I love my lemongrass in the morning! At first the smell is overpowering and almost unpleasant, but then comes the mild, delicious after-smell! Once mixed with a carrier its all mild and pleasant, and so uplifting! Perfect for morning massage or linen sprays.

I am just SOOO in love with this oil . It has such a sweet-lemony, soothing smell .Very relaxing but rejuvenating at the same time... if that didn't make sense ,you gotta try it to understand!!! And i assure you won't be disappointed. I mix with mandarin or sweet orange essential oils and use it in my melt and pour soaps and salt/ sugar scrubs . It smells good enough to eat!!! lol . The scent fills the whole bathroom after each use! Great quality, great price! A MUST HAVE!

Again, another tried and true essential oil winner from ND!! This is a strong and stable lemongrass that I would not be without. Rich with depth and blends incredibly well with ND's Patchouli EO. Great value for the price.
