One of my favourites, it is sweeter than lemongrass. I blend it with eucalyptus.

It smells nice but not how i expected. It smells quite similar to lemon grass. the smell is quite strong but if you like it then it’s very pleasant.

A lovely relaxing scent. I like to combine it with grapefruit or lavender essential oils for a calming scent in my oil burner. Quite strong so a little goes a long way (which is always a good thing!)
