Our lemon oil is cold-pressed from the fresh peels of Citrus limon grown under certified organic practice, so the orchards skip synthetic sprays entirely. That matters more for citrus than almost any other oil, because pressed peel oils carry whatever touched the fruit's surface.
The aroma is the definition of fresh: zesty, sparkling, sharply sweet lemon exactly as it smells when you score a peel with your thumbnail. It lifts nearly any blend and gets along with peppermint, basil, lavender, rosemary, and every fellow citrus.
Lemon oil powers DIY countertop and glass cleaners, freshens diffusers on dull afternoons, scents dish soaps and laundry rinses, and brightens sugar scrubs at modest dilutions. Pressed citrus oxidizes with age, so keep it capped, cool, and moving through your routine.
Organic Citrus limon fruit is picked at peak ripeness in Argentina's Tucuman region for pressing.
Fresh peels are separated from the fruit right away, since the oil lives in the peel's surface.
The peels are cold-pressed to release the oil mechanically, with no heat and no steam or solvents involved.
Each batch is tested in a lab and the resulting certificate of analysis is published on this site.
The pressed oil is filtered, bottled promptly, and stored cool to protect its bright citrus aroma.
Pressed citrus oils are easy to cut with cheaper filler oils or reconstituted with isolated limonene, so knowing exactly what is in your bottle matters more here than with many other oils.
The certificate of analysis for the current batch of this organic lemon oil is published on this site, so you can check the results yourself before you buy a bottle or a bulk size.
