Essential oil: Citronella oil Java
Our 100% natural essential oils are highly concentrated, plant extracts that are obtained without artificial additives. The most common method is steam distillation, in which steam releases the valuable fragrances from flowers, leaves or resins. Cold pressing is used for citrus oils. These oils are particularly popular for their aromatherapeutic effect, promote relaxation, well-being and naturally improve the air in the room.
