dōTERRA Citronella Oil 15 mL

Sourced from the leaves of a tall grass native to Asia, Citronella essential oil offers a crisp, fresh aroma. A powerful pest repellent, Citronella essential oil helps keep creepy crawlers out of the house and off your skin and clothing, masking the human fragrances that insects find appealing. It’s an ideal companion for camping, hiking, and other outdoor activities.
