Detailed description
Eucalyptus Citriodora essential oil is derived from a tall, aromatic tree native to Australia. Unlike traditional eucalyptus species, this variety contains high amounts of citronellal, giving it a distinctly lemon-like scent with soft floral undertones. This makes it especially desirable for freshening blends, natural cleaners, and personal care products.
Extraction Method
Eucalyptus Citriodora essential oil is obtained through steam distillation of the fresh or partially dried leaves. This process concentrates its naturally occurring citronellal and other aromatic components.
Viscosity
The oil has a thin, watery viscosity, similar to other eucalyptus varieties, making it easy to blend.
Color
The oil is typically clear to pale yellow.
Odor Profile
Its aroma is fresh, lemony, slightly sweet, and mildly eucalyptus-like, with bright top notes and a clean, invigorating character. It is less medicinal than traditional eucalyptus oils, making it more versatile in fragrance blends.
