Citronella Pure Essential Oil

Bright. Grassy.
More Than Summer.

Citronella is famous for outdoor blends, but good citronella is more nuanced than the harsh candle smell people expect. Poor-quality oil and synthetic citronellal can make it sharp, flat and unpleasantly functional.

Delune Citronella Pure Essential Oil is steam-distilled from Indonesian Cymbopogon winterianus grass and quality-assured through PristiQuant™ — Delune’s exclusive system of more than 40 checks relating to species identity, oxidation, adulteration and chemical integrity.

Fresh, lemony and lightly sweet, it brings a clean grassy brightness to patios, summer diffusers and fresh aromatic blends throughout the year.

The outdoor classic, cleaned up.

Why You’ll Love It

Fresh citrus-grass aroma

Bright lemon, green grass and a softly sweet aromatic finish.

Outdoor favourite

A classic choice for patio diffusers and fresh summer aromatic use.

Steam-distilled in Indonesia

Distilled from Java-type citronella grass for its characteristic citronellal and geraniol-rich profile.

PristiQuant™ assured

Checked for species identity, oxidation, chemical profile and potential adulteration.

How to Use

A fresh grassy oil for indoor or outdoor diffusion, summer blends and carefully diluted topical application.

Diffuser

Add 3–5 drops to your diffuser in a well-ventilated indoor space or covered outdoor area.

Create a blend

Pair with Lemongrass for extra brightness, Eucalyptus for freshness or Lavender to soften the profile.

Outdoor diffusion

Use in a suitable outdoor diffuser according to the appliance instructions. Do not place neat oil directly on furniture or fabrics.

Topical application

Dilute thoroughly in a suitable carrier oil before applying to the skin. Patch-test before first use.

Blending tip: Lavender takes Citronella from “practical summer oil” to an actually lovely aromatic blend. A useful little makeover.

Aroma

Bright lemon · green grass · softly sweet finish

Java Citronella essential oil is distilled from the long aromatic grass. Its natural profile is fresher and more rounded than the blunt citronella scent commonly associated with mass-market candles.

The balance of lemony, grassy and floral notes can vary subtly between harvests, reflecting the plant and distillation conditions.

Tested. Trusted. Transparent.

Quality-assured through PristiQuant™

Every batch is assessed through Delune’s exclusive PristiQuant™ protocol, with more than 40 checks relating to botanical identity, chemical profile, oxidation, terpene degradation and potential adulteration.

True Java Citronella identity
No hidden carrier oils
No intentional dilution
Protective amber glass

Distilled Slowly. Made to Linger.

Nothing Hidden. Just the Oil.

Every Delune Pure Essential Oil is verified through PristiQuant™ — Delune’s 40+ point system for authenticity, chemical profile, adulteration, oxidation and solvent residues.

Make It Part of the Ritual.

Diffuse it, blend it with a carrier oil for massage, or bring its aroma into baths, showers and thoughtful home rituals.

Are Delune essential oils genuinely 100% pure, or do they contain synthetic fragrance fillers?

Every Delune essential oil is 100% pure, single-origin, and entirely undiluted. We never use synthetic fragrances, extenders, parabens, or artificial additives. You are getting the pure, raw botanical extract exactly as nature intended for high-grade, conscious aromatherapy.

How does Delune verify the quality of its oils? Do you test each batch?

Yes. Every single batch undergoes our strict PristiQuant™ testing protocol, which subjects the oil to over 40 distinct chemical, safety, and purity checks—including GC-MS analysis. This scientific process verifies the true botanical identity of the oil and guarantees zero adulteration, ensuring maximum potency and complete safety.

Why doesn't Delune label its products as "Therapeutic Grade"?

Because "Therapeutic Grade" is an unregulated marketing buzzword, not a legitimate scientific standard. At Delune, we choose clinical transparency over industry hype. We don't rely on flashy labels; we prove our quality scientifically through our PristiQuant™ testing and our transparent Field to Sealed™ sourcing promise.

Why are Delune oils priced the way they are?

Because the price goes into the oil, not a sales chain. Delune is an independent brand with no consultants, distributors or multi-level commissions (so no, it is not an MLM). We sell directly to you and invest in rigorous PristiQuant™ testing and ethical sourcing instead.

Are these oils safe to use in the home, and does Delune offer full compliance transparency?

Absolutely. Transparency is a core pillar of Delune. All of our essential oils are fully compliant with global cosmetic and consumer safety standards. We track and provide full fragrance allergen transparency and maintain up-to-date Safety Data Sheets (SDS) so you can welcome our wellness rituals into your space with total peace of mind.
