This Citronella Java Essential oil smells really good. It is stronger than other Citronella oils I have tried which could be due to it being Citronella Java vs. Ceylon. My other Citronella essential oils do not specify which version of Citronella it is. So far using this for the past few weeks I have experienced no headaches like I do with cheaper oils. I know citronella can also be used as a bug repellant but I use it mainly for the scent so I can't speak to how effect this would be used for that purpose.This oil has a lot number which I've noticed usually is only on bottles from companies that care about their oils from batch to batch. My only complaint, and this is a minor one that I can forgive given how well this works, is that there is no English on the bottle or packaging.Review For:Puressentiel Citronella Java Essential Oil, Aromatherapy Relief, Calming- 100% Pure, Organic & Natural - Therapeutic Grade, Premium & Certified Quality - Made in France – 0.3 fl oz

I go the small bottle (0.3 oz) of citronella.It's organic, which is very important to me.This is obviously the good stuff - smells great, pure, no additives, not watered down.My only complaint is that it's quite a bit more expensive than my normal brand.This is only 1/3 oz, yet they charge as much as I usually pay for 1oz.But I use a lot of citronella for homemade natural bug spray, so I get the 4 oz - and I often pay around $17 for 4oz of organic. It is much more cost effective to get the larger bottle from other brands.But if you're looking for a tiny bottle, to travel with etc, then this is great stuff.

This is a great Citronella Java essential oil. It is pleasant and refreshing. It also has good deodorizing qualities, insect repelling effects and antibacterial properties. The scent is mostly lemony with a peppery and woodsy undertone. It diffuses well in my ultrasonic diffuser and fills the room with a fresh, pleasant aroma. It makes the room smell nice and clean.Overall, I'm happy with this essential oil. It smells great and helps purify the room. The quality seems great. It is organic and has the scientific name Cymbopogon winterianus specified. The price is reasonable as well. It is worth giving it a try. Made in France.

Puressential makes some very nice essential oils and this citronella one doesn't disappoint. It has a good strong citrus with a bit of spice scent that is as you would expect from citronella. It's pretty powerful so you don't need many drops in a diffuser to fill the room with a great citronella scent. It works great in my 100ml diffuser with just 3 drops. The oil comes in a 10ml dark amber bottle with a Euro dropper top for easy dispensing. Another benefit of citronella, of course, is that it keeps the bugs away. :)All in all, I'm happy with this essential oil. It smells great and the specific source ingredient is listed on the box and bottle. Enjoy!

Citronella is known in the US as an insect repellent - it relieves the itching from mosquito bites by preventing them in the first place. This has a very strong citronella scent, which carries far. (I would put it on my shoelaces, not on my skin. YMMV).The label of the bottle is in multiple languages, and has what I think is an organic symbol from an Asian country, though not a USDA symbol.

This has a pleasant lemony scent mixed with the citronella, so much easier to tolerate than plain citronella.I put a drop or two on some cotton balls and placed them around my front porch, and it kept the bugs away.No more slapping my body and scratching bug bites. Next I applied a couple of drops to my shoe laces as a bug deterrent. Great for indoors to help cover up unwanted scents.Recommend, especially in the summer.

You are likely already familiar with the scent of citronella if you've used insect repellent or bug repelling candles. The latter is exactly what I've been using this essential oil for. I like to make my own candles and this is perfect for the outdoors ones.Sometimes essential oils don't have a strong smell, especially in a candle. However, this oil is very potent. You don't need much and it will overpower other scents. This is great because I can use less.Puressentiel is a reputable brand based out of France. You know you are getting good quality with their oils.
