Escentia Lemon Verbena Essential Oil - Standardised is a concentrated aromatic oil used in aromatherapy and scent-led body formulations where a bright, lemony herbal note is wanted. It is commonly used in soaps, hand and body lotions, salt scrubs, bath salts, candles, and diffuser-style blends. This is not a ready-to-use body oil or room spray, but a formulation ingredient that should be used in small amounts. Because it is listed as standardised, it is best treated as a consistency-focused aromatic material rather than assumed to be identical to a simple single-source essential oil.
♡ Why we love it: Lemon verbena has a beautifully lively scent that feels fresh, elegant, and quietly uplifting all at once. It adds a bright herbal-citrus lift to blends, and it is especially lovely in bath, body, and home fragrance recipes where you want something more refined than a straightforward citrus oil.

As always received excellent service from Essentially Natural. Thank you. I used the oil in my hand cream and the smell of the oil was very light - I had to almost double the % in my formulation, before I got that typical Lemon Verbena fragrance. A week later and the fragrance is still the on par.
