Along with lemongrass, Citronella is one of the pervasive fragrant grasses grown in Asia. The citrus grasses are known to provide many health and fragrant benefits. They also repel some of the most persistent pests of the outdoors.
Using Citronella Oil in fragrances is a long-standing practice because the fresh, citrus scent is ideal for perfumes and beauty products. The lemon and wood scent pairs beautifully with other citrus scents, including orange and lemon; sandalwood is another perfect pairing. Citronella Oil is used in many upscale soaps and lotions because it leaves the skin feeling refreshed.
There are many applications enhancing health using Citronella. For wound care, Citronella has proven beneficial to starve off infections thanks to its anti-microbial properties. Additionally, Citronella is useful for preventing fungal outbreaks as well. Besides its delightful smell, Citronella disrupts how fungal cells replicate and spread. Further, Citronella shows promise for people looking to lose weight and lower cholesterol.
The most prominent use of Citronella Oil is to combat pests. The scent of Citronella repels mosquitos and other flying insects. Burning Citronella candles is a great way to enjoy the outdoors while avoiding the repeated assaults of these microscopic nuisances. Citronella Oil can be applied topically as well, making it a natural alternative to synthetic insect repellents.
