Description: Lemon essential oil boasts a fresh and invigorating citrus aroma that instantly refreshes and revitalizes. Its vibrant scent is perfect for creating a pleasant atmosphere and enhancing mood. Originating from Italy, lemon essential oil has been valued for centuries for its beneficial properties. Unlike steam-distilled oils, lemon oil is extracted from the fruit's peel through cold pressing, ensuring its purity and high quality without any additives. This potent yet refreshing aroma not only supports a healthy immune system but also adds a clean, citrusy fragrance to your cleaning products, making it an excellent choice for freshening up your home.
