Botanical Name: Eucalyptus Corymbia citriodora
Country of Origin: Australia

Eucalyptus Lemon Scented Gum is a very fresh, crisp, very invigorating lemon aroma. Good as a room freshener and for insect protection.

Lemon Eucalyptus owes much of its distinctive lemon fragrance to citronellal, which has been used for many years as a natural insect repellent and is now widely sought as a source for the synthesis of an even more effective repellent, PMD, which rivals the notorious DEET.

It is widely used in soap-making and related products. In a properly formulated lotion or spray, it can be a useful deterrent to many insects. In a dilute combination with Melaleuca oils such as Tea Tree, Nerolina, or Rosalina, it makes a very effective and refreshing addition when diffusing.

Lemon Eucalyptus is a refreshing, clearing and invigorating essential oil that offers an attractive alternative to standard Eucalyptus. It is softer, blends more easily and is more suited to children and those who are feeling mentally or physically fragile.
