Lemon Essential Oil

Lemon Essential Oil

Lemon essential oil is cold pressed from the outer peel of fresh Citrus limonum fruit. Although the lemon tree originated in Asia, much of today’s production comes from Sicily. It takes approximately 3,000 lemons to produce 1 kg of essential oil.

 

Bright, sharp, and clean, Lemon oil is valued in aromatherapy for its refreshing, clarifying character. Its crisp citrus aroma makes it a popular choice in diffuser blends, natural cleaning products, and revitalising massage formulations.
