Citronella is a tall, aromatic perennial grass native to Sri Lanka and Java. The essential oil is famous worldwide for its role as a natural insect repellent. It has a powerful, lemony, and slightly fruity-sweet aroma with a woody undertone. While often associated with outdoor candles, it has a long history in traditional medicine for its warming and clearing properties.

· Skin: Excessive perspiration and oily skin. It acts as a natural deodorant and can help balance sebum production.
· Respiratory: Helps to clear the head during colds and flu; its refreshing scent is often used to "cleanse" the air in sickrooms.
· Circulatory/Muscular: Arthritis and rheumatism. Its warming nature helps to stimulate circulation and provide relief to cold, stiff joints.
· Nervous System: Fatigue, headaches, and migraines. It is a refreshing oil that helps to "wake up" the nervous system.
Citronella is the "Oil of Purification." It is used to clear away negative energy and mental "fog." It is particularly helpful for those who feel emotionally weighed down or "plagued" by persistent negative thoughts, providing a sense of lightness and renewed clarity.
