Citronella Oil
Harvested from the rich agricultural belt around Kannauj, India, our Citronella Oil Java reflects generations of traditional distillation mastery. At Oils India, we carefully extract this premium-grade essential oil for both therapeutic and perfumery use, delivering unmatched purity and a refined aromatic profile tailored for professional B2B needs.
🌿Aroma Profile & Uses
Citronella Oil Java offers a lively scent journey, beginning with a crisp, citrusy burst that evolves into fresh green and mildly sweet notes. It settles into a soft woody base, leaving a clean and refreshing trail. This dynamic fragrance makes it a valuable component in fine perfumery, enhancing citrus blends with brightness and lift. Beyond fragrances, it is widely used in cosmetics, uplifting aromatherapy formulations, aroma chemical processing, and personal care products requiring natural insect-repelling properties. It is also highly suitable for soaps, candles, pharmaceuticals, and eco-friendly cleaning solutions.
