## About
Steam rising in the morning shower, a blend of lemongrass and rosemary, and the day begins with a clear head. Lemongrass has a delightful, sparkling-clean scent, stimulating and invigorating, made for early starts and the long middle of the afternoon.This oil is steam-distilled from ethically farmed Cymbopogon flexuosus grown in Nepal. The herb has a long history in traditional Indian medicine, and the oil brings a fresh, lifting scent to a room when diffused. In a blend it behaves as a middle note rather than a top note, so some blenders reach for it in place of lemon essential oil.DetailsBotanical name: Cymbopogon flexuosusOrigin: NepalMethod: Steam-distilled grassGrowing: Ethically farmedBlends with: Bergamot, Cedarwood (all types), Geranium, Lemon, Niaouli, Palmarosa, Petitgrain, Rosemary and Tea TreeShelf life: about 2 to 3 years after openingHow to useDiffuse it, or blend it with rosemary for an invigorating morning shower blend.
