Organic Lemon-Scented Eucalyptus Essential Oil

Are you looking for an essential oil with a sweet and refreshing lemon-eucalyptus note, rich in citronellal, and very different from classic eucalyptus, for summer cosmetic preparations and massage synergies? Herbes et Traditions Organic Lemon-Scented Eucalyptus EO (Eucalyptus citriodora) is dominated by citronellal (65-85%), not cineole. Its fragrance is fresh, lemony, and slightly rosy, quite different from Eucalyptus globulus or radiata. 10ml. Ecocert organic certified.

Aromatic and cosmetic profile

  • Very rich in citronellal (65-85%): the dominant monoterpene aldehyde — from the same family as Java citronella — responsible for the highly appreciated fresh-lemony note.
  • Fresh-lemony and soft floral fragrance: the rose-lemon note is more reminiscent of rose and citronella than classic eucalyptus. Highly appreciated in summer diffusion and in scented cosmetic preparations.
  • Cineole-free: does not share the oxide profile of Eucalyptus globulus. Useful for people sensitive to cineole.
  • 10ml: Ecocert Organic. Herbes et Traditions.

FAQ

Is lemon-scented eucalyptus the same as classic eucalyptus?
No. Lemon-scented eucalyptus (Eucalyptus citriodora) is rich in citronellal and contains practically no cineole. Eucalyptus globulus and radiata are rich in 1,8-cineole. They have completely different biochemical profiles and uses, despite having the same generic name.

Does lemon-scented eucalyptus smell like rose?
Yes, its lemon-floral note is reminiscent of both citronella and vaguely of rose, thanks to citronellol and isopulegol. A very pleasant and surprising aromatic profile for an eucalyptus.

Can you combine lemon-scented eucalyptus and geranium?
Yes, it is a very harmonious blend: both share floral-lemony notes (citronellal in lemon-scented eucalyptus, citronellol and geraniol in geranium). A highly appreciated floral-summer synergy.
