Citronella Organic Essential Oil, steam distilled from Cymbopogon species like Cymbopogon Winterianus, is a renowned plant-based insect repellent and bio-pesticide. Indonesia and China produce about 40% of the world's citronella oil.

Beyond insect repellent, citronella oil helps with excessive perspiration, oily skin and hair, and acts as a deodorant. It soothes rheumatism and arthritis pain, resists flu and minor infections, aids digestion, and eases menstrual cramps. In vaporisers, it dispels fatigue, headaches, and neuralgia, promoting cheer and optimism. 

Historically, ancient cultures in India and Egypt used Cymbopogon grasses to repel insects, especially mosquitoes, which were abundant near water bodies and posed serious health risks.
