Lemon Tea Tree Essential Oil 50ml

Fresh, lemony and slightly herbaceous, this lemon tea tree essential oil brings a bright, astringent scent to a room without feeling sweet or perfumed. It is steam-distilled from the leaves of Leptospermum petersonii, an Australian plant with a crisp aromatic character and a clean, green edge.

The scent in the room

• The first impression is sharp citrus, more leaf and rind than sugary lemon.
• A pungent herbal note follows, giving the aroma a grounded, outdoorsy feel.
• It suits moments when you want the air to feel clearer and more awake.
• The amber bottle and black ribbed cap keep the look simple, practical and apothecary-like.
• Its fresh profile blends naturally with woody, resinous, floral or other citrus oils.

Leaves, steam and Australian origin

This oil comes from the leaves of Leptospermum petersonii, sourced from Australia and extracted by steam distillation. Steam distillation is commonly used for aromatic leaves because it carries the volatile scent compounds away gently, without the pressed-rind character of a cold-expressed citrus oil.

How to use it with care

Add a few drops to a diffuser or oil burner, following the guidance for your device. For skin use, essential oils should be diluted in a suitable carrier oil first, then patch tested before wider use.

Keep the bottle tightly closed, away from heat and direct light. Avoid use during pregnancy, around young children, or around pets without advice from a qualified professional.

Its place in aromatic practice

Lemon tea tree sits in the same broad Australian aromatic family as other leaf oils valued for their brisk, camphoraceous freshness, but its character is distinctly lemony rather than medicinal-smelling. In modern aromatherapy and natural perfumery, oils like this are often chosen for room blends, seasonal scenting and simple daily rituals: a clean note in the hallway, a sharper edge in a study, or a green citrus lift beside the bath.

Common questions

Is lemon tea tree the same as lemon oil?
No. Lemon tea tree oil is steam-distilled from the leaves of Leptospermum petersonii, while lemon oil is usually taken from citrus peel. The scent is lemony, but greener and more herbaceous.

Can I apply it directly to skin?
No. Essential oils should be diluted in a carrier oil before skin use, then patch tested first.

Is it suitable for use around pets?
Use caution. Many essential oils are not suitable around cats, dogs and other animals, so seek professional guidance before diffusing or applying them in a pet household.
