How much do I need?

Lemongrass essential oil is clean, bright, and built to work. Steam distilled from the leaves of Cymbopogon citratus, it has a sharp citrus-green character that cuts through stale air, anchors home care formulations, and brings an energizing clarity to diffuser blends and wellness spaces. 

It is one of the most functionally reliable oils in our collection, equally at home in an all-purpose cleaner, a yoga studio diffuser, a post-workout body spray, or an outdoor insect deterrent recipe. Its scent is direct and purposeful rather than complex, and that straightforwardness is exactly what makes it so useful across such a wide range of everyday applications.

How to use

Diffuse to refresh indoor air, energize a space, and cut through stale or heavy room atmospheres. Lemongrass is one of the most effective air-freshening oils and is a popular ingredient in natural home care products including all-purpose cleaners, floor washes, and room sprays.
Frequently used in insect-deterrent formulas, outdoor blends, and patio diffuser recipes alongside citronella. Commonly added to candle and soap formulations for a bright, grassy citrus note that feels clean and invigorating.

Often included in yoga studio and wellness space diffuser blends for its uplifting yet centering quality. Used in post-workout body sprays, foot soaks, and muscle rubs when well diluted.

A popular addition to dry shampoo blends, hair rinses, and scalp care routines for its clarifying properties. Can be used in kitchen-adjacent cleaning formulas and dish soaps for a citrus-forward, functional scent.

Due to its sharpness, use at moderate dilution rates for any skin application and avoid use on sensitive skin.

Caution

Skin sensitivity may occur. Essential oils are highly concentrated and should be diluted before applying directly to the skin. Keep out of reach from children. If pregnant or breastfeeding please ask your doctor before use.
