Citronella is often used in soaps and candles because of its fresh scent. It can help to support a healthy
respiratory system and also aid in relaxation. Used topically, Citronella can make your time spent outdoors more
pleasant.

Citronella
It's great to keep mosquitoes away on the patio!
Thrilled With the Quality
I'm so happy with the quality of all the PT products I've ordered. The citronella oil is another great example of that. My kids and grandkids are camping all summer, and were thrilled that I was able to supply them with a safe alternative to conventional bug sprays that actually worked. That makes me really happy, too!
Smells just like expected
I donât necessarily love the smell of citronella but I am excited to use this to keep the mosquitos away this summer. Iâm planning on making some incense to put outside and maybe using it in some diy âbuzz offâ lotion bars.
Candles
I have all the ingredients to make candles for the back yard with this citronella scent! Can't wait to use
Not overwhelming
In the "old days", we would use a citronella oil during outdoor Tai Chi classes, but the scent was so overpowering I had to stop using it. This scent is not bad, and definitely not too strong. I just haven't tried it outdoors to see if it repels the bugs. I'll wear it on my next hike.
