Our Citronella Essential Oil, extracted through steam distillation of the leaves, originates from the Citronella grass (Cymbopogon nardus) in Sri Lanka. This tall perennial grass, also known as "managrass," is wild-growing and undergoes a semi or full drying process before the essential oil is meticulously extracted through steam distillation. Known for its fresh, powerful, lemony scent with subtle woody notes, Citronella Essential Oil is a versatile addition to various products. Particularly noteworthy is its synergy with Cedarwood Essential Oil, creating a perfect blend for insect-repelling candles and sprays.
