Essentially Natural Lemon Pure Essential Oil is cold expressed from fresh lemon peel and has a bright, clean and unmistakably zesty aroma. It brings an immediate citrus lift to diffusers, soaps, shampoos, deodorising blends and natural home-care products. Its fresh fragrance makes it an easy choice when a formula or room blend needs to feel lighter, sharper and more energising.

♡ Why we love it: We choose to offer Lemon Pure Essential Oil because it adds freshness without heaviness. It is equally useful as a cheerful standalone citrus note or as a bright top note in floral, herbal and cleaning-inspired blends.

This product is certified: Vegan and Beauty Without Cruelty.
