Citronella Essential Oil Organic 50ml

• The first impression is citrus-like and lively, with a dry green edge rather than sweetness.
• It suits moments when you want a cleaner, more open atmosphere around the home.
• Its bold character works well in diffuser blends where you want the scent to be easy to notice.
• Citronella is often chosen for outdoor-season rituals, especially in plant-based repellent traditions.
• The aroma pairs naturally with other fresh, herbal or citrus oils, if you like to blend your own scents.

This oil comes from dried citronella grass, botanically known as Cymbopogon nardus. Steam distillation carries the aromatic compounds from the plant into the finished essential oil, giving citronella its recognisable lemon-grass brightness and green, herbal bite.

Cymbopogon grasses grow across warm regions, and citronella has long been associated with practical outdoor living in places where insects gather near water and humid ground. In modern use, the oil is widely known for its place in plant-based repellent blends, as well as in candles, room scenting and summer aromatherapy mixes. Its appeal is simple and direct: a clean, grassy aroma that feels connected to open air, verandas, garden evenings and the small rituals of keeping a space fresh.

Add a small amount to a suitable diffuser or oil burner, following the instructions for your device. For skin use, always dilute well in a carrier oil and patch test first.

Do not take internally. Avoid use during pregnancy and with children under three. Keep essential oils away from eyes, pets and polished surfaces, and store the bottle tightly closed in a cool, dark place.
