Citronella Pure Essential Oil

Bright. Grassy.
More Than Summer.

Citronella is famous for outdoor blends, but good citronella is more nuanced than the harsh candle smell people expect. Poor-quality oil and synthetic citronellal can make it sharp, flat and unpleasantly functional.

Delune Citronella Pure Essential Oil is steam-distilled from Indonesian Cymbopogon winterianus grass and quality-assured through PristiQuant™ — Delune’s exclusive system of more than 40 checks relating to species identity, oxidation, adulteration and chemical integrity.

Fresh, lemony and lightly sweet, it brings a clean grassy brightness to patios, summer diffusers and fresh aromatic blends throughout the year.

The outdoor classic, cleaned up.

Why You’ll Love It

Fresh citrus-grass aroma

Bright lemon, green grass and a softly sweet aromatic finish.

Outdoor favourite

A classic choice for patio diffusers and fresh summer aromatic rituals.

Steam-distilled in Indonesia

Distilled from Java-type citronella grass for its characteristic citronellal and geraniol-rich profile.

PristiQuant™ assured

Checked for species identity, oxidation, chemical profile and potential adulteration.

How to Use

A fresh grassy oil for indoor or outdoor diffusion, summer blends and carefully diluted body rituals.

Diffuser

Add 3–5 drops to your diffuser in a well-ventilated indoor space or covered outdoor area.

Create a blend

Pair with Lemongrass for extra brightness, Eucalyptus for freshness or Lavender to soften the profile.

Outdoor ritual

Use in a suitable outdoor diffuser according to the appliance instructions. Do not place neat oil directly on furniture or fabrics.

Body rituals

Dilute thoroughly in a suitable carrier oil before applying to the skin. Patch-test before first use.

Blending tip: Lavender takes Citronella from “practical summer oil” to an actually lovely aromatic blend. A useful little makeover.

Aroma

Bright lemon · green grass · softly sweet finish

Java Citronella essential oil is distilled from the long aromatic grass. Its natural profile is fresher and more rounded than the blunt citronella scent commonly associated with mass-market candles.

The balance of lemony, grassy and floral notes can vary subtly between harvests, reflecting the plant and distillation conditions.

Tested. Trusted. Transparent.

Quality-assured through PristiQuant™

Every batch is assessed through Delune’s exclusive PristiQuant™ protocol, with more than 40 checks relating to botanical identity, chemical profile, oxidation, terpene degradation and potential adulteration.
