DESCRIPTION OF CITRONELLA ESSENTIAL OIL
Citronella Essential Oil is steam distilled from the fresh leaves and stems of Cymbopogon nardus, a lemongrass plant native to Sri Lanka and Indonesia. It encapsulates the vigorous, grassy-green aroma of the C. nardus herb. Citronella oil is dominated by monoterpenes like geraniol, citronellol, and citronellal which provide its characteristic scent. The oil has been used for centuries in Indonesia's traditional Jamu herbal remedies. Today, citronella oil is commonly utilized for its cleansing, purifying aroma.
