dōTERRA Citronella

From the tall leafy grasses of Asia, Citronella essential oil has a crisp, fresh aroma with versatile uses. Citronella oil is an ideal adventure-companion for camping, hiking, and enjoying the great outdoors with its natural, herbaceous aroma. In addition, Citronella’s chemical components include citronellal and geraniol, both of which are excellent naturally sourced solutions for cleaning surfaces inside and outside the home. Citronella’s earthy, floral scent gives a positive, calming aroma and can be soothing to the skin and scalp when applied topically. This makes Citronella the perfect essential oil for all summer time (or year-round) activities!
