This concentrated botanical treasure is a staple for refreshing home environments and elevating artisan soaps or bath care through its clean, invigorating scent profile. Its bold character makes it an indispensable addition for those seeking an uplifting sensory experience that feels both naturally vibrant and thoroughly sophisticated.
The Composition
Top Note
Sharp citrus zest opening
Vibrant, piercing, clean — the immediate citronella impact.
