Our Lemongrass Essential Oil has a strong, freshly herbaceous lemony aroma that is penetrating and tenacious.
Lemongrass is stimulating, refreshing, increases alertness and aids concentration. Lemongrass may help to relieve fatigue and aching muscles, and acts as an insect repellent. I always use Lemongrass when making shoe refreshers or when washing "sports" socks which have their own special aroma!
