Origin: Australia

Lemon myrtle essential oil is derived from the leaves of the lemon myrtle tree (Backhousia citriodora), a native Australian plant known for its strong lemon scent. The oil is extracted through steam distillation, capturing the essence of the plant's aromatic compounds. This process preserves the oil's potency and purity, ensuring it retains its therapeutic properties.

The use of lemon myrtle dates back centuries, with Indigenous Australians having long recognized its healing properties. Traditionally, the leaves were used as a natural remedy for various ailments, including colds, sore throats, and skin conditions. The plant was also used for its aromatic qualities, providing a refreshing and uplifting scent in natural environments.
