Description
Citronella Essential Oil is one of the most commercially important essential oils globally — and the world's most widely used natural mosquito repellent ingredient. Steam distilled from the aromatic grasses Cymbopogon nardus (Ceylon Citronella) or Cymbopogon winterianus (Java Citronella), pure Citronella Essential Oil is the primary natural active ingredient in mosquito repellent candles, sprays, lotions, patches, coils, and personal care products manufactured across India and internationally.
