Comparing the green notes

The earthy green part of the lemongrass profile is as useful as its citrus description. A product with herbal depth may create a different scent impression from one described primarily as sweet citrus. Compare the complete aromatic profile rather than selecting only by the word lemon.

The current lemongrass essential oil listing

Lemongrass Essential Oil is steam-distilled from the tall grass of the Cymbopogon citratus plant.

The following details are stated in the Ancient Infusions product listing. They describe this product, rather than every oil sold under a similar name.

Scent companions

Blends beautifully with eucalyptus, lavender, tea tree, and peppermint oils.

Treat these as aromatic comparisons, not quantities or permission to mix products. A formulation or fragrance device needs instructions appropriate to the actual ingredients and intended use.

Handling the actual bottle

Follow the oil label and any compatible device’s instructions. Do not ingest an oil sold for external or fragrance use, apply it directly without appropriate directions, or improvise a dilution. Avoid eye contact, keep it away from children and pets, and stop use if irritation occurs.

Keep the container closed and follow its storage and date guidance. If the intended use or concentration is unclear, ask the seller before using it.
