Features & Benefits
Powerful yet gentle insect repellent.
Unique lemon-herbal aroma.

The perennial grasses of the Cymbopogon plants native to Indonesia, Sri Lanka, and China were renowned for their effectiveness as a natural insecticide. In the early 1900s, Citronella was commonly used for camping and outdoor activities due to its insect-repelling properties.
Citronella Essential Oil is not only effective in repelling mosquitoes, but it also possesses a delightful citrus and fruity scent, perfect for use in perfumes, soaps, and incense. Moreover, one of its active components, geraniol, has antimicrobial properties that make it an excellent choice for use in natural cleaning products.
