Lemon Myrtle Essential Oil

Latin Name: Backhousia citriodora
Plant Family: Myrtaceae
Extraction: Distillation of the leaves

Lemon Myrtle is intensive, refreshing and very, very lemon-like; the odour has been described, without undue exaggeration, as “more lemon than lemon”. The taste is similar, very intensive, pleasant and warm. It is a pale yellow mobile liquid.

It is a rainforest tree of about 8m, having dark green lemon-scented leaves to 100 mm long. It flowers prolifically with large bunches of small white flowers on the ends of the branches. It is a common garden plant in Brisbane, and about a million have been planted commercially for its lemon oil content

Pure Essential Oil - Available in 10ml, 25ml, 50ml & 100ml.
