INCI: Cymbopogon winterianus

Escentia Citronella Pure Essential Oil is a single-ingredient essential oil from Cymbopogon winterianus , valued for its fresh, bright, citrusy-green aroma and its versatility in aromatherapy and home fragrancing. It is especially popular in diffuser blends, room sprays, and outdoor-use aromatic blends where a clean, lively scent is wanted. This is a pure essential oil, not a ready-to-use body spray or diluted home fragrance. Because it is concentrated, it should be used with care and properly diluted for skin application.

♡ Why we love it: Citronella is so much more than a practical outdoor favourite. Its crisp, uplifting character brings a wonderfully fresh feel to diffuser blends and natural home fragrancing, making it a useful staple for both everyday aromatherapy and seasonal blending.
