when you want a clean, outdoorsy atmosphere without florals or sweetness.
- The scent has a practical, summery character, often associated with patios, garden tables and open doors.
- Use it when blending fresher home fragrances, especially with other herbaceous or citrus-style oils.
- A little goes a long way in aromatic use, so start lightly and build the scent slowly.
Cymbopogon nardus, steam distilled
This organic citronella essential oil comes from dried grass of Cymbopogon nardus. Steam distillation draws the aromatic compounds from the plant without the heaviness of a pressed oil, giving citronella its recognisable bright, grassy profile.
How to use it safely
Add a few drops to a diffuser or oil burner, following the instructions for your chosen device. For skin use, dilute well in a suitable carrier oil and patch test first.
Do not take internally. Avoid use during pregnancy and with children under three unless guided by a qualified professional. Keep essential oils away from pets, and store the bottle closed, upright and out of direct heat.
Citronella in warm-weather traditions
Cymbopogon grasses grow in warm climates and have long been valued for their strong aromatic leaves. In places where people lived close to rivers and still water, their fresh, grassy scent became part of everyday outdoor life, especially around evenings and gathering spaces. Today citronella is still closely linked with summer rituals: garden tables, open windows, simple oil blends and the clean smell of air moving through a room.
