Organic Lemon Eucalyptus Essential Oil

Our organic lemon eucalyptus oil is derived from the leaves of the spotted gum tree (Corymbia citriodora) which primarily grows in northern Australia. The most prominent component in this is citronella, which most people are familiar with as a natural component in candles produced to ward off insects. 

Lemon eucalyptus oil can contain up to 98% citronella, and as such can be extremely effective as an insect repellant. The light, sweet scent of lemon eucalyptus is great to use in a diffuser through the summer months for this purpose and will promote a relaxing, uplifting atmosphere.
