What is eucalyptus citriodora oil?

It is obtained through steam distillation of Eucalyptus citriodora leaves, a species distinct from traditional Eucalyptus globulus. Its olfactory profile is markedly citrus, softer and less camphoraceous than other eucalyptus varieties, making it easier to blend into complex cosmetic formulations.

Its composition, rich in citronellal and citronellol, gives it well-recognized insect-repellent properties, alongside a refreshing scent highly valued in aromatherapy and cosmetic perfumery. Also available in a certified organic version for formulators who require organic traceability.
