Lemon Essential Oil (5 Fold)
|
 Five Fold Oils: Five Fold Citrus Essential Oils are more concentrated than the regular citrus essential oils.
Through extended distillation, terpenes are removed from the oil rendering more suitable for cosmetic applications. Similarly, the increased concentration make the essential oil fragrance much stronger - perfect for soap & candle makers!
Botanical Name: Citrus limonum
Plant Part: Peel of the fruit
Extraction Method: Cold Pressed
Origin: Italy
Description: Lemon was originally a small thorny evergreen tree native to India. It is now common in Southern Europe, Florida and California.
Color: A light yellow
Common Uses: Lemon has been historically recognized as a cleanser. It is recognized as being antiseptic, and as having refreshing and cooling properties. Research has also shown lemon essential oil to enhance the ability to concentrate.
Consistency: Light
Note: Top
Strength of Aroma: The aroma is similar to fresh lemon rinds except richer and more concentrated.
Aromatic Scent: Lemon is highly prized for its high anti-bacterial properties. On skin and hair it can be used for its cleansing effect, as well as for treating cuts and boils.
History: The fruit was well known in Europe by the middle ages, and Greeks and Romans were advocates of its therapeutic properties. Lemon essential oil reached the height of its fame when the British began using the citrus fruit to counteract the effects of scurvy.
Cautions: Non-toxic, but may cause skin irritation in some. Lemon is also phototoxic and should be avoided prior to exposure to direct sunlight.

Absolutely amazing! I don't even have my lotion completely ready to sell yet and I already have a waiting list a mile long based on the sammples. I've mixed it with the Vanilla 10 fold for a wonderful warm lemon pastry like smell. Great Buy!!

Yum! The lemon is a very powerful scent, and really does make your mouth water just by smelling it. I will be using this in my soap as well as my hair scent.

I love citrus oils and want to wear them all the time. However, I found that the regular citrus oils irritate my skin. So I purchased the 5 Fold Lemon oil and mixed it with a grapeseed carrier oil and viola....no more skin irritation!!! Now I get to experience the lovely smell of lemon where ever I go, even at the gym!!

I had ordered this EO to use in my salt-scrub, and it's fabulous! It doesn't require much, it smells like summer, and I've even used it to get rid of ants! It's a Must-Have!

I use this Eo in my homemade cleaners all the time. It has a great mouth watering lemon scent that leaves your house smelling fresh. It’s also a great disinfectant, I no longer use toxic commercial chemicals for cleaning my home. Natural is better.

Lemon 5 fold is so awesome, I love it mixed with orange bitter in a spray bottle for a room freshener! Also, you can make your own "theives" if you mix lemon 5 fold, clove bud, cinnamon bark, eucalyptus, and rosemary Spanish.

Wonderful scent. Smells like fresh cut lemon without the cleaning product note that is present in many lemon oils. I love all of the 5-Fold Citrus oils ND offers. Very economical in bath and body products. Highly recommended!

I bought a large bottle of this because I use it all the time in everything...my cleaning solutions, my linen fresheners, air fresheners, soaps, etc. I mix it with other oils and baking soda to make my carpet freshener! What a clean, crisp, but soft scent! Thank you ND for helping me with solutions for my home environment!

This is an amazing lemon EO. Smells rich and true. And best of all, it doesn't fade in CP soap. Yes, it's a bit more than the non folded variety, but worth every cent!
