Absolute Aromas selects only the finest quality essential oils available from around the world and this Citronella essential oil is no exception. Citronella has a powerful lemony aroma, which blends well with all citrus and woody oils and is widely used in household cleaning products, because of its anti-bacterial properties. This versatile oil is also revered for its 100% natural insect-repelling properties. A great oil to keep at hand during the summer months. Citronella comes in two main types -Java and Ceylon. Our pure, undiluted Citronella Essential Oil originates from Sri Lanka, which is the only source of the Ceylon type and is produced from the Lenabatu variety of citronella grass. Citronella has a powerful lemony aroma that blends well with all citrus and woody oils. For a natural air freshener – add 3 drops of Citronella, 3 drops of Geranium and 2 drops of Pine to a clean plant spray filled with water, shake well and spray into the air. Avoid polished surfaces and pets!

Great value, great product.
This is a really nice smelling citronella oil, distinctly citronella but with a softer edge. I use a couple of drops of citronella oil on the outside of our bedroom door at night to stop our cat scratching on it (for those that don't know cats hate citrus scents). This oil works perfectly for this purpose. It is very pungent and the smell does linger for 24-48 hours after using. The oil is in a 10ml bottle with a dropper top so only a drop comes out at a time, meaning 10ml will last for ages. Would recommend for anyone looking for a good quality, good value citronella oil.

Bought to ward off UFO's
In this case, the UFO's are Unwanted Flying Objects. I have moved to a property which had been empty for nearly two years. Flies and other objectionable creatures were around, both inside and out, in spite of a complete refurbishment. I decided on Citronella rather than a chemical product. I've added it to candles and so far, it has worked really well, only one Daddy Long Legs has had the audacity to gain entry to my premises! The smell is lovely and not overpowering, so I will continue to use it indoors, as well as outdoors.

It is best on market
It works. I always get bitten but 2 weeks in Turkey I got bitten once. That was on first night didn’t use enough. Put it on hanky firstThen dab on legs and arms I didn’t get bitten again. It smells lovely. On the bite I did get it was pretty bad and very painful but I did put it on the bite which helped with inflammation too. Left tissue in room overnight
